Shy Pale Shy Pale Shy

The moon had a belly ache and

He told gravity to slow down

He told time to slow down

He told the universe to slow down.

But they didn’t listen to him,

Because the moon is

So quiet,

So quiet,

So quiet,

They didn’t hear him

Whisper his worries

And the Earth wouldn’t even

Vouch for him

When he mentioned it at the next

Office meeting.
