Seventeen Hours
Seventeen hours, locked in a plane
Rubbish movies, mangling my brain
Can't stay awake, but can't sleep
Shallow thoughts, tensions deep
Not sure if it's early or late
Body clock out can't concentrate
Too much food at the wrong time
Force it down with a glass of wine
Dragon in the sky
Growling as the hours crawl by
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Try to read, but bored by the book
Scroll through films, that aren't worth a look
Listen to music, try to relax
Songs from my iPhone, favourite tracks
Neck getting stiff, turn left and right
Legs aching, everything tight
Time passes slowly, restless rest
Longing for comfort, depressed
Dragon in the sky
Growling as the hours crawl by
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Cabin crew, fake smiles
Trolleys of drinks, clog up the isles
Turbulence, when you want to get up
Seatbelt signs on, feeling locked up
Walk up and down, queue for a pee
Some in there for hours, never free
Torture now, but the future is black
Seventeen hours more to get back
Dragon in the sky
Growling as the hours crawl by
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Rubbish movies, mangling my brain
Can't stay awake, but can't sleep
Shallow thoughts, tensions deep
Not sure if it's early or late
Body clock out can't concentrate
Too much food at the wrong time
Force it down with a glass of wine
Dragon in the sky
Growling as the hours crawl by
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Try to read, but bored by the book
Scroll through films, that aren't worth a look
Listen to music, try to relax
Songs from my iPhone, favourite tracks
Neck getting stiff, turn left and right
Legs aching, everything tight
Time passes slowly, restless rest
Longing for comfort, depressed
Dragon in the sky
Growling as the hours crawl by
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Cabin crew, fake smiles
Trolleys of drinks, clog up the isles
Turbulence, when you want to get up
Seatbelt signs on, feeling locked up
Walk up and down, queue for a pee
Some in there for hours, never free
Torture now, but the future is black
Seventeen hours more to get back
Dragon in the sky
Growling as the hours crawl by
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
Seventeen hours, seventeen hours, seventeen hours
