Man on the Moon

Gravity pulled him back ever so slowly on this sphere.
Hard as he tried he couldn't make gravity disappear.
Sick of the people branding him a problem kid.
Sick of the people who lied just to damage his id.

Watching the earth crumble from his home.
Dreading the sight of everything he's known.
Though he missed it all dearly, he got himself some help.
Of course he wasn't lazy, his life remains upon the shelf.

He's the man on the moon.
You will learn to meet him soon.
He's a man living in space.
Just a plain male rugged face.

He has a new life ahead of him on this wicked cool colony.
He'll make the most of his new life in this torn up economy.
Spacemen know the truth and it follows them to the end.
This spaceman prepared himself to once more descend.

Spacesuits, life supports, food packs, he's an astronaut.
Lasers, spaceships, jetpacks, not a thing he ever forgot.
Rose against the alien menace, they saw a hero on the sand.
And everyone knew that they owed very much to this one spaceman.
