The striking workers say they just want to be paid what they're worth. They're not 'asking for the moon'.
The 'moon' isn't out tonight. = There's no 'moon' tonight. [=the moon cannot be seen tonight]
the first 'moon' [='lunar'] landing [=the first time people landed a spacecraft on the moon]
(..) (I ONLY HAVE EYES FOR YOU BY FRANK SINATRA) * Are the stars out tonight? * * I don't know if it's cloudy or bright * * 'Cause I only have eyes for you, dear * * The moon may be high * * But I can't see a thing in the sky * * 'Cause I only have eyes for you * Here you go, two beers. Thank you sir. (..)2016 Café Society
