I Hate To Fly, And Now I Know Why (Poem)

Written on the plane....


I hate to fly, and now I know why
As we rumble through the clouds
And the baby starts to cry
Was it worth the extra miles?
At the gate we were all smiles
But now this plane smells like shit
There's not denying it, I hate to fly

I hate to fly, cause I feel cooped up
As we're rockin side to side
Like a broken coffee cup
Sleep is but a dream at 3:15
And now I gotta pee
But the guy next to me, won't let me be
Oh God, I hate to fly

I hate to fly, and now I know why
Didn't they used to call it the friendly skies?
We're doomed to suffer and sweat
Why is there no air conditioning on this jet?
But why ask why? When you know..
I hate to fly...

I hate to fly, and now I know why
The industry's bankrupt on a pack of lies
But we'll be back just like the year before
To cash in more airmiles
For another distant shore
