Lyrics

Well I'd like to visit the moon
On a rocketship high in the air
Yes I'd like to visit the moon
But I don't think I'd like to live there
Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above
I would miss all the places and people I love
So although I might like it for one afternoon
I don't want to live on the moon
I'd like to travel under the sea
I could meet all the fish everywhere
Yes I'd travel under the sea
But I don't think I'd like to live there
I might stay for a day there if I had my wish
But there's not much to do
When your friends are all fish
An oyster and clam aren't real family
So I don't want to live in the sea
I'd like to visit the jungle
Hear the lions roar
Go back in time and meet a dinosaur
There are so many strange places I'd like to be
But none of them permanently
So if I should visit the moon
Well I'll dance on a moonbeam and then
I will make a wish on a star
And I'll wish I was home once again
Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above
I would miss all the places and people I love
So although I may go, I'll be coming home soon
'Cause I don't want to live on the moon
No I don't
Want to live
On the moon
