Lyrics
Destination Moon
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't bother to call this room
There's nobody here who can pick up
Or has stuff they need to talk about
And who won't be now
Checking out and flying
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By front door to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the legs
Thank you for the card with the cartoon nurse
But you see there's nothing wrong with me
You think, "that's what you think."
"that's what they all say,"
Before i blow you away
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By front door to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the legs
Soon the man who sweeps the room
Brings the secret telegram:
"commence official interplanetary exploration"
Thank you for the card with the cartoon nurse
But you see there's nothing wrong with me
You think, "that's what you think."
"that's what they all say,"
Before i blow you away
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By front door to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the legs
By rocket to the moon
Crawl to the rocket
By coughing at the airport
By limping to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the withered leg
