The Dynamo Ascension: A Prog-Rock Project Lyric 4

Telephone Call From The Man on the Moon

This is the story of a man named Bjorn
He’s lived on the moon since the day he was born

He lives off its water and its cheese
He’s never had to work or pay any fees
He spends everyday on the moon all alone
With nothing for company except his phone

He makes calls to earth just to pass the time
He doesn’t feel that that’s a crime
To have someone to talk to everyday
He just reverses the charges so he doesn’t have to pay

I spoke to the man on the moon for half an hour
I told him all about Dynamo power
Now I can’t pay my phone bill cos it’s so large
Because the man on the moon reversed the charge

I wrote him a letter to pay me back
And put the envelope in a cosmonaut’s sack
When he got the letter he gave me a ring
But he still did his reverse charge thing

He told me that on the moon there’s no money
Because he has no use for currency
He gets his water and his cheese for free
And now there’s no way that he can pay me

I spoke to the man on the moon for half an hour
I told him all about Dynamo power
Now I can’t pay my phone bill cos it’s so large
Because the man on the moon reversed the charge
