It's a thing that holds cannonballs.

Ever hear the phrase "cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey?"

Where that came from is when it became cold enough, the bends in the metal that held the cannonballs in place would pop back into shape, and the balls would go rolling off.

Yup.

i knew there had to be a drinker here somewhere!! thank you sooo much.. i had heard parts in the song where it says "lift the glass" and "drink up" or something.. but i wasn't sure. i mean.. i didn't want my girls to be dancing to a song about guys putting date rape drugs in girls drinks at a club! LOL... but i think a little alcohol wont hurt for a competition routine. hehehe. THANKS AGAIN!:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
