Terminal exit

\'\' Passengers ont flight 666 to paradise 

are asked to proceed to the exit \".

  ------------------------------

I\'m waiting at the ill luck terminal .

 Coffin airways  tourist .

A soft voice coming out of nowhere 

invites the combustible lives  to heaven.

 Sometimes fate seems to hesitate .

Or to be a little distracted .

 It pops into your mind :

\'\' Dating for  tomorrow  ! \'\'

or : \'\' Welcome to a trip to nowhere ! \'\'

 The beautiful smiling hostess 

knows the afterlife plan .

\'\' It\'s too late now to find our way out the fog! \'\'

 The voice announces .

It  would be nice to get some sleep 

and try to dream .

  To let oneself be carried away 

on the arms of the graceful  hostess .

 The most beautiful love is always the one 

from the last hour ...

  \'\'  Lads and lolitas we\'ll be ahead of the time change ! \'\'

        The voice announces .

Passengers in a hurry never think to read 

the prayers handbook ! 

  I\'ve been wandering around this terminal 

for quite a while now  and that damn zinc

 still hasn\'t arrive ! 

  Or who knows ,maybe it never left ?

Why the hell ,wont\'t that Panam flight 

let the K.L.M  through ?

As if New york were becoming New Amsterdam again....

 Evil spirits never take instructions 

for the after life seriously ...

 \'\' Please shut up and prepare your souls ! \'\'

 The voice announces .

  - \'\' Mom when are we going to get home ? \'\' 

    Elvis is dead  .

The hotel California opened its doors .

  at the end of the voyage ,

star wars  is your new  hope ! 

  After that I don\'t know  .

But i\'m still here and my cup of coffee

has gone cold ...

  Terminal exit .
