The Terminal

(Music - M. Novak, K. Johnson, Lyrics - M. Novak, C. Webster)

Get some food or drink and board the plane
Its all part of the vacation game
In the Terminal is where it starts
Watching the people play their parts

CHORUS:

In the Terminal is where it starts
In the Terminal is where all depart
In the Terminal where strangers meet
Not a man on the street Not a friend you greet

Toddlers toddling and teens on phones
People in tears leaving their home
Too much luggage for a short trip
Men in suits drinking more than a sip

From how they’re dressed I’m projecting
Where they’re going and what they’re collecting
Reflecting to me their sense of being
I take it all in I enjoy what I’m seeing

CHORUS:

Your flight’s canceled comes over the speakers
All those folks mad now new flight seekers
The Terminals in charge it sets your fate
No matter what is done its gonna be a long wait.


I waited a long time
These two weeks are mine
An adventure is promised for a fee
Satisfaction is guaranteed

Waiting in line at the TSA
The first of many long long lines today
