Lyrics

Hey!
Mr. Kenji Akita’s got a brand new
Top secret project that I really want to show you.
I think it’s okay if we go and check it out.
Just wait until you see, you will wanna take it out.
It’s a red hot, state of art, solar powered spaceship.
Don’t you wanna turn it on and take a little space trip?
Hey, open up the roof and come along with me,
Just think, in a little while, we could be…

Bouncin’ up and down in a crater on the moon,

Take a good look around, make believe you’re a Selenite.

Not a lot to do, so get back around noon,

‘Cause it waxes up to two-oh-one degrees Fahrenheit.

Everybody’s happy on the big gray ball,

You can jump off a cliff, it’s a very slow fall.

So let’s all go and party on the moon.

(Let’s all go and party on the moon.)

Yeah, let’s all go and party on the moon.

Hey! This is the moon, this is the moon, this is the moon, ah.

Here we are, and it’s better than I thought.
I knew there’d be rocks, but Jesus, there’s a lot.
You can chuck ‘em at my head, and it doesn’t even hurt,
And it’s pretty damn fun to roll around in moon dirt.
Well, that was a lotta fun, yeah, what a total blast,
But when you’re having fun, time flies pretty fast.
So maybe we could go again next September,
Until that day comes, I’ll fondly remember.

Bouncin’ up and down in a crater on the moon,

Take a good look around, make believe you’re a Selenite.

Not a lot to do, so get back around noon,

‘Cause it waxes up to two-oh-one degrees Fahrenheit.

Everybody’s happy on the big gray ball,

You can jump off a cliff, it’s a very slow fall.

So let’s all go and party on the moon.

(Let’s all go and party on the moon.)

Yeah, let’s all go and party on the moon.

Hey! This is the moon, this is the moon, this is the moon, ah.
