gonna go out

to the arrivals gate at the airport

and sit there all day

watch people reuniting

public affection is so exciting

it even makes airports ok

watching children run

with their arms outstretched

just to throw those arms

around their grandpas' necks

watching lovers plant kisses

old men to their misses

at the arrivals gate

watching a mother

with a mother's smile

don't tell me to move

i just wanna sit here for a while

i have determined

it's a sure cure for cancer

watching excitment turn family

dogs into dancers

at the arrivals gate

i got me a white bread sandwich

with some shredded lettuce

and i got me a ringside view

for my quaint little fetish

i just wanna drain my little pink heart

of all its malice

and kick back for the afternoon

in this flourescent palace

everybody's in a hurry

here in purgatory

except for me

i'm where i need to be

at the arrivals gate
