black balloon lyrics

Hey man, what's your name?
I've seen your face always before
You tapped in to a cosmic fame
Got the gig I was lookin' for, yeah

Hungry, that's no drag
It's nothing that a trip won't cure
Completion is in that bag
The 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

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 karma's true
Because all I've got left is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon

Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
