Pan American nightmare, ten thousand feet fun-fair Convinced that I don't care, safe as houses I swear I was just sitting musing, the virtues of cruising When altitude dropping, my ears started popping One more red nightmare ♪ Sweat beginning to pour down my neck as I turn 'round I heard fortune shouting, get off of this outing A farewell swan song see, you know how turbulence can be The stewardess made me but the captain forbid me One more red nightmare ♪ Reality stirred me, my angel had heard me The prayer had been answered, a reprieve had been granted The dream was now broken though rudely awoken Really safe and sound, asleep on the greyhound One more red nightmare
