[Intro]
Check, mm, check, mm, check it out
Mm-mm
Uh huh, mh-hmm
Was that the intro?
I should have been in
Oh bo-bo-bo, yeah, yeah

[Chorus 1]
C moon, C moon, C moon is she
C moon, C moon, C moon to me

[Verse 1]
How come no one older than me
Ever seems to understand
The things I wanna do?
It will be L7
And I'd never get to heaven
If I filled my head with glue
What's it all to you?

[Chorus 1]
C moon, C moon, C moon is she, oh
C moon, C moon, C moon to me

[Verse 2]
Bobby lived with Patty
But they never told her daddy
What their love was all about
She could tell a number
That he thought of, but she never
Was the type to let it out
What's it all about?

[Chorus 2]
C moon, C moon, oh, C moon are we
I said, C moon, C moon, C moon are we

[Verse 1]
How come no one older than me
Ever seems to understand
The things I wanna do?
It will be L7
And I'll never get to heaven
If I filled my head with glue
What's it all to you?

[Chorus 1]
C moon, C moon, C moon is she
Oh, C moon, C moon, C moon to me

[Verse 2]
Bobby lived with Patty
But they never told her daddy
What their love was all about
She could tell her lover
That he thought but she never
Was the type to let it out
What's it all about?

[Chorus 2]
C moon, C moon, C moon are we
C moon, C moon, C moon are we

What's it all about?

C moon, C moon, C moon are we
C moon are we

Robert Smith

Robert James Smith (born April 21, 1959) is an English singer, musician, and lyricist who is best known as the frontman and principal songwriter of the influential English rock band The Cure and has been called a “rock anti-hero”.

Smith was originally inspired to become a musician by listening to his sister’s Beatles Help! album, “the melody of the Buzzcocks and Elvis Costello”, the “completely free” vibe he felt watching Jimi Hendrix, David Bowie (who proved “you could define your own genre and not worry about what anyone else is doing”) and Alex Harvey.

Originally just “the drunk rhythm guitarist who wrote all these weird songs”, Smith eventually took over vocals after he realized “I hated my voice, but I didn’t hate it more than I hated everyone else’s voice.” His distinctive sound and look, combined with his versatile and poignant songwriting, have made him “one of the most iconic rock stars of all time”. He is often also labeled a goth icon – something he rejects again and again. He told Rolling Stone in 2019:
