The Arrivals Gate |
Gonna go out to the arrivals gate at the airport |
And sit there all day |
Watch people reuniting |
Public affection so exciting |
It even makes airports OK |
Watching children run |
With their arms outstretched |
Just to throw those arms |
Around their grandpa’s neck |
Watching lovers plant kisses |
Old men to their misses |
At their arrivals gate |
Watching a mother |
With a mother’s smile |
Don’t tell me to move |
I just wanna sit here for a while |
I have determined |
It’s a sure cure for cancer |
Watching excitement turn family dogs into dancers |
At the arrivals gate |
I got me a white bread sandwich |
With some shredded lettuce |
And I got me a ringside view |
For my quaint little fetish |
I just wanna drain my pink little heart of all its malice |
And kick back for the afternoon |
In this fluorescent palace |
Everybody’s in a hurry |
Here in purgatory |
Except for me |
I’m where I need to be |
At the arrivals gate |
