High Llamas – Black Balloon lyrics

what's the challenge for today
come on Carmen give the boys a clue
god I know you think we're sad
admiration always makes you mad

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

in the English contryside
Carmen comes to terms with History
trades her sister for a horse
take me where you think I ought to be

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon

love your children, love your wife
give them money, leave their life
flying's cool, dump the car
i'm going to America

i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
i'm gonna fly my Black Balloon
