Add another balloon to the balance
Watch the world from dizzy heights
Here’s another stone to pull you down
A day full of maybes and mights
Some days balloon turns to stone
And other days it’s the reverse
A terrible time turned out for the best
Then eating cake made things worse
Appreciate and accept these things
See them for what they really are
Everyone faces this difficult balance
And everyone has got this far
There are ways to share the weight
So be grateful when getting older
It’s ok to stay behind a while
Waiting to find the balloon holder

They laugh at me because I’m different. I laugh at them because they’re all the same.
