Balloon Man - Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians

作词：Robyn Hitchcock

作曲：Robyn Hitchcock

I was walking up Sixth Avenue

When balloon man came right up to me

He was round and fat and spherical

With the biggest grin I'd ever seen

He bounced on up toward me

But before we could be introduced

He blew up very suddenly

I guess his name was probably Bruce

And I laughed like I always do

And I cried like I cried for you

And balloon man blew up in my hand

He spattered me with tomatoes

hummus chick peas

And some strips of skin

So I made a right on 44th and

I washed my hands

When I got in

And it rained like a slow divorce

And I wish I could ride a horse

And balloon man blew up in my hand

I was walking up Sixth Avenue

When balloon man blew up in my face

There were loads of them on Bryant Park

So I didn't feel out of place

There must have been a plague of them

On the TV when I came home late

They were guzzling marshmallows

And they're jumping off the Empire State

And I laughed like I always do

And I cried like I cried for you

And balloon man blew up in my hand

Balloon man blew up in my hand
