water balloons

about

My cousin, Nicole, brought lots of water balloons to our family bbq. So fun.

lyrics

My cousin from the east coast showed up to our family BBQ with water balloons.
Nothing releases tension and pressure like a balloon.
She brought the type that has like 50 balloons all on one tree.
You hook up to one hose and all 50 fill up at the same time.
Get right to the fun.
Get to the F-U-N fun.
We split them up as we split ourselves up.
I couldn’t resist of course.
What I don’t understand is why people are afraid to get hit.
They cower like it’s going to hurt.
I’ve never been hurt by a water balloon.
I don’t think it’s possible. Maybe a baby.
So, with my arms stretched out like I was going for a hug, I walked right into a barrage of balloons.
Not one… Not one… not one of them hit me.
I guess they were so excited about an easy target that they didn’t aim.
My nephew was throwing them like he hoped they would hurt me.
Maybe that hurt me.
