Nick Lowe - Christmas at the Airport lyrics

[female voice over Public Address speakers]: Pa**engers are reminded to keep personal items and luggage with them at all times. Any unattended luggage in the terminal building will be removed by security …… and may be destroyed. [Vocal]: Outside, the taxi window On the way to catch my flight I notice snowflakes playing In the everfading light When he dropped me at departures It was really coming down Deep and crisp and evil It settled on the ground It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport All the planes are grounded And the fog is rolling in It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport this year Doors are locked and bolted Let the festivities begin! [airport terminal background sounds interlude] The terminal was seething Without much Christmas cheer So I found an empty closet And bedded down in there When I woke much later I was quite alone Check-in was deserted Everyone had gone It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport I took a set of x-rays They came out rather well It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport this year I'm doing Santa's sleighride On the baggage carousel [female voice over public address speakers] Pa**engers are advised that oversized items such as buggy ……. wheelchairs …. are to be found in the [tram?] which is situated opposite carousel eight Instrumental interlude It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport I should be at the table With all my kith and kin It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport this year Don't save me any turkey I found a burger in a bin
