stomach twists, your words the wringers
it hurts to know that's what you think
venomous thoughts linger
and i'm ******, but more sorry than anything
that i let you get in the way
of the plans i had made
don't let me ruin your big step,
man on the moon
you've got a huge rock to pursue
and i'm just the pebble stuck
in the bottom of your shoe
don't let me get in the way,
man on the moon
greater than any other passer-goer
you've made your statement
you're the one who wins the game
please understand that i'm lost
trapped under the gum
on the bottom of your shoe
oh, man on the moon
where's the stars i was hoping for
down hollywood boulevard
guess it was a lame excuse and wasn't true
my forgiven gratitude
for the man on the moon
