Mr. Moon

I am fourteen with my sister's face

On the fake I.D. that you got

Your flashlight on

Shining down on her not me

In that little square

So I talk about this weather

While my sister smiles

Then you hand her back to me saying

"You don't have brown hair"

Well I was leaving anyway

'Cause your band is out of tune

I'll just find a better place

Or a wishing star or two

Don't you look down on me Mr. Moon

Maybe someday I'll be an angel

Who knows

I just might visit you

When my time here is through

So don't look down on me Mr. Moon

It's a cold night for a heart to break

So I'll just pretend that it's Independence Day

Find someone to celebrate

I see Jim Beam lying on his side

Says he'd like to fly

And could I help him toward that sign that says

I am not allowed inside

And it's one for Saturday

And it's two to say good-bye

Then we made our getaways

Underneath a Midwest sky

Good-bye

And don't you look down on me Mr. Moon

Maybe someday I'll be an angel

Who knows

I just might visit you

When my time here is through

So don't look down on me Mr. Moon

Now I walk past the shadowed church

Where they dream about better days

When we're all dead and gone

And hear the trumpets blow

Well I hear one playing loud and strong

And you don't get long to dance in this world

Do you now

So come on sister smile for me

Cause it's one for Saturday

And it's two to say good-bye

Then we made our getaways

Underneath a Midwest sky

So don't you look down on me Mr. Moon

Maybe someday I'll be an angel
