Moon Landing lyrics

Looking across the lighted surface

A sky of black, stars twinkling, alit

Its stellar sphere is contrast uniform

Surface shades of black and white

Silent and stoic land of rock and dust

Pock-marked as if doodlebugs thrived

Craters varied by the meteor strikes

Great events gone by, long, long ago

Voyagers intruded upon a sea of tranquility

And their ambitions universal come

Then to depart quickly in novel loss

Was it because it was there

A race for the moon and ideaology

That the comptetions of Earth come

Nations spent so much effort and men

To gain acclaim that in the end

In benevolence in mankind's behalf

"We came in peace for all mankind"

And there in silent space in dust

Lies a relic of a nation's pride

Remants litter the surface sterile

A legacy to the ambition of men
