Move Over Moon

Kate & Anna Mcgarrigle


My horoscope warns me don't talk to strangers 
Talk dark and handsome or short bald and plain 
My soothsayer says to sit tight 
And wait for my stars to get rearranged 
So don't talk to me 
Don't bother me 
I'm just waiting for my heavens to change 

Move over Moon 
Get out of Uranus 
'cause this house is anxious 
For the sun to come in 
'cause it's on the rise 
It's on the rise 
It's time for my new day to begin 
So move over Moon 

I sit at my window 
By the first light of dawn 
Tapping on the glass 
As I worry out loud 
I'm waiting for a wind to blow 
And break up this sinister cloud 
Till the stillness and calm of the early morning snaps 
With the screeching of tires and the honkin' of the horns 
They're pushin' and shovin' downtown 
God knows nerves are frayed and badly torn 
Still don't talk to me, don't bother me 
I don't know yet what aspect is formed 

Here is my nickel and here is my dime 
Go down to the corner and buy me the Times 
And look it up, look it up 
Tell me if my planets are all in a line 
All in a line 

Move Over Moon 
Get out of Uranus 
'cause this house is anxious for the Sun to come in 
'cause it's on the rise, it's on the rise 
It's time for my new day to begin 
So Move over Moon
