Well Yeast eats, just like us. They eat sugar. Just like us they build up gas and release as what we call methane (aka commonly known as farting,medical term flatulence)

The sugar they eat builds gas up and releases it as Carbon Dioxide.

Why wouldn't yeast and water inflate a balloon unless you add sugar?

The sugar is needed as food for the yeast. The yeast gives off carbon dioxide as it digests the sugar. The carbon dioxide could be used to inflate the balloon. Without the sugar, the yeast remains dormant and does not give off carbon dioxide.
