Go to the Moon

Ah, yeah In a fast food restaurant, not long ago Somewhere in central Ohio I came across a table of five or six boys They were just being rowdy, making lots of noise Until one said, hey, I got a question for you If we nuked Russia Where would you go, what would you do? Another one said, I think I've got the solution You see, my friends, the answer lies in seclusion You get your friends and family You gather up some food Pack 'em in a rocket and you. Go to the moon Leave this place behind Go to the moon To live with your own kind Go to the moon Come back some other time Go to the moon Hey! Now as I heard those boys talking, it reminded me Of a conversation I had more recently This guy was sayin', hey There's something I want you to know I'm a Christian from a Christian home I'm in a Christian club, a Christian school Got a Christian code to phone And if people don't like it They can just leave me alone You say he's afraid The world is rubbing off of him When all this time I thought We should be rubbing off of them Just get your friends and family Gather up some food Pack them in a rocket 'Cause you might as well. Go to the moon Leave this place behind Go to the moon To live with your own kind Go to the moon Come back some other time Go to the moon Go to the moon And wait for the end of time Go to the moon Leave the sick to die Go to the moon Get yourself some peace of mind Go to the moon Mission control says now's the time One small step towards your fellow man Is one giant leap for mankind Well, now before this little story Comes to a close There's just a thing or two I'd like you to know I believe in fellowship, in brotherhood And accountability And that believer to believer Can be encouraging But if the salt is gonna season Shine the light in darkened runes Don't hide among the chosen We cannot. Go to the moon Leave this place behind Go to the moon To live with your own kind Go to the moon Come back some other time Go to the moon Go to the moon Where you'll be safe and sound Go to the moon To live on that lunar ground Go to the moon Go to the moon Go to the moon Why don't you go already Go to the moon Oh, take me there Go to the moon Get yourself some peace of mind Go to the moon
