If I could build a city on the moon
Would it be best to hire workers who know?
Earth’s cities built by those arrived too soon.
Claimed land by the lake where I hear the loon.
Divert to my crops; I control the flow.
If I could build a city on the moon.
A domed marvel makes its citizens swoon.
Is it the moon or myself here below?
Earth’s cities built by those arrived too soon.
Our lunar chaperon caused some to croon.
Some people believe we should fix us first.
If I could build a city on the moon.
Would our expansion be a curse or boon?
Like seeds in the wind, we’re caught in the blow.
Earth’s cities built by those arrived too soon.
Still, we’re not the piper who calls the tune.
Though we think we decide to stop or go.
If I could build a city on the moon.
Earth’s cities built by those arrived too soon.
