Fifty one years ago we walked the moon Now there are plans to return there soon As time flies by, we celebrate each day at noon While singing and whistling to a happy tune Do we need to go back to that place Or take care of our own human race Time to put down the weapons and the mace Before there are no humans, not even a trace One person at a time is the way to start Beginning the process by doing our part Using our brain and our heart Wow, that really does sound smart Traveling again to the moon is a bad plan Use our resources to help woman and man Help others and become a fan In every way possible that we can
