Un-Pop the Balloon

Un-pop The Balloon Accidents happen as they are caused Her favorite balloon, the pink one, popped Little Mary Popper insisted this was not a simple matter Like when mom and pop flushed the gold fish Sam Just because he became a little dead Replaced him with another Sam like friend Deceiving their child in disgrace with replicantes Don’t make the same mistake This balloon was her true favorite Not another like it found in nature Make it better!... She cried and cried We explained how it came to be Your granny blew it up for you to give it life To make you happy once upon a time A little boy came by and popped it with a pin Such rubber skin and fragments can't be fixed The same air that once filled it has expired Escaped into the atmosphere to balloon heaven Mary would have none of this She told her parents to fix it quick with tape and glue Or they'll get fired And don’t use old lady air this time Find baby’s breath and then effect repairs Un-pop my pink balloon real soon or I will quit
