lyrics

Hold me down

What I'll say to you
You've heard a thousand times before
So what I'll say to you
Is a shorter version of the truth
But I'll only say it once

Hold me down
Hold me down

You've got me filling with helium
I'm tied to your string
And I don't want to float away
So hold me tight and don't ever let me go
And I promise not to pop

Hold me down
Hold me down

I find that I find that I'm constantly reminded
Of what I used to be
Inflated, elated, not so easily irritated
A charming sight to see
I'll pack up my bags of strings and rags and marry me a kite
We'll be gone a while, but don't lose your smile
It'll never be so long

I have never been so afraid of floating up into the sky

So will you hold me down?
Hold me down

Since, he has turned his attention to the plight of the noble marmot. Every day's a struggle, but every day counts. ... more
