Balcony Man lyrics

What am I to believe?

I'm the balcony man

When everything is ordinary

until it's not

I'm the balcony man

I'm two hundred pounds

of packed ice

Sitting on a chair

and in the morning sun

Putting on my tap dancing shoes

Oh my lap dancing shoes

In the morning sun

I'm the balcony man,

I am Fred Astaire

You think you have a plan

until I hit the stairs

I'm a two hundred pound bag

of blood and bone

Leaking on your favorite chair

I put on my lap dancing shoes

In the morning sun

And this morning is amazing

and so are you

This morning is amazing

and so are you

This morning is amazing

and so are you

In the morning sun

What am I to think

on this balcony, Fred?

Where everything is amazing

that stays in bed

I'm a two hundred pound octopus

under a sheet

Dancing round your world

with my hands and feet

And this much

I know to be true

Yeah, this much

I know to be true

And this much

I know to be true

Yeah, this much

I know to be true

This morning is amazing

and so are you

This morning is amazing

and so are you

This morning is amazing

and so are you

This morning is amazing

and so are you

This morning is amazing

and so are you

This morning is amazing

and so are you

You are languid

and lovely and lazy

And what doesn't kill you

just makes you crazier
