I met you at the solar eclipse party
you were looking for a lighter
When you learned I was a cancer
your eyes got brighter
You winked at me in your specialized sunglasses
And offered me a cookie, said “no sugar just molasses”
Now Im sitting in the bed of a truck on a blanket that smells really really groovy
And the sound of your gentle finger picked guitar is really really soothing
You start to sing a little song you call moon rocking
And I hear my mind like a bird in the distance squawking
And someone offers me another cookie and I eat it
But the thing I didn’t realize
Was that there was pot inside
And now Im really high
The moon’s tearing through the sky
And I don’t wanna die
You put your hand in mine
And whisper pretty soon well be
moon rocking
