  • Somebody remind me where I am
    Miami or Timbuktu?
    Did I ever tell you my uncle's monkey ran away from the zoo?
    Would you tell me what this all means?
    What happens if I go through that door?
    'Cause I'm looking up at the ceiling, but it's turning into the floor

    When I'm bored, I, kinda drift away,
    I'm not sure, quite, why we work all day
    I've been thinking, and I've got this plan

    Let's go, right now

    Come meet me in the sky I'll be waiting for you
    And we can't hear what they say
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon (ha)
    Sing, sing along, along any song you want to
    Now we're so high, it can't rain
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon (ha)

    I don't like dropping names but Kurt Cobain is all in my face
    How the hell am I gonna tell him Elvis already took first base?
    In and out of the blue this cruise is losing altitude, all we need
    Is a little more elevation, take me back to where I can breathe

    When I'm bored, I, kinda drift away
    I'm not sure, quite, why we work all day
    I've been thinking, and I've got this plan

    Let's go, right now

    Come meet me in the sky I'll be waiting for you
    And we can't hear what they say
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon
    Sing, sing along, along any song you want to
    Now we're so high, it can't rain
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon (ha)

    Shake it, sha-shake it, shake it now
    Gimme, gi-gimme, gimme some
    Sailing sa-sailing through the clouds
    Trippin' trip trip it now

    Shake it, sha-shake it, shake it now
    Gimme, gi-gimme, gimme some
    Sailing sa-sailing through the clouds
    Trippin' trip trip it now

    Come meet me in the sky I'll be waiting for you
    And we can't hear what they say
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon
    Sing, sing along along any song you want to
    Now we're so high it can't rain
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon (ha)

    Come meet me in this
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon (ha)
    Come meet me in this
    Up in my air balloon, air balloon, air balloon (ha) Writer/s: Johan Karl Schuster, Lily Rose Beatrice Allen
