Boy in the Moon

from Look What's Left by Wampeters

/

lyrics

get with it, get dressed
fight to be the best
here’s your flight cap
and here are your shiny boots
comb your hair, get moving
your laziness ain’t soothing to the rest of us
now stand up straight and tall

and smile, smile, smile
remember to smile

make the grade, get tough
everybody’s had enough
of idealists and utopians and other fools
get a grip, get serious
everybody’s furious
your brain’s been sighted
out near Saturn’s rings

boy in the moon
they shot you off too soon

your aptitude is high
your attitude is poor
discrepancies are cause for concern
sure you’ll take your sips
but soon you’ll be eclipsed
by somebody who took the time to learn
whatever it was

but fly, fly, fly
remember to fly

before you knew enough to shoot them down
and now is your big chance
to waste a round
