Wheels rolling
People pushing
Noises proving
How much they're rushing
Check in
Check
Tick the box
Check there's nothing
You've forgot
Stand in line
Don't jump in
Wait until it all begins
Ignore those two
They've jumped ahead
They've no idea
Ignoring the sign you read
Tickets, passport
A big smile too
Welcome aboard
How are you?
Some are grumpy
Some excited
One old lady
She looks frightened
Hop on board
Enjoy the flight
Sleep all day
Pretend it's night
Restless people
Up and down
Stretching legs
Eyebrows frown
How many movies
Can you watch?
Huge eyeballs
I've watched the lot
Bumpy landing
On the ground
Can't stand up yet
Must wait for the funny sound
Rushing to the lockers
Head out of the plane
I've done this before
I'm home again
Uniforms pass
The crew go by
Fast pass exit
While luggage passes by
Mine is last
Makes me wait
No one's in the hall
It's a feeling that I hate
Customs is clear
I push my trolley through
Another long haul
And I'm back to you
