XTC was a New Wave band from Swindon, England, active between 1977 and 2005. The band enjoyed some chart success, including the UK and Canadian hits "Making Plans for Nigel" (1979) and "Senses Working Overtime" (1982), but are perhaps even better known for their long-standing critical (rather than commercial) success. more »

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
