I'm Afraid Big Moon
Frumpy Lyrics

Sometimes in the night when living is easy
Occasionally during calm and peaceful nights

I go out and watch the sky
I leave my dwelling to gaze skyward

That chains me like a child
The immense expanse captivates me like a child

Is it the moon that takes me far away
Could it be the moon that transports me to another world

Have the stars got something to say
Do the stars possess a message for me

I'm afraid, big moon
I fear for you, imposing moon

That they'll come and catch you soon
They may soon seize you, oh mighty moon

And root you up in your old days
And discard you in your elder years

You're looking peaceful, sleeping stars
Serene, dormantly glowing stars

But your silence will depart
However, your quietness will vanish

When astronauts will cross your way
Once space explorers intercept your path

Without doubt, it won't take long
It is certain that it will happen soon

'Fore disgust will make us all think wrong
Before repulsion causes us to err in judgement

We are too young
We lack experience

To see what our children see
To perceive what our offspring perceive

But we are the ones
However, we are the generation

To start the way out of misery
To initiate the path toward happiness

Let they go to the stars
They, others, can journey toward the stars

The scene will not change at all
But the situation will remain the same

If they don't go their way together
Unless they embark as a united group

Maybe when I'm with you, stars
Perhaps when I'm in your presence, stars

And my prayers will be in vain
Although my hopes may be futile

Then love will cross your way
Then affection will come upon you

Oh, hey, oh hey-e-ey
Chorus interlude

Well, I don't want to paint the future black
I don't intend to be pessimistic about the future

But like me there are millions who desire something back
Yet, there are numerous others who yearn for something lost

It's not the exploring of stars that seems to be a joke
The exploration of space isn't trivial

It's just the faith in the old that broke
It's the loss of trust in previous generations

While I'm standing here and I'm trying to get high
As I stand here and aspire to reach new heights

While I'm dreaming of the stars my time is passing by
As I fantasize about the stars, time slips away

I think I've got a lot to do before I'm loosing hope
I believe I have many tasks to complete before becoming pessimistic

It's just the faith in the old that broke
It's the loss of trust in previous generations

It should be so that the old are good and wise
The elderly ought to be virtuous and sagacious

But when you look around the old are telling lies
However, when you observe, the aged are dishonest

They teach us dissatisfaction and hate
They instruct us to be discontented and hateful

If we don't return, it could be too late
If we don't reverse course, it may be too late

If we don't return, don't return, don't return it could be too late
Chorus outro
