Moon, Moon, Moon

I consider it a tonenail clipping
From God's own big toe
It sits in the big black sky
As bright as you'll ever know

Some people say
It's a huge ball of cheese
But if it was wouldn't people ask
"May I have some more please?"

I'm sorry to report
But moon is what you call it
I know this disappoints you
But please don't throw a fit

This moon, so big and round
Will hang in the sky 
Forever and forever
Even after I die

I love the moon
As it sits there every night so bright
I wish I could hold it
Just so very tight

Moon, moon, moon
Just as pretty as can be
Moon, moon, moon
Tonight you look and see
