Blood Red Balloon - Mystery Jets

Written by：Henry Harrison/Blaine Harrison/Jack Flanagan/William Reese/Kapil Trivedi

Blow the electric candle out

Let yourself slip away a while

Into the phosphorescent blue

That's swimming through the tubes in you

'Cuz you are made of water

Slowly synchronising with the moon

That rises from the sea in front of you

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood red balloon

Wandering naked though the street

Forewarning everyone you meet

You hold their fortune in your hand

See heaven in a grain of sand

Converse with the spiritual Sun

On primrose hill NW1

Emerging ghostly from the morning dew

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood red balloon

Don't close your eyes

You can't fight it

Don't close your eyes

You can't hide from it

Open your eyes

You can't fight it

Don't close your eyes

You can't fight it

Don't close your eyes

You can't fight it

Don't close your eyes

You can't hide from it

Open your eyes

You can't fight it

Don't close your eyes

I look into your staring eyes

And understand our future lies

With the destined demise of man

A mushroom cloud following an

Explosion filmed in surround sound

Sending deep tremors through the ground

Obscuring the innocent sky from view

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood red balloon

Like a blood

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes

Don't close your eyes
