Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a 16inch Dob
\nwith a pinpoint image – that would be top !
\nSend clear skies along and I’ll find a new Hale-Bopp
\nOh Lord, won’t you buy me a 16inch Dob.<\/p>\n
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me an eyepiece from Meade
\nabout 5 Millimeters – that’s what I need !
\nAnd think about the weather which is very bad, indeed.
\nOh Lord, won’t you buy my an eyepiece from Meade !<\/p>\n
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night without town.
\nI’m counting on you Lord, please don’t let me down !
\nShut down the lights ’cause all the stars are drown(ed)
\nOh Lord, won’t you buy me a night without town.<\/p>\n
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me an 8inch starfire.
\nA beautiful refractor is what I admire.
\nI’ll go and watch planets – that’s my desire
\nOh Lord, won’t you buy me an 8inch starfire.<\/p>\n
Oh Lord, won’t you give me a night on the hill
\nf s t mag seven would fill the bill
\nseeing 0 point 3 – oh what a thrill
\nOh Lord, won’t you give me a night on the hill<\/p>\n

\nI’ve begun working on that quite early in 1996 – but I forgot about it until
\nJanuary 2000 (!). For obvious reasons I built an 16inch dob by myself more than years ago and didn’t rely on prayers. Likewise, I managed to obtain a beautiful refractor, although much smaller than stated in the lyrics.<\/p>\n
\nI have no endorser contract with Meade or Starfire. I mention these brands just because their names work wonderfully. At least much better than Pentax, Celestron, TeleVue or so ….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
