Story Behind The Song
A few years back, Earth Day was a big item. A lot of people were writing songs about Earth Day. I thought it was unfair that there weren't some songs being written about the Moon and maybe we should have a Moon Day, too.

The Moon, beautiful, silent, lifeless. Is it the picture of where are Earth is headed?

Lyrics
Moon Day Song by Willy Grigg
Oh Moon, oh Moon
You dried up old prune
All dead and dusty old Moon
All silvery bright, devoid of life
Earth's going to resemble you soon
As you search through the spaceways
For traces of green
You'll find that they're few and far in between
No humpy backed whale
No long necked loon
It's dead and deserted
Just like the Moon
First chop down the trees
And let the hot desert breeze
Blow all the topsoil
To the bottom of the sea
Fill up the air
With that old CO2
It'll be like a sequel
The Moon part 2
