Chinese balloons
Floating in a cloudless sky
Watch them all go drifting by
Far from the ground
Hardly ever make a sound
Americans will shoot them down

And if we can learn to live in peace and harmony
The world would be a better place
Happy and smiling for everyone to see
Feel the wind upon your face
We can rise up to the moon
Like Chinese balloons

Wireless headphones
Jogging over sticks and stones
Everyone is on their phones
Flames in the fire
Up among the dreaming spires
Tripping over drums and wires

And if I can learn to be a better version of
The person that I want to be
Nothing shameful in wishing for peace and love
To live in perfect harmony
Drifting out into the afternoon
Like Chinese balloons

It was an abundance of caution the reason why they shot them down
I'm not sure caution is something you can have an abundance of

Chinese balloons
Photographs of Russian goons
Playing in the sandy dunes
Baffling press release
Just another palm to grease
I don't think the war will cease

And if we can stop just for a moment to think twice
Something you will not regret
Chance is just another roll of the dice
What you give is what you get
Summer's evening light in June
Like Chinese balloons

Chinese balloons
High above the new wind farm
Clanging of the fire alarm
Stopped to read the news
Panic over guns and cruise
Diplomats will light the fuse

And if we can make sense of the world in which we live
That would be a place to start
There's no point in taking when you can give
Don't wanna tear the place apart
Sun is setting in Rangoon
For Chinese balloons
