Texty: Meryn Cadell. Flight Attendant.

Please extinguish all cigarettes and
ensure that your seatbacks and trays are in the upright and locked position.
I want to be a flight attendant; I can save you all.
Look to me for your instructions when the plane begins to fall.
Once I wanted to be a nun til I found out what it takes from you
Now I?ve settled on flight attendant, and I know my heart is true.
I?ll never want to touch down, never want to see the ground
I?ll never get lonely, cause I?ll always fly away.
I want to point out exits in a calm assuring way.
Being a nun is such a selfish thing when
you think of the comfort you can bring each day as a flight attendant.
You?ll all be like children to me, and my affection will be real
(For the duration of the flight, anyway ?
here?s your blanket, here?s your meal)
And when the flight I bid you fond adieu...
Then three hundred other people get on board,
and my affection starts anew!
I?ll fly out every day knowing death may take this flight
I?ll be so strong and ready, pushing open the emergency doors
and pushing you out, down the inflatable slide, into the water,
each of you holding on
to your seat cushion as your personal flotation device....
And I will be the last to leave the plane.
When even the pilot?s safe,
I?ll push off and swim away as the plane bursts into flames.
And my knotted scarf will stay in place,
and the waves will lap my strong face
and I will have saved you all, oh I want to be a flight attendant.
I want to be the one to pull your mask down in case of fire.
I want to fly forever, and my arms will never tire
