god gave us helium
to prepare us for women
he only works
in mysterious ways
if you refuse
to see the simplicity
in his lessons
take helium for example
swallowed by a plain old balloon
it defies gravity
and you learn pretty quickly
to hold onto it for dear life
an infatuation we all develop
as tiny little children
and we refuse to let go
long after we've grown out of balloons
now that i'm a little older
i see god at work at every country fair
and every time i see a child
cry over a balloon that got away
i see a hundred men
keeping their tears to themselves
thinking just you wait
you little bastard
this is only just the beginning
