Monster Magnet - Black Balloon Lyrics






Hey man what's your name?
I've seen your face always before
Tapped in to a cosmic fame
Got the gig I was looking for yeah
Hungry, that's no drag
It's nothing that a trip won't cure
Completion is in that bag
Selfish crowd come back for more
Well I reached in the bag for a new latitude
And all I got out was a black balloon
Was a black balloon
Was a black balloon
Hey babe, I'm out of the cage
Behind some glass miles away
So sue me for being too cool
I hate myself for wanting to play
Guess all I've got to say about karma's true
Cos all I've got left is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Is a black balloon
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

  1. K.... ....

    Every monster magnet album has a melancholic emotional , not hard rock song like this on it.
    Hopefully they will release a compilation of them someday to help complete the mosaic....

  2. K.... M....

    This album needs to be recognized as one of the greats in the stoner rock world. East coast vibes!

  3. R.... D....

    rock-n-roll

  4. P.... A....

    i guess people are unfamiliar with heroin in balloons? that's probably a good thing

  5. B.... G....

    For me the black balloon means one megalarge ambitions are suddenly deflated.

    B.... G....

    Bastian Gahler, dealers used to (maybe still do, IDK) give Heroin in balloons. It's about running out of Heroin, but songs are open to interpretation and sometimes have double meanings. So it's about whatever you think it's about.

    This was my song with a buddy musician I met years ago named Scott. We jammed on this song for a wanted public show every day in his basement. Fun times as a teenager in the 90's. I miss them. I wonder what happened to Scott but nobody close to him will answer me.

    D.... L....

    Dane, Scott? He joined Umbrella man. last I heard he was working in Racoon City.
