Hey man what's your name?

I've seen your face always before

Tapped in to a cosmic fame

Got the gig I was looking for yeah



Hungry, that's no drag

It's nothing that a trip won't cure

Completion is in that bag

Selfish crowd come back for more



Well I reached in the bag for a new latitude

And all I got out was a black balloon

Was a black balloon

Was a black balloon

Hey babe, I'm out of the cage

Behind some glass miles away

So sue me for being too cool

I hate myself for wanting to play

Guess all I've got to say about karma's true

Cos all I've got left is a black balloon

Is a black balloon

Is a black balloon

Is a black balloon

Is a black balloon

Yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah
