Wherever We Are

Safe and sound
On the ground here in Newfoundland
We don't know much
Except for the BBC

Tell the kids I'm alright
Take them into the kitchen
Listen, I can't talk much
Can you do something for me?

Show them the map
That we used to put pins in
For each destination
That we flew together

Tell them I'm fine
Put a pin here
In Gander

Stuck here on a plane
And no one has a clue
And we're all going insane
'Cuz therе isn't squat to do

The captain starts apologizing
Says on behalf of the airlinе
I'm giving each and everyone some
Complimentary booze!

Open the airplane doors
Wave at all the cars
Hello to whoever you are
Wherever we are
Wherever we are
Wherever we are

Flight attendants bring out
All the mini-bottles of liquor
And delivered them to everyone
Soon everyone gets friendlier

I took a couple of pictures of the view there with my camera
We don't know where we are
But we knew we're getting hammered!

Open the airplane doors
Wave at all the locals
Surely there's something better to do than park
We open the airplane doors
Look at all the planes out there
There must be a convention, it's bizarre

Twenty-eight hours
God! Over an entire day
Running out of things to say
Wondering if there's someone
Going to clue us in
Tell us all what's happening
Because the sun is setting
And we're sitting in the dark
Wherever we are

Safe and sound
On the ground
Here in Newfoundland
