Moonhead Songtext
von Hymie’s Basement

Did you hear the one about the day the moon fell to earth
And had a crater exactly the size of a human head on it
And it landed on my head and now my head is the moon?

Or the one about the day a thousand lives from now
When we return as a team of archaeologists
And discover fossils of ourselves in a former life

On the day we spurned our nervous twitch
And found our urine to hand them winter bliss


On the day the stars sang the national anthem of sweaty disbelief
Of coelacanth teeth to scream loud enough
To shatter the roof of a coral reef
And the shrapnel ground up into paint for robins
And colored dream and root beer float

Secondhand flavored drool absorbers
And the words hope and home that sound the same

And smell the same as the day the doe
Caught a sad snowflake on her tongue
And melted it in an instant that tasted like

The black hole′s wild-eyed longing for light

Or the friendly stars which radiate
Or the planets that reflect it
Or the eyes that reflect the reflection
Or the eyes looking into those eyes
And seeing the reflection of the eyes
Which if all goes according to plan will outlast the universe itself
