|
All of the astronauts |
|
Champagne in plastic cups |
|
Waiting for the big hero to show |
|
Outside the door he stands |
|
His head in his hands |
|
And his heart in his throat |
|
What can he tell them now? |
|
Sorry I let you down |
|
Sorry, it wasn't quite true |
|
But don't get hung up on it |
|
Just solider on with it |
|
And good luck with shooting the moon |
|
Shooting the moon |
|
Shooting the moon, the moon |
|
Shooting the moon |
|
All of the principals |
|
Generals, admirals |
|
And the podium lit with the spotlight |
|
The crowd buzzes quietly |
|
Waiting expectantly |
|
Like it's opening night |
|
What can he tell them now? |
|
Sorry I let you down |
|
Sorry it wasn't quite true |
|
But don't get hung up on it |
|
Just solider on with it |
|
And good luck with shooting the moon |
|
Shooting the moon |
|
Shooting the moon, the moon |
|
Shooting the moon |
