Loony Balloon

The world's spinning round like a looney balloon

Heading for a collision with Saturn and Mars

And we're narrowly missing the man in the moon

Spinning out of control crashing into the stars

Have we all lost our gravity, reason and sanity?

Is this the price that we pay?

Have we now lost our way on this looney balloon?

Drift away, just drift away

It's so easy to just drift away

Drift away, just drift away

Drifting away on this looney balloon

The air is running out, the computer's gone down

The mechanic just panicked, he's nowhere to be found

So automatic control is just spinning us round

No point screaming in space, you just can't hear a sound

Now the pilot's gone mad, he just jumped overboard

With a lunatic smile on his face

And he laughed as he cut the umbilical chord

Now he's drifting forever in space

Drift away, just drift away

It's so easy to just drift away

Drift away, just drift away

Drifting away on this looney balloon

We're out of control on this looney balloon

Narrowly missing the planets and stars

Even optimists say that it's all gloom and doom

We've got to get somewhere or hit something soon

First class and economy, we all played the game

For selfish profit and gain

So together we'll all go insane on this looney balloon

Drift away, hey, just drift away

Drifting away on this looney balloon

Drift away, hey, just drift away

Drifting away on this looney balloon

Drift away, hey

Drift away. Drift away
