The Man in the Moon Lyrics by Imperial Drag

Imperial Drag

1996

[Intro]
"Nowhere is there more beauty than here
Tonight, when the moon rises, the whole world will turn to silver."
[Verse 1]
Everybody loves him 'cause he's light years from home
The poets and the painters, they can't leave him alone
A lighthouse to romantics both on land and at sea
A satellite of secrets born of charm and intrigue
[Chorus]
He's the man in the moon
Oh, see how he smiles
The man in the moon
Still, sad all the while
[Verse 2]
One night they came a-knockin' on his living room door
They used him, bruised him, screwed him hard until they were bored
Now no one really seems to give a damn anymore
Another lunatic loser who's no longer adored
[Chorus]
He's the man in the moon
My far-out friend in the sky
The man in the moon
Oh, see how he cries
[Instrumental break]
[Chorus]
He's the man in the moon
Oh, see how he smiles
The man in the moon
A supersonic space-age child
The man in the moon
My far-out friend in the sky
The man in the moon
Oh, look at him cry
