The Pop Ups - Balloon lyrics

My daddy bought me a balloon the reddest you've ever seen We went into the zoo and then a monkey waved at me I did what I had to do, I waved back at him I opened my hand to wave, and I lost it I lost my red balloon it went up in the sky I watched my red balloon and I began to cry The next day in the park I got a green balloon It was a joy to see but it ended way too soon My friend threw a ball to me, I did what I had to do I opened my hand what else could I do I caught the ball, and I Lost my green balloon I lost my green balloon it went up in the sky I watched my green balloon so pretty as it flies The next day we took a drive out to the ocean side We smelled the fresh sea breeze with the windows open wide I got a blue balloon and we played in the sand In came a great big wave and I opened up my hand.. I lost my blue balloon it went up in the sky I watched my blue balloon and I began to cry Red balloon red balloon where have you gone? Flying away you left me all alone. I want to go to the sky with you. I feel so sad what can I do Green balloon green balloon you were my friend why do you have to go away from the land Blue balloon blue balloon what did I do, I just want to go to the sky with you The next day I was so sad. Dad said here now come with me He took me to a great big field You'll never believe what greeted me! The biggest balloon in the whole wide world! With a basket hanging down We climbed inside and flew away. So far above the ground! With my balloon Flying in the sky Waving to the birds Hey now watch me fly..
