From NPR:
The Heligoats — a strange name for a guy strumming a guitar, but oddly befitting someone who stuffs his songs with so many sideways ideas and observations. Given the yarns he spins here, it's easy to imagine Otepka envisioning a herd of goats with propellers and setting the concept to music.

G
We're different people now Our dogs are different dogs
Em
The worrying thing became a full time job
G
We tried and failed but nothing was really lost
Em G
Night came sooner than we thought, We have the light of the moon
G Em
G
Listen up now, you'll hear them singing from a garage
Em
On the side of a mountain, in the snow, in a mirage
G
Casting a shadow to the people on the flatlands
Em G Em
I traded in my skates to seal my fate, I’m closer to the moon
(CHORUS)
Am D7 G
What I put in was exactly what I saw come out
Am D7 G
The balance was such it left nothing to be wondered about
Am D7 G
If you were thinking of being evil, you'll be beaten to the punch
Am D7 G G Em (2x)
And if you're not looking for any trouble you'll be found with some
G
Well sure, you could say we could have done things differently
Em
But it's how things were done, it's how things now must be
G
It's not fair to say that I can't take care when we're all doomed
Em G Em
When we're all magnets for disaster and being pulled to the moon
G
So you wouldn't think they'd give me the time of day
Em
I knew how to say it, I just didn't know what to say
G
It took a sundial and a weather vein
Em G Em
To bring it to my attention that I was connected directly to the moon
CHORUS)
Am D7 G
Well, what I put in was exactly what I saw thrown out
Am D7 G
Yes, the balance was such it left nothing to be wondered about
Am D7 G
If you're thinking of being evil, you'll be beaten to the punch
Am D7 G
And If you're not looking for any trouble, you might be found with some
Am D7 G (2x)
G
I look around and ask myself, when will this ever stop
Em
I look outside at Mother Nature, at the government, at the cops
G
They are hiding, they're waiting, they are glowing in the dark
Em G
Is that the silhouette of a shark I see swimming across the moon
