Moondog Lyrics - Prefab Sprout

The funeral cars crawl down 

The heartbreak side of town 

The mourners all discuss 

The boy who caused a fuss 

We chopped a billion trees 

To print up eulogies 

But guys we should have guessed 

The girls would say it best 

Moondog 

Love, 'cos love's the final word 

Nothing crosses love 

Reason has to bow 

If love demands it 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Up there a flag will fly 

For mom and apple pie 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

The one place left to play, hey 

The comeback's underway 

The world was younger then 

In bed asleep by ten 

And daddies shook their fists 

At hidden communists 

The earth was merely round 

Before the slap back sound 

Is there one spell can bring 

The once and future king? 

Moondog 

Cut to somewhere deep in space 

Beyond the colonel's arms 

Handsome doggone rake 

The truly weightless 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Up there a flag will fly, yes sir 

For mom and apple pie 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

The one place left to play, hey 

The comeback's underway 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Up there a flag will fly, yes sir 

For mom and apple pie 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

Moondog, guess who's on the moon 

The one place left to play, hey 

The comeback's underway
