Widespread Panic - Porch Song Lyrics

Widespread Panic Lyrics

"Porch Song"

I opened up my eyes to see
A land of sunny rocks and funny trees
Yes, I'm on the moon again
A heavy earth exchange a lighter breeze
Got no coat and got no money
A pair of tennis shoes to last through May
A crater for an outdoor pool
A few good cats to help me pass the day

Havin' a good time, here today
Watching the sun shine, matinee
Never the wrong time, time we stay
Living the moontime, time we play

From here I watch the world go by
Working in the moon-time bar and grill
The word from Earth - my time is up
But here upon the moon time stands still
Got no telecommunications
Cables haven't gotten out this way
The man in the moon is a musician
That's the way we pass the lunar day

Havin' a good time, here today
Watching the sun shine, matinee
Never the wrong time, time we stay
Living the moontime, time we play
Living the moontime, time to live it up!
