Flying on Helium
See those two balloonsFlying above the treetops?That's me and youa child tied us together and let us go.Look at us,Shining like two stars in the daytime.And we are hereOn the whim of a child on the whim of the wind on a whim.OhhhWe were high on hopeWe were low on cashSo we live low to the ground in our happy delirium.We were flyin' on heliumWe were flyin' on heliumHow many deflated balloonsCover the floors of the oceans?Looks like me and youTraveled far and wide then we diedBut I've got a hunch that we ain't made of colored rubber and ribbon.We are the air, the air that cannot be contained by anything.Ohhh we were high on hopeSongtexteWe were low on cashSo we live low to the ground in our happy deliriumWe were flying on heliumWe were flying on heliumSee those two balloons?See those two balloons?Flyin'See those two balloons?See those two balloons?Flyin'We are here on the whim of a child on the whim of the wind on a whimWe were high on hope, we were low on cashSo we live low to the ground in our happy deliriumWe were flying on heliumOhhh we were flying on heliumFlyin' on heliumFlyin' on helium Aus Songtexte Mania
