because you are using hte wrong move mode
you're probably got it in Object coordinates
change it to World mode
do that by either...
double clicking the move tool on the left
or
selecting the move tool (either click it or hit w) and then click the attributes button at the top right
or
hold down w and hold down left mouse and do it from the menu that pops up
that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"
