They Might Be Giants
Destination Moon
[Verse 1]
Don't bother to call this room
There's nobody here who can pick up
Or has stuff they need to talk about
And who won't be now
Checking out and flying
[Chorus]
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By front door to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the legs
[Verse 2]
Thank you for the card with the cartoon nurse
But you see there's nothing wrong with me
You think, "That's what you think"
"That's what they all say,"
Before I blow you away
[Chorus]
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By front door to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the legs
[Bridge]
Soon the man who sweeps the room
Brings the secret telegram:
"COMMENCE OFFICIAL INTERPLANETARY EXPLORATION"
[Verse 3]
Thank you for the card with the cartoon nurse
But you see there's nothing wrong with me
You think, "That's what you think"
"That's what they all say,"
Before I blow you away
[Chorus]
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By front door to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the legs
[Chorus 2]
By rocket to the moon
Crawl to the rocket
By coughing at the airport
By limping to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket
Hanging down the withered leg
