I bought a balloon for twenty pence

 When I was at the fair

 I dropped it by mistake

 And it went right into the air

I missed it oh so terribly

 When up and up it flew

 And then I had a horrible thought

 it probably missed me too.

 But one thing made me happy

 As it floated in the sky

 It must have had a lovely view

 'Cos it was up so high.
