Because the Stars Never Shoot

Because the stars never shoot, I'll aim for the moon

Why not, it'll be up soon

I wish I could wish on the moon

And the man in it, wrapped in his own bright cocoon

I wonder if that cow lives on the moon

You know, the one from the nursery rhyme with the dish and the spoon

There's so many faces-I mean phases-of that moon

A single wish on one is sure to come true

Stars? I mean, why wish on something that can't be up at noon?

Because the stars never shoot, I'll aim for the moon
