I was standing on the wrong side of the moon
A mannish boy to face the brook
Standing on the same ground that Elvis shook
With a wounded heart
Like commercial art
It hurts
I was standing on the wrong side of the moon
Where CNN don't ever go
A little bit like Henry David Thoreau
I walked the line
But it wasn't mine to walk!
The Afghan hounds are barking in the Hallway
But my baby has the gun and she don't know any Hallway
Me I know a change is gonna come
To the kittle people lost with no home
Cause I was standing on the wrong side of the moon
Making all my monkey plans
Shaking like a leaf where others would dance
Deaf dumb and glad
Like a TV-ad
It hurts
I was standing on the wrong side of the moon
A mannish boy to face the brook
Standing on the same ground that Elvis shook
With a wounded heart
Like commercial art
It hurts
