One of the early plans for Horrendous Disc was for it to be a concept album about cults and secret societies. But the only song along those lines that ended up on the album was the very Beatles-esque “Man in the Moon.”
Man In The Moon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I saw Mr. Moon last night
You know he's on the rise
There's something in his eyes I've never seen before
There's some kind of magic here
He's so full of surprises
He'll hypnotize like the lull of a lullaby
[Chorus 1]
Carry me home in my dreams
Oh, nothing's the way that it seems
Give up my world
Now it's all too absurd
What has happened to me?
[Bridge]
Man in the moon
(I'm the man in the moon)
I was shooting for a star much higher
Man in the moon
(I'm the man in the moon)
There's no life nowhere near, I'm dying
To get out of here
Lord, don't leave me high and dry
Let me fly
[Verse 2]
Oh, the moon is a yellow man
(Oh yes, a yellow man)
Eclipsed inside his cage
Concealed from public rage
Faith of our father
Well, I can't smile anymore
Oh, end this masquerade
Let the nightmare fade
Kill the gilded calf
[Chorus 2]
I see someone in my dreams
(Dreams, sweet dreams)
Who was born to die and rise to redeem
So pay no attention to that man behind the curtain
Will this upstart ever stop?
[Fade]
Man in the moon
Man in the moon
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Oh, don't leave me
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Don't leave me here
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Don't leave me here
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Oh, Lord, don't leave me
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Don't leave me here
Man in the moon
I'm the man in the moon
Lord, don't leave me here
