Oh, I'd like to visit the moon
In a rocket ship high in the air
Yes, I'd like to visit the moon
But I don't think I'd like to live there

Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above
I would miss all the places and people I love
So although I may like it for one afternoon
I don't want to live on the moon

Or I could travel under the sea
I could meet all the fish everywhere
Yes, I'd travel under the sea
But I don't think I'd like to live there

Though I'd stay for a day there if I had my wish
But there's not much to do when you're friends are all fish
And an oyster and clam aren't real family, so I don't want to live in the sea

I'd like to go to the jungle, hear the lions roar
Go back in time and meet a dinosaur
There's so many strange places that I'd like to be
But none of them permanently

So if I should visit the moon
Well I'll dance on a moonbeam and then
I will make a wish on a star
And wish I were home once again

Though I'd like to look down at the earth from above
I would miss all the faces of the people I love
So although I may go I'll be coming home soon
Cause I don't want to live on the moon
No I don't want to live on the moon
