When a dragon eats the morning sun, the kids all stop to watch the fun. It's a solar eclipse, not the apocalypse, just the moon and sun for breathless moments aligned as one. Let me make one thing completely clear, I'm talkin' 'bout the heliosphere. Rather distant, I fear, you can't get there from here ninety ty two point ninety six kajilion miles, my dear. Day for night, it's a rare and unusual sight, when the sun hides its fact with the moon, and all the stars, who should be fast asleep, come around to say good afternoon. Sparks that are arcing and arcs that are sparking, and flares exploding through space. That's the corona seen from Pomona; it's a nice place. Now the dragon's gone, the sun's okay. The kids run off to laugh and play, and the night is the night and the day is the day, and the moon and the sun go their separate ways, but a bit of moonlit magic has has been left behind to comfort you today.

Low light and fire-flies, a soft wind, moonrise... The stllness implies a time of equipoise and freedom. Free to simply be... No striving, low power... Arriving this hour, and there's a night to come, delicious. We are not alone, a light among the trees. The play of moonlight on the lake, the breeze. Savor while we may this peaceful summer eve... All too soon we leave, and the summer's gone and autumn's come to stay... with me until the moon tops the hill. Summer is almost gone.

[Verse] We hang it high, we limbo low. We play it cool, avoid the whole imbroglio. We're Sunday punchin', poppin' fresh. Kryptonian, we're cooking up some awesome sauce, oh yes. We're swingin' for the fences now, we're singin' from the heart and we know how. [Chorus] When the road gets rough and rougher, then we drop it down. And when life gets tough and tougher, we just take the whole thing downtown. Big to-do? We're kung fu fightin' like a ninja battling Bruce Lee at his best. We go for broke, it ain't no joke, we bring the hammer down, that's the way to make a good think better. We ante up, we double down. We stay in school, but spend the weekend way downtown. We're newly born, we're old as dirt. We're freshly shorn, and somethig of an extrovert. This ain't no goat rodeo, no side show, Front and center, dontcha know? [Chorus]
