	Story Behind the Song One of our best-liked live numbers. The movie referred to at the end is 'Le Ballon Rouge' (The Red Balloon), the dialog free short by Albert Lamorisse, which we were fed pretty much annually in elementary school, and one of the very few things I genuinely appreciated about elementary school. I wonder if they still show it. I wonder whatever DID happen to that kid, after he sailed into the sky carried by all the sympathetic escapee helium balloons of Paris. Lyrics THE RED BUBBLE Last night, I got home with blood on my hands My own I did the dishes... for once... This small dishwashing liquid bubble captured my attention as it rose slowly into the air It seemed to beckon with it's swirling colors and all It left the kitchen and I followed It seemed to wanna Take me somewhere Down the hallway Past the bathroom The living room That's where ya do your living As we past a window I noticed that it became A miniature reflection of the entire night time sky It was like a bug or something exploring the house I started seeing things from a whole new perspective Kept getting closer and closer and more entranced At one point I just breathed in a little too deeply and PSHHHT! Straight into my head Do you remember that movie they used to show in school The Red Balloon? Whatever happened to that kid?
