They hung the man today.
They say he hung the moon
he alit a glowing orb
dangled it from a star.

They hung a man today.
They say they hung the man
who ***** the women and stole the children
But, they say he owns the moon.

They hung the stars themselves,
painted every one.
But he hung the moon they say
the moon's face is his own.

They hung his life on a rope,
his life was but a strand, they say.
The moon and stars dropped tears of light
That’s why we no longer see a one.

They hung the man.
They say
They say
They say he's in the moon
