The Arrivals Gate

Lyrics

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
