Rose Melberg - I Don't Want To Live On The Moon (Jim Henson) lyrics

rate me

I'd like to visit the moon

On a rocket ship high in the air!

Yes, I'd like to visit the moon

But I don't think I'd like to go there!

Though I'd like to look down at the Earth from above

I would miss all the places and people I love

So although I might like it for one afternoon

I don't want to live on the Moon!

I'd like to travel under the sea

And get me all the fish everywhere

Yes, I travel under the sea

But I don't think I'd like to live there!

I might stay for a day there if I had my wish

But there is not much to do when your friends are all fish

And an oyster and clam aren't a real family

So I don't want to live in the sea!

I'd like to visit the jungle, hear the lions roar

Go back in time and meat a dinosaur

There's so many strange places I'd like to be

But none of them permanently!

So if I should visit the moon

Well, I'll dance on the moonbeam and then

I will make a wish on a star

And I'll wish I was home once again!

Though I'd like to look down at the Earth from above

I would miss all the places and people I love

So although I may go I'll be coming home soon,

Cause I don't want to live on the moon!

No, I don't want to live on the moon!
