The Lyrics
Every female Penn State Shenango student knows that I am their friendly balloon man on campus. I may be the only person in America who gives out helium-filled balloons to his female friends on campus. I am not sure who my counterparts are in other countries.
Down in Pennsylvania at Penn State Shenango
Telly pole or your natural soul
Keeps you on the edge of your seat
Balloon man walks on campus
And then the girls start coming in
(Pretty soon you got) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
You got balloons on campus, on Fridays
Sharon to State College
Light breeze in your face
Keep your balloons tied to your wrists
So it won't fly over the place
The lampposts are all shining
Way out on campus
(It looks just like) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
(Looks like) balloons on campus, on Fridays
When it's midnight down in Pittsburgh
Shining moonbeams on a river
They come from miles around to dance the night away
And dig the good time sounds they all play
And all across the river
Night lights shining in
(It looks just like) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
(Feels like) balloons on campus, on Fridays
(Pretty soon you got) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
You got balloons on campus, on Fridays
Telly pole or your natural soul
Keeps you on the edge of your seat
Balloon man walks on campus
And then the girls start coming in
(Pretty soon you got) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
You got balloons on campus, on Fridays
Sharon to State College
Light breeze in your face
Keep your balloons tied to your wrists
So it won't fly over the place
The lampposts are all shining
Way out on campus
(It looks just like) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
(Looks like) balloons on campus, on Fridays
When it's midnight down in Pittsburgh
Shining moonbeams on a river
They come from miles around to dance the night away
And dig the good time sounds they all play
And all across the river
Night lights shining in
(It looks just like) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
(Feels like) balloons on campus, on Fridays
(Pretty soon you got) balloons on campus
(Just like) balloons on campus
You got balloons on campus, on Fridays
