Pop Will Eat Itself - Nightmare At 20,000 Feet lyrics

What you're looking at could be the
End of a particularly terrifying nightmare
It isn't, it's the beginning
(Welcome to hell)

Sweating on the top line at the airline
Check-in, not check out
Wish I could get the hell out
This is no joke
The thing could go up in smoke
Or plummet to the ground as
The G-force pulls us down
Flight! Fright! Get uptight!
Throw a seven in the clouds
And out go your lights
City to city, state to state
Roasting coast to coast in
A megaton freight crate

Hurtle down the runway on a
One-way trip to heaven
It's hell on wheels in a 747
I get a little freaky when there's
Only air and steel beneath me
(Fasten your seatbelts
We hope you enjoy the ride)

Junk metal in the air it's a total nightmare
At 20, 000 feet junk metal in the air
It's a total nightmare at 20, 000 feet

Well, are you ready for a rough
Ride? This could be suicide
Turbulance ahead
I think my lunch is on the uprise
Far out! This dread ain't funky
My hair's on end, there's no blood left in me
It's not the car, or the bus, or the train
It's the plane
When we hit top speed, it's always the same
Sweating red-hot but chilled to the bone
Side to side, bouncing on the ozone

Tranquilise me, hypnotise me
Techno-fear has paralyzed me
All around me, people grinning
Laughing while my head is spinning
Shaking like a leaf from my head to my feet
Strapped to a seat at 20, 000 feet

(Safer in the air than on the ground)
(Safer in the air than on the ground)
(Safer in the air than on the ground)
(Safer in the air, Attention, emergency)

Junk metal in the air it's a total nightmare
At 20, 000 feet junk metal in the air
It's a total nightmare at 20, 000 feet

(Safer in the air than on the ground)
(Safer in the air than on the ground)
(Safer in the air than on the ground)
(Safer in the air, safer in the air)
If I ever get my hands on
That fucking son of a bitch
Who built that fucking plane i swear
I'll rip his goddamn fuckin' face off

Junk metal in the air it's a total nightmare
At 20, 000 feet junk metal in the air
It's a total nightmare at 20, 000 feet
Junk metal in the air it's a total nightmare
At 20, 000 feet
