They Might Be Giants - Destination Moon lyrics

There's nobody here who can pick up

Or has stuff they need to talk about

And who won't be now checking out and flying

CHORUS

By rocket to the moon

By airplane to the rocket

Buy taxi to the airport

By front door to the taxi

By throwing back the blanket, hanging down the legs

Thank you for the card with the cartoon nurse

But you see there's nothing wrong with me

You think, "That's what you think."

"That's what they all say," before I blow you away

CHORUS

Soon the man who slweeps the room

Brings a secret telegram

"COMMENCE OFFICIAL INTERPLANETARY EXPLORATION"

By rocket to the moon

Crawl to the rocket

By coughing at the airport

By limping to the taxi

By throwing back the blanket

Hanging down the withered leg
