My friend Simon, being a poorly student but unfairly talented, decided to make Lorin and I a song for our wedding present. The song had to include specific words, phrases and concepts that we got to choose. Amazingly, he managed to pull it all together into this classic track called “Moon Buggy Honeymoon”.

Lyrics:
Moon Buggy Honeymoon
Grant and Lorin’s Wedding Present Song
Hey there Lozza and G, freshly married and busting with glee
I suggest one thing for your honeymoon, why not hoon with a buggy on the moon?
Relax about rock cavities; you can jump real far in moon gravity
Forget about flying saucers, your buggy has space mortars
When aliens spot you zipping along, they pause and they say:
“Our cruisers can’t repel firepower of that magnitude”
So sit back and enjoy the ride, and by the way,
Congratulations guys!
Bloody good effort Lozza and G
You’ve got yourself all married
Quite a clever move by you guys
Cause now you’ve got a friendship that the police will recognise
Congratulations
From here on in the church will bless your romancing
And even though this is written beforehand
I’m pretty sure the party’s gonna be awesome
But now it’s time for moon buggy adventuring
Moon buggy time go on get in
Time to take one for a spin
Guess who’s your driving instructor?
It’s Yoda, Jedi Master!
So yo Yoda, what have you got in store on the honeymoon moon cruise today?
“Things you will see, other places”
That’s sounds awesome, let’s cruise!
“Patience!”
But we’re ready to go…and you know what happened to Anakan when you held him back
Lunar navigation in your moon buggy
Starlight constellations make it easy to see
Women are from Eastbourne and men are from Timaru
We’re all in this together when we’re cruising on the moon
There’s no coverage for your iPhone
But Willis came along so you will never be alone
On the moon he’s no ordinary pet
He’s a galactic cosmic space cat!
But now it’s time for moon buggy adventuring
Yo Yoda, how about a solo on that space organ!
But now it’s time for popcorn and ice-cream
Yoda would just like to say one more thing
He said he’s checked his user interface, and that marmite is better than vegemite because it’s got more force in it
And he also said there is no one ring to rule them all…but then he winked.
