The perils of air travel

Lyrics

30.000 Feet Up In The Air
Verse 1
We're 30,000 feet up in the air
The cabin wall's developing a tear
The inside of the window's damp
Every other steward's camp
We're 30,000 feet up in the air
Verse 2
We're 30,000 feet up in the air
The seatbelt's tangled in my underwear
My seat is right beside the can
My meals all smell of Algesan
We're 30,000 feet up in the air
Chorus 1
We're 30,000 feet up in the air
We're at warp speed but we're not going anywhere
If I was religious, I would say a prayer ...for you
We're 30,000 feet up in the air
Verse 3
We're 30,000 feet up in the sky
I'm in a cold sweat, but my mouth is dry
The girl behind's voice is so grating
Her dad's bowels are evacuating
We're 30,000 feet up in the sky
Verse 4
We're 30,000 feet above the ground
My headache's started now to pound and pound
For 3 hours to land we've been waiting
Now my heart's defibrillating
We're 30,000 feet above the ground


Chorus 2
We're 30,000 feet above the ground
I regret the 20th whisky that I downed
The recycled air goes round and round
We're 30,000 feet above the ground
Verse 5
We're 30,000 feet up In the sky
I think the pilot's forgotten how to fly
Next to me is a drama queen
She's all tapped out of drammamlne
We're 30,000 feet up in the sky
Verse 6
We're 30,000 feet up In the air
The whole plane Is bathed In a blinding glare
I think we're heading for the sun
Looks like we've passed Apollo One
We're 30,000 feet up in the air
