THE MAN IN THE MOON And where in the world is the hope For the man on the moon I got a story I think I'll tell it now About an Angel I think she has flown now About a time when I could believe That she was real And never would leave It's early morning So I suppose still time But I am yawning And she's still not online I've lived in fear That this day could come too soon... And what in the world is the hope For the man on the moon Yes I'm an old man My best days behind me now I was a tiger, a tiger on the prowl Would not be caged Thought I owned this town But my dreams fell dead And time ran me down So Hey Clockface Why don't you shut your mouth I hear you talkin' North and East and West and South You say I told you so But I know as well as you... And who in the world gives a damn For the man in the moon Everybody got something to hide Ain't heard nothin' Has she died? Lost my wife, I lost it all And it all went to hell, you've heard it all... 'Cause nobody loves you when you're dead and old You kinda wobble on but still you never know I used to see her everywhere But now nowhere, now nowhere -Guitar solo- And who gives a damn For the man in the moon? Maybe a bad dream So button up my mouth Today got canceled Okay so it's a drought I haven't noticed 'cause it looks like rain The weatherman tells me again and again Are you like me boy? The way I used to be I knew it all You couldn't say a damn thing to me Maybe you notice When she says her life is ruined I can't sing no more so I'll crawl off to die There's tears on my face and mud in my eye And what in the world Is the hope For the man in the moon And who gives a damn For the man That old man in the moon In the moon In the moon Oh Copyright 2021 - JESUS OLDMAN & THE APOSTLES
