Everyone's Gone To The Moon

King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson

Streets full of people

All alone

Roads full of houses

Never home

Church full of singing

Out of tune

Everyone's gone to the moon



Eyes full of sorrow

Never wet

Hands full of money

All in debt

Sun coming out in

The middle of June

Everyone's gone to the moon



Long time ago

Life has begun

Everyone went to the sun



Cars full of motors

Painted green

Mouths full of chocolate

Covered cream

Arms that can only

Lift a spoon

Everyone's gone to the moon



Everyone's gone to the moon

Everyone's gone to the moon

Everyone's Gone To The Moon
