Airports Lyrics - Something Corporate

"You little creep" 

That's what she said 

"These quotes from your mother 

Get better everyday 

You'll be nothing 

Just like your father 

At least that's what the kids 

At school say" 

JAMIE spent her Christmas 

At the airport 

She said planes made her feel like 

She could get away 

I spent Christmas 

In the detox ward 

I wish I had an airport 

Someday 

'Cause some days are just so hard 

And we hung like spacstations and rocketships 

And dreamed like we were beings of the sky 

And we dressed like kings and queens and lovers and 

We shouted out into the night "We're never gonna die" 

And I've waited here for hours 

Hoping that you'd call 

My dialing finger's tired 

Your machine is full 

And I've taken eighteen showers 

Just to pass the time 

And that fuckin' phone just rang 

But it wasn't you on the line 

And you don't seem to mind 

That we hung like spacstations and rocketships 

And dreamed like we were beings of the sky 

And we dressed like kings and queens and lovers and 

We shouted out into the night "We're never gonna die" 

Spent New Year's Eve 

Just thinkin' of the summer 

Hopin' that at midnight 

You wouldn't be around 

And they say children 

Make the greatest soliders 

They do just like they're told 

And take up less space 

On the ground 

But I'm not fighting a war 

And it seems to me 

That we've been here before 

Where were you 

When I was at the airport? 

Where were you 

When I wanted to fly? 

Tell me, where were you 

When I was at the airport? 

These planes fall from the sky 

And we hung like spacstations and rocketships 

And dreamed like we were beings of the sky 

And we dressed like kings and queens and lovers and 

We shouted out into the night "We're never gonna die" 

I wish I had an airport 

Someday 

'Cause some days are just so hard
