Ezra Furman & The Harpoons - Halloween Snow lyrics

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
