Mr. Moon lyrics

I am fourteen with my sister's face 
On the fake I.D. that you got 
Your flashlight on 
Shining down on her not me 
In that little square 
So I talk about this weather 
While my sister smiles 
Then you hand her back to me saying 
"You don't have brown hair" 
Well I was leaving anyway 
'Cause your band is out of tune 
I'll just find a better place 
Or a wishing star or two 
Don't you look down on me Mr. Moon 
Maybe someday I'll be an angel 
Who knows 
I just might visit you 
When my time here is through 
So don't look down on me Mr. Moon 
It's a cold night for a heart to break 
So I'll just pretend that it's Independence Day 
Find someone to celebrate 
I see Jim Beam lying on his side 
Says he'd like to fly 
And could I help him toward that sign that says 
I am not allowed inside 
And it's one for Saturday 
And it's two to say good-bye 
Then we made our getaways 
Underneath a Midwest sky 
Good-bye 
And don't you look down on me Mr. Moon 
Maybe someday I'll be an angel 
Who knows 
I just might visit you 
When my time here is through 
So don't look down on me Mr. Moon 
Now I walk past the shadowed church 
Where they dream about better days 
When we're all dead and gone 
And hear the trumpets blow 
Well I hear one playing loud and strong 
And you don't get long to dance in this world 
Do you now 
So come on sister smile for me 
Cause it's one for Saturday 
And it's two to say good-bye 
Then we made our getaways 
Underneath a Midwest sky 
So don't you look down on me Mr. Moon 
Maybe someday I'll be an angel
