- Not to be confused with The Floating Song from The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.
"(We're) Floating" is a song from The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars. It is sung by various anthropomorphic balloons that Toaster and the other appliances encounter while traveling through space. The song is later reprised during the end credits. However, on the VHS release, the end credits are sped up, as they remove the verses sung by the Woodstock and Wild West balloons.
Lyrics[]
Balloons: Oh, we're floating west and east
We go floating free and released
From the hands that gave us flight
Hands too little to hold on tight
Now we float forever in and out of sight
Woodstock Balloon: It wasn't so much the music
Or the rain that started to fall
The miracle part of Woodstock
Was that peace could happen at all
Peace could happen at all
Heard they tried it again
But me and my string
Feel you can't relive a onetime thing
Balloons: So we're floating, floating south and north
We go floating, floating backwards and forth
'Cause of hands that gave us flight
Hands too little to hold on tight
Now we float forever in and out of sight
Wild West Balloon: At Buffalo Bill's wild west show
Well, it sure was noisy and wild
I bobbled above the grandstand
From a sticky hand of a child
When Bill waved to the crowd
'Twas fine fun until
That small hand that held me waved to Bill
He waved to Bill
Balloons: Now we're floating, floating west and east
We go floating, floating free and released
From the hands that gave us flight
Hands too little to hold on tight
Now we float forever in and out of sight
World's Fair Balloon: The circuses, fairs, and boardwalks
And all the special places we've been
We all have our tales to tell you
And all the time in the world to tell them in
Balloons: So come floating, floating east and west
It's like walking when you're at rest
Come and join our endless flight
From hands too little to hold on tight
Now we float forever in and out of sight
Woodstock Balloon: Float with us forever in and out of sight
Balloons: La, la, la, la, floating, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, floating, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, floating, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, floating, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, floating, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, floating...
