Paws Up High

Letra

[Intro] Mission control, paws on the floor Tail wagging by the rocket door [Verse 1] Milo packed biscuits in a silver tin Luna checked the map with a crooked grin Captain wore goggles, ears in the breeze Three little astronauts headed past the trees The launchpad shook, then the engines roared Paws left Earth as the clouds got bored From the backyard fence to a cratered view Every dog on the crew knew what they had to do [Chorus] We’re flying to the moon, paws up high Leaving little paw prints in the sky No leash, no limits, just a big bright view Dogs on the moon saying, “Howl to you!” [Verse 2] They bounced through space in a slow-motion race With a tennis-ball planet tucked in the case Milo chased comets, Luna spun twice Captain found a moon rock looking mighty nice They called home once from a lunar ridge “Tell the cat downstairs we just crossed that bridge” Earth looked small like a blue chew toy And the whole crew barked with astronaut joy [Chorus] We’re flying to the moon, paws up high Leaving little paw prints in the sky No leash, no limits, just a big bright view Dogs on the moon saying, “Howl to you!” [Bridge] When the night gets long and the kennel feels small Dream past the gate, dream past the wall There’s a path through the dark where the brave ones roam And every good dog carries a little bit of home [Verse 3] They planted a flag made of red bandana Shared moon snacks underneath the panorama Luna made a toast with a water-bowl gleam “To the wildest walk in the wildest dream” Then the engines hummed for the trip back down With moon dust shining on every town They landed at dawn to a backyard parade And slept till noon in the rocket shade [Final Chorus] We’re flying to the moon, paws up high Leaving little paw prints in the sky No leash, no limits, just a big bright view Dogs on the moon saying, “Howl to you!” [Outro] Mission complete, but the dream runs soon Next stop Mars after dinner at noon Tail wags high beneath the silver moon Goodnight, brave dogs—see you soon
