The Moon and Me
I have followed the moon from night to night
Have tracked her sky to sky from near to far
Like me she is a fugitive in flight
Choosing to stay where the mysteries are
By cover of darkness soft and sable
The moon and I have always been able
To do what we please and bring to their knees
The arrogant who think they know better
And we two utterly confound them by
Moonbeam and letter breaking the fetter
Of ignorance and narrowmindedness
Which they would use against the moon and I
Could never understand their ways unless
These fools imagine they can bind the sky
Well they cannot and they forgot that we
Are pretty slippery the moon and me
