38 Planes

On final approach, we're coming in runway two-two and I think
Where am I gonna park this thing?
There are planes lined up like sardines
And as far as I can see, there's cars lined up too
It looks like everybody in Newfoundland is here

(One plane, then another, and then another, and then another)
Is this on?
(And then thirteen planes) sorry, I'm new
This is Roger's TV channel nine (then another, and then another)
My name's Jeanna Smother and I'm reporting live from Gander Airport
Where the nineteenth plane has just touched down

I'm here with Bonnie Harris
On a normal day, we get a half dozen of flights, now
We already got three times that many landing in two hours
That's a lot of noise
You can smell the fuel
You can smell the exhaust

Jesus, that's a jumbo
There's gotta be 250 or 300 out there
That's a fairly large one, there's gotta be two hundred on her
And now I'm adding this up
We got 38 planes
We got two, three hundred people on the average
Holy shit
