A paranoid diatribe about modern technology and personal demons.
Story behind the song
Hmmm, just let my thought flow and this is what came out. I don't normally fell this way. I have to get 'into character" to write and sing it.
Lyrics
FOOTPRINTS ON THE MOON
A paranoid diatribe in B minor
(note: there really are men's footprints on the moon)
There's footprints on the moon (oh yeah)
And spacemen in the sky
And no matter where the hell you are on Earth right now
They can find you anytime.
There's weapons that can kill a man from ten thousand miles away
There's satellites up high in the sky that can recognise your face
This new technology just blows my fucking mind
Is it just me or can't you see what's happening to mankind?
At best its a blessing, at worst its a curse.
Are we going forward or in reverse?
Are we gonna get our just deserts?
There's undead in the living room
And a vampire on the stairs
I got werewolves in my crawlspace and nobody even cares
when I turn out the light each night
I swear I've just gone blind
and there is someone in the room behind me with murder on their mind
IS this insanity or am I in the twighlight zone
when did I reject reality and substitute my own
maybe paranoid fantasy runs in my family
I'm always looking forward to some sort of calamity
I can feel it in my bones.
