[Verse 1]
Yesterday I tried to write a novel but I didn't know where to begin
So I laid down in the grass tryin' to feel the world turn
Boy loses girl in a rain storm, nuclear World War III
All that's left is pain and sorrow, as far as he's concerned

[Chorus]
He says please send all your moonbeam levels to me
Please send all your moonbeam levels to me
Please send all your moonbeam levels to me
I'm lookin' for a better place to die

[Verse 2]
Maybe he's lookin' for a different world
Maybe he's lookin' for a brand new high
Maybe he would like a nice condo overlookin' the rings of Saturn
Maybe he wants affection instead of a plastic life
Maybe he doesn't know what he wants at all

[Chorus]
He says please send all your moonbeam levels to me
Please send all your moonbeam levels to me
Please send all your moonbeam levels to me
I'm lookin' for a better place to die

[Bridge]
A newborn child knows nothing of destruction
Nothing of love and hate
What happens in between is a mystery
Because we don't give a damn about his fate
