June 1st is Martian Day
It'll be sensational
Putting on a show, a Space Opera
That Sounds fine, only…
Only What?
Ehh you realize of course these things cost like crazy kerflawful
The Martians are coming
On June 1st the product will be unveiled
Well don't you read the papers Mr?
June 1st is Martian Day
June 1st is Martian Day
Except the theme will be the "World of Tomorrow"
The Martian World
and my client would like it to be a gay affair
Now a great pressure has fallen over the crowd
It's quite a sit to see these thousands of people standing here expectantly
hearing only the great regular sigh,
"I brought you here"
uhh ohh ahh Ladies and Gentlemen, [UP] Here comes the Martian Continuum
This is almost at the climax of the show
The Martians have landed from big pink balloons
Open that window, I want to have a look at those Martians
Expectantly, hearing only the great regular sigh of their masked breathing
Fainting!?
That wasn't in the act!
Go Away Please Go Away
HA HA HA
I don't really want to talk about it

Kid with the Dream

What are your feelings right now?
I mean, you're obviously very disappointed, is this something that…
I'm not that disappointed
Is this something that in a couple of days you're going to really appreciate?
I'm going to start with a short or long, I don't know, I'll try to keep it short, Story of a young kid who dreamed!
I know it must be very hard to analyze now but, would have you done anything differently?
uhhh I could have done better? It's… that's not really the point. I'm just talking about a few moments where the kid stopped dreaming, and today was one of them, Not gonna really tell why.
So from now on the kid is going to play for himself
And people around me, what they going to tell me how we're going to go through this journey together
But tonight was like the How you call it, the top of the mountain.
But again the kid that was dreaming is not anymore in me after today
He was unreal.
The kid was doubting if he should continue of dreaming big.
And I'm not going to explain why exactly it will be tougher to continue when it's like this.
When I was 6 years old, I mean then the time goes fast. When you're like 12 on the TV, big, Fans supporting, you're a big star.
You dream of being there.
People coming to support you even if probably they don't know who you are.
It's great moments and that's the moment when you're like I want to be there.
You dream of being there.
There are some moments where I think this kid was doubting if he should continue to dream about those big things or not.
He was unreal
You dream of being there
He was unreal
You dream of being there
You could tell his heart was in his mouth for a moment there
You dream of being there
He was unreal
You dream of being there
Can you imagine
He was unreal
You dream of being there
Can you imagine
He was unreal
You dream of being there
Can you imagine a young kid
He was unreal
Take controls of these moment
Don't say anything
Rules are for who?
For who?
Make him love
Rules are for who?
Make him run
Rules are for who?
For who?
For who?
For who?
Rules are for who?
Don't say anything
That's stupid
That's stupid
That is going to be bad thing because everybody's talking that they need new guys, some either style I tried you know
There were talks like people saying we really want young generation to go for it to be better to be stronger, So I tried something new,
and I was like pumped up, I gave them something new.
I don't celebrate my wins.
I just stay calm
I was like yeah let's try to give them a hard time
I do my job and Bam!
Done.
Well I guess those people were lying
because every time I really didn't see much people who wanted me to win
Run, Run, Run
You are a, how can I call it, Small Cat.
Run, Run, Run
Run, Run, Run
Run, Run, Run
I got a little bit crazy, I felt, at least with myself
Run, Run, Run
The crowd, is that what the…?
About the story, I'm not going to answer questions.
Most important that I manage to continue fighting
I tried my best, like I really tried
Run, Run, Run
Run, Run, Run
Talking about a few moments where the kid was dreaming, "I could have done better".
Dreamed Dreamed Dreamed
Dreamed Dreamed Dreamed
About the story sorry Ela, I'm not going to answer questions.
The Kid is going to tell why

erahh, I'm stuck
erahh, I'm stuck
erahh, I'm stuck
Huh?
erahh, I'm stuck in this corner
Huh?
I'm stuck
Yeah, we heard
erahh, I'm stuck in this corner
yeah we heard
I'm Stuck
I wouldn't be surprised
I'm stuck in this corner
You Sound Goofy
You understand how it works Mr?
How?
By magic?
.…Yeah
I remembered
Thought it might be that at first
well it's the only possible explanation but it's ridiculous
Maybe
This...is quite a shock
But you do believe me, don't you?
I guess i suppose I must
I've been reading up on time theories.
Nobody seems to know much about them
Evidently time exists parallel in another dimension
How did it happen?
I can't believe it
But the fact remains, I'm here with full knowledge of my future identity
erahh, I'm stuck
erahh, I'm stuck
all i know is here I am
erahh, I'm stuck
erahh, I'm stuck
here i am
i'm stuck in this
erahh, I'm stuck
but i rejected it
erahh, I'm stuck
It wouldn't fit the facts
Here i am
erahh, I'm stuck
erahh, I'm stuck in this magic?
Yeah!!!
