They say women are from Venus and Men from Mars
So totally Different, born from different Stars
We're so beautiful, all sensual curves
He's just all Angles, all tension and nerves

He just grunts, I like to just cry, 
He shuts down, I ask him why?
He says “we’re good,”, I disagree
He wants some action, I say "we'll see"

He says he’s “fine,” that’s all I get
One single word and no regret
I ask what’s wrong, but he checks the score
Giants suck, but I'm wanting more

We’re so different, total black and white
He says “It’s fine,” I say “Not quite”
Two different Planets, same deep emotion
Mars meets Venus: It's Pure Devotion
His weird plus mine, we push, we shove
Different worlds, but still in love
He's iron strong, I'm crystal glass
He'll bend and bitch, but I'm built to last
Mars meets Venus: yeah what a blast!

He’s got one towel, and when it hits the floor
he Calls it a system — I just can't do this more.
When I'm cold in bed, like a piece of ice.
but distracted with the game: he says, "uh huh that's nice."

If I nudge his things, he fakes a Roar
cuz he knows it's in same place as it was before
He buys the same shirt in every shade
Says, “This one’s different.” but I can't believe what he paid

We’re so different, total black and white
He says “Today” I say “No, Tonight”
Two different worlds, same deep emotion
Mars meets Venus: It's Pure Devotion

bright Red lipstick, a little black skirt
He tries to look away as I begin to flirt
I uncross my legs, his hands hold me tight
Cuz Mars might be orbiting Venus Tonight

He needs five minutes, but I need a talk
He needs a nap — I need a walk
He hears one thing, I heard another
“Call your mom?”, no “Call your brother”

He’ll drive in circles, to prove a point
won’t ask for help, pride in every joint
“Relax,” he says, “I know where to go.”
"They changed the Exit". I whisper, “yeah I know.”

We’re so different, total black and white
He says “Today” I say “No, Tonight”
Two different worlds, same deep emotion
Mars meets Venus: It's Pure Devotion

He says I overthink every line
I say he under-feels half the time
He calls it simple, I call it deep
He starts to snore — I can’t fall asleep

He says I’m fire, I say he’s stone
He says I’m chaos — I say he’s tone
He wants the now, I want the why
He sees the ground, I see the sky

We’re so different, total black and white
He says “It’s fine,” I say “Not quite”
Two different worlds, some weird attraction
Mars meets Venus in a chain reaction

We’re so different, total black and white
He says “It’s fine,” I say “Not quite”
Opposite sides of the same blue sky
Different Worlds, but we still try

We’re so different, total black and white
He wants to go left, I want to turn Right
Two strange planets, with stars above
Polar Opposites: But we call that "Love"
