Red Moon
Some say bad times are a comin,
some say trouble's on the way.
Nonsense I say, just a total lunar eclipse
as the moon passes through
the darkest part of the Earth's shadow
any light reaching the moon is refracted
through the Earth's atmosphere
which scatters the blue light,
and what reaches the moon is red.
So I say, but with four in two years
and the situation in the Ukraine, Syria and all
I'm goin to cover my mirrors.
