Song Lyrics

"Moonshot"

by Steve Taylor
Album: Goliath

I'm building a rocket
Been working so hard
Getting ready to rock it
Straight out of my backyard

I'm building a rocket
It's bigger than me
It's my gift to your future
My metal legacy

----- the stars are aligning
----- I've a sweat to --
But I persevere the hopes of the nation
Everybody gets one Moonshot

I'm building a rocket
The neighbors are tense
When they point and they laugh
I don't even take offense

------ a quiet confidence
It's been my mark since I was a tot
I've been sent here to show you people how
Everybody gets one Moonshot

Oh, oh, oh...
Everybody gets one Moonshot
Oh, oh, oh...
Everybody gets one Moonshot

I'm building a rocket
It's totally mine
It'll spell out my name
Where the sun don't ever shine

My motives are pure
I untangled the knots
I'm ready for sure
Now give me all you got

May the planets align for you
Hold steady and talk
You're facedown in desperation
Everybody gets one Moonshot

Oh, oh, oh...
Everybody gets one Moonshot
Oh, oh, oh...
Everybody gets one Moonshot

I'm building a rocket
It's not about me
You'll be thanking me after
I've saved humanity

I took steel and a feather
And welded them together
I took hell-fire and ice
And made them play nice
