I'm not a boy, I'm a big, fat balloon Flapping in the wind Floating over the treetops on a broken string I've never been tied down to anything Because I'm free I suppose I can go where I want to go I drift carelessly on a summer breeze I bounce above the trees I try to be cheerful but I can feel myself Deflating all the time up in the sky Because I'm a balloon on a broken string I'm not attached to anyone Or anything anymore Oh, oh, oh, schooby-doo, tra, la, la I'm sad and alone But you'd never know it to look at me I look ever so happy up here by myself But I wish sometimes I looked the way I felt Because I'm a balloon on a broken string I'm don't belong to anyone Or anything anymore, anymore I'm a balloon on a broken string I'm not attached to anyone or anything I'm a balloon on a broken string I don't belong to anyone or anything And I know I look shiny and bouncy But I'm all empty inside And I worry that if I was to just burst suddenly Then nobody would even notice me I know I look shiny and bouncy But I'm all empty inside And I worry that if I was to just burst suddenly Then nobody would even notice me I know I look shiny and bouncy But I'm all empty inside And I worry that if I was to just burst suddenly Then nobody would even notice me I know I look shiny and bouncy But I'm all empty inside And I worry that if I was to just burst suddenly Then nobody would even notice me
