Water On The Moon by flot 2009

Water On the Moon

by Sam Flot - Dedicated to Gil Scott Heron

I got no job, they took my house

But there’s water on the moon

People dying every day

And there’s water on the moon

Swine flu in my city

Swine flu on my block

But there’s water on the moon

Unemployment’s just enough for me

Good thing I aint got kids

Doctor won’t see me

So I aint got that bill

And water’s on the moon

If I cant live on this earth

What good is water on the moon

We have a black man as president

And water on the moon

Country split in between very rich and very poor

All the Isms piled up on the White House door

If I can’t live here on this earth

If my rights don’t mean a thing

What good’s it gonna do me if there’s 

water on the moon?

They bailed out the banks 

And who bails me out?

But there’s water on the moon

Habitats and people can live there now 

Cause there’s water on the moon

They stole my wallet on the street

Right here on the earth

They took my old laptop that had no worth

Laughed and ran then looked and cursed

Sure there might be water on the moon

But that wallet was as empty as ski slopes in June

I know now I will get by

Cause there’s water on the moon

I know each day I can survive 

Cause there’s water on the moon

Got no health plan, no government cheese

But there’s water on the moon

I’m not sure when these wars will end

But there’s water on the moon

Got no job no money no food

But there’s water on the moon

Maybe I’ll just go start anew

Have it all and drink it too

Cause there’s water on the moon!
