Baby, you're not afraid of flying |
|
You just think you are |
|
It's all mental, darling |
|
Think about how safe we are |
|
Pretty soon we'll be in Japan |
|
We can get everything done |
|
And not too long after that we'll be married |
|
Won't that be fun? |
|
She says, Look around this flight |
|
Look at all these people goin' to Japan |
|
They seem mostly black |
|
I don't see a single asian |
|
What'd the pilot just say? |
|
We're headed to Zaire? |
|
Somehow we must have made a mistake |
|
We shouldn't be here |
|
Oh no, I shoulda known by the Halloween snow |
|
That this trip just could not go away |
|
I'll be lost in the jungle with my fiance |
|
Oh damn, I should be dating a more confidant man |
|
I says, Honey please don't be cruel |
|
Words come out of your mouth into a puddle of drool |
|
What are we gonna do when we land, she says |
|
We're not prepared for this |
|
Baby, stop talking so much |
|
It's making me nervous |
|
How about instead of being afraid of flying |
|
And thinkin' 'bout our imminent time |
|
You sneak off five minutes after me |
|
Let's go to the airplane bathroom |
|
She says, Honey not now |
|
It's the wrong time |
|
My lips began to move and I said |
|
I'll give you the wrong time |
|
It's two in the morning |
|
And we're on the wrong flight |
|
But when we're lost in Africa |
|
It'll be alright |
|
I think I wanna see the purple and pink |
|
Of the sunset shining through the trees |
|
I'm never gonna learn to speak Japanese |
|
I know I wanna stand in the Halloween snow |
|
But I don't know how I ended up this year |
|
And everything is happenin' too soon this year |
|
Oh, too soon! |
|
We're only kids! |
|
We're touching down |
|
And maybe I don't love you |
|
The ground looks so brown |
|
This can't be Japan, I know it can't |
|
This is scarier |
|
Than a hundred million plane wrecks |
|
You seem so strange and I wonder |
|
I achingly wonder what's gonna happen next |
