with XTC, I see no reason to change now.
I have the lyrics to several songs painted on the doors in my music room. I am thinking of going to the doors in the hallway. I want and XTC song, and I have been going round and round on which song. This seems to be the one I am drawn to.......one late night/early morning, I am just going to get out the brush and paint and go for it.
Yes, I think this is it
The Last Balloon is one of my favorite tracks from the "Apple" sessions. (unfortunately, no official videos for this CD)
The last balloon is leaving, the last balloon from fear
The last balloon is leaving, form that line right here
Climb aboard, climb aboard you menfolk
You won't need any bombs or knives
Climb aboard, climb aboard you menfolk
Leave all that, to your former lives
Drop it all
The last balloon is leaving, the last balloon of all
The last balloon is leaving, undress, discard, let fall
Climb aboard, climb aboard you women
You won't need any gems or furs
Climb aboard, climb aboard you women
Leave all that to the bad old years
Drop it all
The last balloon is leaving, the last balloon they'll fly
The last balloon is leaving and we won't qualify
Climb aboard, climb aboard you children
Move aloft, while you're fleet and fast
Climb aboard, climb aboard you children
We're weighed down by our evil past
Drop us all, you should drop us all
Drop us all and free your hand
Drop us all, you should drop us all
Drop us all like so much sand
"drop it all"
three very, very wise words
