[Verse 1]
Hangin' around the observatory
We were waitin' to see the moon
Well, we thought that we was all gypsies
Come to snare these library views
[Bridge 1]
Well that telescope, that mighty eye
It's bigger, Jack, than you or I
Oh, it sees the stars, it sees the moon
You might as well stay in the room
[Verse 2]
Professor, Professor, I forgot how it looks
Could I just take another peek?
Is there really a man who lives up there?
Is it all green cheese, so to speak?
[Bridge 2]
Well now listen boy. these are the facts
The moon is white, the sky is black
And you are a speck on this crummy Earth
And a dollar and a half is all you're worth
[Instrumental Break]
Why did I come here? Woo
Hangin' around the observatory
We were waitin' to see the moon
Well, we thought that we was all gypsies
Come to snare these library views
[Bridge 1]
Well that telescope, that mighty eye
It's bigger, Jack, than you or I
Oh, it sees the stars, it sees the moon
You might as well stay in the room
[Verse 2]
Professor, Professor, I forgot how it looks
Could I just take another peek?
Is there really a man who lives up there?
Is it all green cheese, so to speak?
[Bridge 2]
Well now listen boy. these are the facts
The moon is white, the sky is black
And you are a speck on this crummy Earth
And a dollar and a half is all you're worth
[Instrumental Break]
Why did I come here? Woo
