The Kinks - Loony Balloon lyrics

[The Kinks - Loony Balloon lyrics]

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
