about

This week's assignment is from Corky:
"Write a song in first person about someone who works in a balloon manufacturing plant. (You are the person at the plant). You may not use any of the following words:
I, Me, My, Mine, You, Yours, His, Hers, Them, Theirs, She, He, We, Us, our, ours,
Melody and style are wide open!
Have fun!"

lyrics

Pressure, all this pressure, all this pressure
Threatening to pop
Higher, floating higher, ever higher
'Til it reaches the top
Dying, feel like dying, feel like crying
Some days it never stops

Blowing across the room
Lives exploded far too soon
Trying to make it to the moon
Then just gone

Waiting, simply waiting, this is grating
On some nerves
Looking for a reason, for a season
To return
Watching as the clock ticks, all the artists
Start to turn

Blowing across the room
Lives exploded far too soon
Trying to make it to the moon
Then just gone
Then just gone
Then just gone

Pressure, all this pressure, all this pressure
Threatening to pop

Blowing across the room
Lives exploded far too soon
Trying to make it to the moon
Then just gone
