[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
