The Arrivals Gate — текст песни (Ani Difranco)

Gonna go out

To the arrivals gate at the airport

And sit there all day

Watch people reuniting

Public affection so exciting

It even makes airports ok

Watching children run

With their arms outstretched

Just to throw those arms

Around their grandpas neck

Watching lovers plant kisses

Old men to their misses

At their arrivals gate



Watching a mother

With a mothers smile

Dont tell me to move

I just wanna sit here for a while

I have determined

Its a sure cure for cancer

Watching excitement turn family dogs

Into dancers

At the arrivals gate



I got me a white bread sandwich

With some shredded lettuce

And I go tme a ringside view

For my quaint little fetish



I just wanna drain my pink little heart

Of all its malice

And kick back for the afternoon

In this fluorescent palace



Everybodys in a hurry

Here in purgatory

Except for me

Im where I need to be



At the arrivals gate
