On the Moon

i'm standing on the moon -starz are all around- i also see the earth purple, green, and brown it shines on the horizon mist comes from the trees blue mountains in the distance ...man i love days like these... hey-look at all the stars! ..see the Southern Cross? it's just a simple pattern.. but it let's us know who's boss.. in space-it seems so perfect a peaceful blue medallion on earth-we got some issues.. man, u should do some travellin' we're spending all our time chasing what is dying we're living in the past and we're not even trying we're choking on our poisons pistol packing fools and im trying to remember what they taught me in those "schools".... ..vacations in Australia Mt. Fuji in Japan- sunshine is for breakfast with women in foreign lands.. the clouds have silver linings but it's dark before the dawn each man was made for victory come one-come all-come on.. we're spending all our time chasing what is dying we're living in the past heaving, crying, sighing.. we're choking on our poisons pistol packing fools and i'm trying to forget what they taught me in their schools.... blue earth spins on it's axis planets sing in tune and i'm checking out what is happening... -while i'm standing on the moon-
