歌曲歌詞
The first time we flew it
It was cheap and cramped
The vodka running out
Half-way across the Atlantic
Even the steward screamed
And joined in it
We didn't think we were
Going to make it
Now we're stretched out in wide
Furry seats
Flicking through menus
A walk to the bar and there's
As much screw-top champagne
As we can drink
We're so easy
Taking turns having
Our photos taken
Sitting in front of smoked windows
Decanters of cheap
Whiskey in our hands
Drive into Manhattan on a date
With a starlet who's just talent
That's what people
Pay the money to see
Who're we to argue
Five hours now
It's been going on
And still we're watching all of it
Can you really believe all this
Can he really lie in bed at night
And marvel at his own genius
When do you lose the
Ability to step back
And get a sense of
Your own ridiculousness
They're only songs
Midnight and it's all over
Now it can really make us laugh
We're standing on our heads
Drinking sours of Crystel Schnapps
Now we're unable to
Step back or step forward
Swallowing a swallow
Tasting it again
It's not so unpleasant
Perhaps it's an acquired taste
The first time
It makes you sick
Then little by little
It becomes delicious
Showbiz people
Always there to be interested
In what you have say
We are artists
We are sensitive and important
We nod our heads earnestly
Already half-way down the champagne
On our way to leaving the place dry
A $2 000 bar bill
Showbiz picks up the tab
And we're on our way laughing
Laughing at what
Los Angeles
Eight days in
And our sense of irony's
Running pretty thin
All the friends we've made
