They formed in 1975, originally called China, with Sumner Crane, Constance 'China' Burg & Nancy Arlen. The band appeared on the New York noise radar in 1977 and became one of the regular acts at CBGB where they played with leading No Wave bands on the scene. Mars is best known as the band on Brian Eno's "No New York" compilation that had no intensive musical background but presented songs that made a staggering impact on the devolution of punk into primordial noise.

Before the band dissolved in 1978, they managed to record material for an EP, a self-titled affair, posthumously released in 1980. Their EP, along with an early 7" and live tracks, were released as a compilation 78+ on Widowspeak in 1986. Atavistic re-released the compilation in 1996, and Mars' bassist Mark Cunningham released The Complete Studio Recordings in his own label Spooky Sound in 2003.

Skal vi danse
Setter fyr på et panser
Skal vi danse
Setter fyr på et panser fuego
Skal vi danse
Setter fyr på et panser (smash smash)
Jeg har mæd spenn og jeg føler meg som Tshawe

Ballin'
Lamborginbrann
Kelly Rowland
Har du møtt smilet hans
Han kler av seg og kjører fort han kræsjer litt men gjør det stort
Han knuller noen og finner roen men sløser bort en million
Og smilet hans (for et smil)
Og smilet hans (my nigga T)

Paljett sko man let's do this
Du gjorde det for Peters gjorde det for Yosef
Kæbs sa til deg "La oss gå papi"
Men du sa hei til meg jeg var nobody
Lærte lille pakkis om dollarglis
Dollar dollar beggin' beggin' cheese
Hørte deg på norsk Tommy Tee mixtape
Bro det var ill det var helt insane
Hørte "Doo Wop" på no' O Town shit
Bro det var dope det var showmanship
Wreck en Lambo' bone en bitch
Wreck en Lambo' bone en bitch
Tjener dough tjener dough legit

Jeg har mæd spenn og jeg føler meg som Tshawe

Han bare skinner og skinner
Cocoa butter hver dag neger'n gliser
Går på hoverboard uten hoverboard
Tshawe bare flyter
Hvit aura som matcher tenna
Solbriller ellers blir du blenda
Fylt med ringer på begge henda
Rolex diamanter danser som han
Gjør moves fra nowhere
Penger som dressen fra Moods of Norway
Glow glow glow
Ingen her rører min soul glow bro
Røyka en J med Snoop Lion var i M I A med Ricky Ross
Helt legendarisk han burde bo i slottet med Mette Marit

Hva skjer'a folkens
Det er mye som har skjedd det er mye som har skjedd
Men det er deilig at jeg får anledningen endelig til å gjøre min type dans
Så jeg spør bandet først jeg
Can I do my thing
Tusen takk skal dere ha

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the song "Jeg føler meg som Tshawe" by Mars. The song is an homage to the Norwegian rapper Tshawe Baqwa, who is one half of the duo Madcon. The lyrics depict a luxurious and extravagant lifestyle, drawing parallels between the singer's own perceived success and that of Tshawe.

The first verse talks about setting fire to a car hood and asks if they should dance. This can be seen as a metaphor for living life to the fullest and not being afraid to take risks. The line "Jeg har mæd spenn og jeg føler meg som Tshawe" translates to "I have a lot of money and I feel like Tshawe," indicating a sense of confidence and empowerment.

The second verse references famous singer Kelly Rowland and describes Tshawe as someone who takes off his clothes and drives fast, sometimes crashing but still making a big impact. He is depicted as someone who enjoys the finer things in life but also wastes money and finds temporary fulfillment in sexual encounters. The phrase "dollarglis" refers to Tshawe teaching someone about the allure of money and material possessions.

The chorus repeats the question "Skal vi danse?" or "Should we dance?" emphasizing the idea of embracing life and living in the moment. The line "setter fyr på et panser fuego" can be interpreted as igniting passion and excitement. The mention of Tshawe serves as a symbol of confidence, success, and indulgence.
