When The Earth Had Two Moons

Back when the earth had two moons

Back when the earth had two moons

Baby, can you even remember

That far back when the earth had two moons

We sold it to the people of Kababa

We sold it to the people of Kababa

A medium sized planet in a small solar system in a very large galaxy just next door

A medium sized planet in a small solar system in a very large galaxy just next door

Go to Jupiter, take the first right, fly north north north for 30 billion light years

Remember that space is curved and you can't miss it

Remember that space is curved and you can't miss it

Back when the earth had two moons

It seemed as though eclipses were incessant

Every seven years they were both full

Sometimes when one was full the other was a crescent

We sold it to the people of Kababa

For the Berlin wall and all the tea in China

For the gross national product of America

For the cash crop of North Carolina

Back when the earth had two moons

Nobody had any money

Nobody ever had a fever

No one ever slept alone either

Shoes were the only transportation

No one ever heard of litigation

There was hardly anybody who could spell

But every body slept pretty well

But we sold it to the people of Kababa

For cars and roads and offices

For Warner Brothers, Exxon and Sony

For hamburger meat and baloney

Ah, but now we're better off--don't you see

With CNN on the TV

Child hookers in the Philippines to screw me

Karaoke for every wannabe

We got fast food and condoms and hair spray

We got the right to vote to take all of our rights away

We got life and the means to spend it

We've even got the bomb in case we want to end it

But if you ever find yourself wishing

The moon was back in its original position

There's a rumor that the deal was never signed

And Kababa isn't difficult to find

Go to Jupiter, take the first right, fly north north north for 30 billion light years

Remember that space is curved and you can't miss it

Remember that space is curved and you can't miss it

Back when the earth had two moons

Back when the earth had two moons
