On an early summer morning, July '69
As I dream of the planets
I hear a voice softly whisper, "Son, it is time"
"It's happening soon"
It's a quarter to four now and he carries me down
To our place by the telly
I see lights on in houses all over town
For the man on the moon

One small step for man, but a giant leap for mankind
The mighty Apollo prevailed

♪
I go back to my warm bed, back to my dreams
But not the one of the planets
I decided this morning I don't want to be
The man on the moon

One small step for man, but a giant leap for mankind
The mighty Apollo prevailed

As I lie here in this cold tank, living a dream
I'm the last on the planets
I decided this morning I don't want to be
The man on Mars

One small step for man but a giant leap for mankind
The mighty Apollo prevailed
One small step for man, but a giant leap for mankind
