On The Plane Lyrics - Defying Gravity - Wheeler Cheryl

You will need to arrive at a quarter to five 

If your plane is departing at ten 

When you called for a seat, we advised you to meet 

At the gate and we'd let you know then. 

The seats are so teeny you'll sit like Houdini 

Be quiet and listen to this 

If we should fall in a fiery ball 

Kiss your own ass good-bye, then your kids. 

On the plane, on the plane 

You will do exactly as we say 

You'll remain in your seat 

With your bags at your feet 

Till the speech is complete on the plane. 

If we sit on the runway from now until Monday 

Well, all we can say is "too bad" 

Up front there's free liquor and they get there quicker 

So those folks are not quite as mad. 

You've paid your dinero, this movie's just fair 

Oh, but here comes the part that's so good 

Then the pilot will cut in; "We can't see Cleveland 

But if it weren't cloudy, we could." 

On the plane all is well 

Just think of it as practicing for hell 

I'm in five, you're in four 

You lean back anymore 

you'll be shoved out the door of the plane. 

We are not responsible for... anything 

And everything can go wrong 

We really don't know where we'll go or when 

And you may never see your bags again 

Such a shame, on the plane. 

Your carry on stuff has to fit in this box 

If it doesn't and you make us wait 

You'll be pulled from the line with a hook from behind 

And then beaten and shot at the gate. 

The air that you're breathing's been re-circulating 

Since Orville and Wilbur were boys 

If you should choke, here's a thimble of coke 

You do realize that coughing annoys? 

On the plane, on the plane 

People are we perfectly insane 

The skies are not so friendly 

Delta isn't ready 

I prefer the bus 

USAIR begins with US 

It's truly torturous 

On the plane... on the plane.
