So, a couple goes and buys some balloons. They let them go. Then, they show up on some radar and they think the balloons are missles (bug in the software.) Aaaah, it's war! They send ourr the troops and then bomb a city.

At the end he's in the city, which is now dust. All because of the ballons. Sad, powerful, good ass song.

never thought of it that way... hmmm
