My Birthday Moon Festival Lyrics

Steve Kilbey My Birthday Moon Festival

My birthday, the moon festival
My life in the sea of tears


My holiday, a misadventure
My soul, a short career
Like a lizard the road crawls forward
Into regions unexplored
By their boats the mayans stirred
Gold and silver soon flow aboard
My birthday, the moon festival
My legs a wisp of ghost
My clothing, cotton under paper
My shoes, a sharpened post
My birthday, the moon festival
