"Poor Moon".....Canned Heat.....

Canned Heat/Poor Moon/Lyrics

Ever since I was a kid

You sure looked good to me

Now I'm a man full-grown, and I

Know what I hate to see

(Oh well)

It might be tomorrow

(Oh well)

I just don't know

(Oh well)

It might take years

I wonder when they're going to

Destroy your face

It may seem silly, but I don't like

What's been coming down

'Cause you've been looking good too long

To change your colour now

(Oh well)

They might test some bomb

(Oh well)

And scar your skin

(Oh well)

I don't think they care, so

I wonder when they're going to

Destroy your face

I hope I see you in the sky

At night when I get old

I hope you'll look about the same

As when I was a boy

(Oh well)

It gets me to gasping

(Oh well)

When I think about

(Oh well)

What they might do

I wonder when they're going to

Destroy your face

Well, you sure look good

In the sky at night

And it's sad to say

You won't shine so bright

Some day

When they're through with you

I bet you've seen the cloud we make

That covers up our rain

I wonder if you'll hide behind

A shroud like that some day

(Oh well)

I'm worried about it

(Oh well)

It makes me sigh

(Oh well)

I just can't help it

I wonder when they're going to

Destroy your face

(Oh well)

It might be tomorrow

(Oh well)

I just don't know

(Oh well)

It might take years

I wonder when they're going to

Destroy your face
