Doesn't it have a day and a night just like earth does um sometimes?

The quote was from the most thought provoking album to say the least of it for its time, hell its will be timeless. I will be on a few.
"...and everything under the sun is in tune but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.""
There is no dark side of the moon really. Matter of fact it's all dark....The only thing that makes it look light is the sun.Same thing with the earth, i guess. I don't really know, I was drunk at the time.
Well, shine on you crazy diamonds. I have worn out my welcome with random precision.
Moooon not Bad. Earth good?
*wonders off.
