Hey Hey That's My Balloon

Hey Hey That's My Balloon

I'm making an observation

Bout the state of the world today

This is what I've come up with

In my own inimitable way

Maybe it's cuz I'm an old guy

It seems there's much more strife

There doesn't seem, like years ago

As much laughter in everyone's life

I know there'll always be conflict

Somewhere around the world

This nation or that gets aggressive

Controversy begins to swirl

Then one country threatens the other

Military action follows soon

We're like a bunch of nasty children

Yelling, ā€œHey that's my balloon!ā€

Seem like there isn't a cure for this

But there's always hope I guess

That mankind will see the utter futility

And realize it don't make no sense!
