Try running php wp-cli.phar
EDIT
It looks a little like php
on your system isn’t setup to use php-cli
(it’s using php-cgi
instead):
try running: php -v
on my machine I get:
PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.14 (cli) (built: Oct 28 2015 01:34:46)

The important bit is where it says (cli)
– this means it’s the cli, and not cgi version.
