Millencolin Balanced Boy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, balanced boy is who I am
I'm like a mix between a wolf and a lamb
I starve myself in fall and spring
But with Yule and summer live like a king

I'm a mystery
Best not to be explored
A sweet melody
Played over dissonant chords

[Hook]
I am a balanced boy

[Chorus]
I bear this complex paradox inside
I'm Jekyll and I'm Mr. Hyde
I will fabricate and I'll destroy
I am a balanced boy

[Verse 2]
I donate mighty to the poor
Every Friday entering the liquor store
My aim is to live my life fast
A way to escape the future and the past

A balanced boy
You are in full moon
Artificial joy
Is what you will consume

[Hook]
If you're a balanced boy

[Chorus]
I bear this complex paradox inside
I'm Jekyll and I'm Mr. Hyde
I will fabricate and I'll destroy
I am a balanced, I am a balanced boy

[Bridge]
In a world far from harmony
I'll best you with generosity
I'll manifest myself through charity
Yeah, in a world of absurdity
I compensate instability
Not everyone can be as balanced as me

[Hook]
Oh, I am a balanced boy

[Chorus]
I bear this complex paradox inside
I'm Jekyll and I'm Mr. Hyde
I will fabricate and I'll destroy
I am a balanced boy

I am happy while I am on drugs
So my emotions, I have pulled the plug
I smoked the planet to buy my kid toys
I am a balanced boy
