[00:01.528] "This is your captain speaking, with just a little flight information
[00:04.604] Coming up on the left we're going to be catching a glimpse of the Grand Canyon
[00:08.037] On the right you can be able to see the Hoover Dam
[00:10.286] In just a a few minutes. We're flying at an altitude of 37,000 feet
[00:14.243] And our air speed is four hundred miles an hour...
[00:16.985] Couple a little facts here, I'm packing a Colt King Cobra
[00:20.605] That's a .357 caliber firearm with a black rubber-grip and a six inch barrel
[00:26.234] Also, the co-pilot is carrying a Kimber Custom defense pistol with all the bells
[00:30.556] And whistles you'd expect from a custom gun of that kind with an alloy frame
[00:33.589] And bevel treatment on the entire gun
[00:35.246] And our Chief Flight Attendant Roger has a uh Ruger Bearcat, that .22 with a hand-fluted cylinder
[00:41.153] All three are capable of piercing body
[00:43.583] Armor at a distance of up to twenty-seven feet and you can put a hole
[00:46.452] In human bone and flesh the size of the Grand Canyon, which
[00:48.874] By the way is coming up on the left hand side of the plane, so just
[00:52.207] Sit back, relax, and enjoy the rest of your flight..."
[00:56.968] From the top, la, la, la, la...
[01:01.237] La, la, la, la, lalalalala...
[01:07.555] La, la, la, la... la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
[01:15.614] Mentioned that he worked for the embassy
[01:18.008] People seem to find that interesting
[01:21.000] High status, intrigue and mystery
[01:23.172] Special code name on the hotel registry
[01:25.919] I love it when they say
[01:26.918] "Enjoy your stay"
[01:28.380] They say how they mean it
[01:29.691] Cause that's the way they been trained
[01:31.222] Show you to your room
[01:32.278] A suite with a view
[01:33.797] When, if anything at all
[01:34.958] Do not hesitate to call
[01:36.446] Nice! The greatest, the greatest
[01:39.413] Compliments, tooth brush, tooth paste, razors
[01:42.067] A Bible, a Qur'an in a drawer
[01:44.037] Or depending where you are
[01:45.255] Tend to whisper through the walls
[01:46.680] She was calling on God
[01:48.098] The greatest, the greatest
[01:50.395] Salutations, congratulations
[01:53.159] Reservations, exclusive arrangements
[01:55.821] Dinner with the patrons, the scenery is amazing
[01:58.535] It's so outrageous, they whisper when they say it
[02:01.299] When it's really real it's even realer than "The Matrix"
[02:04.016] Classic, modern, ancient, flagrant
[02:06.673] Get a special thrill every time they get to say it
[02:09.414] Peace! I work with the embassy
[02:12.316] On behalf of imagination industry
[02:15.083] I come visit, you come visit
[02:17.630] Such a pleasure, official business
[02:21.070] La, la, la, la...
[02:27.604] La, la, la, la, la-la-la-la...
[02:31.405] (Boogie, boogie, man, man)
[02:32.826] La, la, la, la...la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
[02:41.515] The Embassy...greetings
