Baby, you're not afraid of flying   You just think you are   It's all mental, darling   Think about how safe we are      Pretty soon we'll be in Japan   We can get everything done   And not too long after that we'll be married   Won't that be fun?      She says, Look around this flight   Look at all these people goin' to Japan   They seem mostly black   I don't see a single asian      What'd the pilot just say?   We're headed to Zaire?   Somehow we must have made a mistake   We shouldn't be here      Oh no, I shoulda known by the Halloween snow   That this trip just could not go away   I'll be lost in the jungle with my fiance   Oh damn, I should be dating a more confidant man   I says, Honey please don't be cruel   Words come out of your mouth into a puddle of drool      What are we gonna do when we land, she says   We're not prepared for this   Baby, stop talking so much   It's making me nervous      How about instead of being afraid of flying   And thinkin' 'bout our imminent time   You sneak off five minutes after me   Let's go to the airplane bathroom      She says, Honey not now   It's the wrong time   My lips began to move and I said   I'll give you the wrong time      It's two in the morning   And we're on the wrong flight   But when we're lost in Africa   It'll be alright      I think I wanna see the purple and pink   Of the sunset shining through the trees   I'm never gonna learn to speak Japanese   I know I wanna stand in the Halloween snow   But I don't know how I ended up this year   And everything is happenin' too soon this year      Oh, too soon!   We're only kids!      We're touching down   And maybe I don't love you   The ground looks so brown   This can't be Japan, I know it can't      This is scarier   Than a hundred million plane wrecks   You seem so strange and I wonder   I achingly wonder what's gonna happen next
