Nobody Wants to Go to the Moon Anymore

歌詞

Nobody Wants to Go to the Moon Anymore I don't know a soul that wants to visit the moon That bruise in the sky, that busted balloon A big rotten egg trashing up the sky A red-faced drunk with a hundred black eyes And nobody wants to go to the moon anymore Nobody climbs on that big rocketship They've all heard the stories of the turbulent trip The truckstop's abandoned, the cook broke the grill They kicked out the windows Tainted each thrill And nobody wants to go the moon anymore Your mother sailed to the moon on her senior trip You were a sprout in time, a smile on her lips She blew all her money the very first day On a fist full of trinkets your grandma threw away And nobody wants to see the stars that were cast Those black and white movies, the scenes from the past The drive-in's deserted, every speaker's been tossed The projector caught fire, every last frame was lost And nobody wants to go Nobody wants to go to the moon anymore Your father found work, he was raised on the midway He hustled toys night and day Kissed all the girls, won 'em all teddy bears Woke up with love in his pockets... and gum in his hair Oh, I don't know a soul that wants to visit the moon A dream left forgotten, it was conquered too soon Why waste your stamp on a postcard so cheap? Why take a step for mankind when the world's at your feet? And nobody wants to go Nobody wants to go Nobody wants to go to the moon anymore
