Rent soundtrack – Over The Moon lyrics

Album: Rent

Last night, I had a dream
I found myself in a desert called Cyberland
It was hot
My canteen had sprung a leak and I was thirsty
Out of the abyss walked a cow, Elsie
I asked if she had anything to drink she said
I'm forbidden to produce, milk
In cyberland we only drink, diet coke
She said
Only thing to do is jump over the moon
They've closed everything real down
Like barns and troughs and...
Performance Spaces
And replaced it all with lies and rules and
Virtual Life... But there is a way out
OOOOOOO
Only thing to do is jump over the moon
I gotta get outta here
It's like i'm being tied to the hood of
a yellow rental truck being packed in with fertilizer and fuel oil pushed over a cliff by a suicidal
mickey mouse
I gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta find a way... to jump over the moon
Only thing to do is jump over the moon
Then a little bulldog entered
His name we have learned was Benny
And although he once had principles he abandoned them to live as a lapdog to a wealthy daughter of the revolution
1..2..3
That's bull he said
Ever since the cat took up the fiddle, that cow's been jumpy
And the dish and the spoon were evicted from the table and eloped
And she had trouble with the milk and the moon ever since - maybe it's a female thing
Cause who'd wanna leave cyberland anyways!
Bulls ain't so bad
The dish and the spoon for instance - they're down on their luck. They come knockin' on my doghouse door, and i said "Not in my back yard, utensils, go back to china!" (bideebong)
The only way out is up, Elsie whispered to me.
A leap of faith
Still Thirsty? Parched
Have some milk
And I lowered myself beneath her and held my mouth to her swollen uder and sucked the sweetest milk I have ever tasted!
(Sucking noise)
"Climb on board"
she said and as a harvest moon rose over cyberland we reared back we sprang into a gallop leaping out of orbit i awoke singing
OOOOOO
Only thing to do
Only think to do is jump
Only thing to do is jump Over the moon
Only thing to do is jump Over the moon
Over the moon
Over the ...mooooo!
Mooooo!
Mooooo!
Moo with me, C'mon sir! Moo with me!
Moo, moo, moo, Moooo! Mooooo!
Thank you
