Lyrics:
Hey man what's your name?
I've seen your face____ always before
It's happenin'_____ to a cosmic thing
?compligate? I was looking for yeah
Hungry, that's no drag
It's nothing that a trip won't cure
Corrision is in that bag
Selfisch crowd come back for more
Well I reached in the bag for a new life too
And all I got out 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 to say about carmas true
Cos all I've got left is a black balloon
is a black balloon
is a black balloon
is a black balloon
yeah yeah yeah
