gonna dress you all up in pink ribbons
moon. the whole town’ll be buzzin
on account of you.

gonna roll you as flat as a pancake
moon. put whipped cream and berries
on top of you.

(Jim wants chocolate chips)
(inside of his)

(Jane?)
(eats hers plain)

(Frank likes sausage)

gonna knock you right outta the park
moon. gonna steal all the bases
and run home to you.

there’s a good chance that things’ll get crazy
moon. if you just must insist upon
gettin so full.

gonna stay up all night
moon. till you get home.
then we’ll open the presents.
and save the bows.

hello,
moon.
good to see you.

no one’s home in the high rise apartment
moon. where you said that you live.
but we don’t think you do.

gonna sleep with the windows wide open
moon. gonna laugh with the wind
and the rain and you.

folks down here had a very good Monday
moon. so here’s a request
for a good Tuesday too.

puttin new pictures into old frames
moon. who woulda predicted
the changes in you.

hither and tither and fro
moon. which way are you
gonna go?

we need to get us a hammer
moon. we’re not gettin too far
with this high-heeled shoe.

they told us you hung the moon,
moon. they call you the cat’s
meow. they say you’re a gem. a peach.
a find. that they had to break
the mold.

they say you’re too good. too rich.
too thin. and possibly even
a sin. but we’d like to know if
you’ll light our way home.
(cuz Jim lost the keys)
(again)

you look lonely way up in the sky
moon. let’s make a foursquare badge
for you.

(Jim‘s the new mayor)
(Jane‘s just an explorer)

mission impossible, possible
moon. just ask the girl
with the dragon tattoo…

we’re tired of bein without you
moon. and we know it’s still early.
but there’s so much to do.

you might wanna tighten your belt
moon. to keep your pants up and,
uhhhm… yeah.

(Jane can’t even look)
(she does things by the book)

strikin a match on a rainy day
moon. we’re lightin a fire…
where (pray tell) are you?

chasing, erasing, re-tracing
moon. you’ve vanished but
we can’t stop thinkin bout you.

gonna sing you a song with no ending
moon. rise up with good fortune.
hummin a tune.
