[Verse 1] They said there was gold, black gold, up in the sky, So we built our rockets and flew so high. Drilled the moon, till it crumbled to dust, Leaving nothing behind but legend and lust. [Chorus] The moon, a myth? Just like the dragons we read? No more eclipses, no tides, what a deed! Conspiracy theorists now have their day, Claiming the moon was a lie, led astray. [Verse 2] Lunar claims in history, now under debate, "Was it ever there?" they speculate. Erasers of history, with a sneaky plan, To wipe lunar tales from the books of man. [Chorus] The moon, a myth? Just like the dragons we read? No more eclipses, no tides, what a deed! Conspiracy theorists now have their day, Claiming the moon was a lie, led astray. [Bridge] Gone are the nights under silvery light, Gone are the poets who mused at its sight. A celestial body, now just a tale, In the grand human saga, a cosmic fail. [Verse 3] Centuries later, in classrooms they teach, Of a moon made of cheese, a beach out of reach. Kids laugh and joke, in disbelief shake their heads, "A moon in the sky? Are you off your meds?" [Chorus] The moon, a myth? Just like the dragons we read? No more eclipses, no tides, what a deed! Conspiracy theorists now have their day, Claiming the moon was a lie, led astray. [Outro] So here's to the moon, whether fact or a spoof, In our history, it seems almost aloof. Once orbited Earth, or so the old stories say, Now just a myth, in a universe, grey.
