Intro: Verse Outside the taxi window On the way to catch my flight I noticed snowflakes playing In the ever failing light When you dropped me at departures It was really coming down Deep and crisp and even And it settled on the ground It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport All the planes are grounded And the fog is rolling in It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport this year Doors are locked and bolted Let the festivities begin The terminal was seething Without much Christmas cheer So I found an empty closet And bedded down in there When I woke much later I was really quite alone Checkin' was deserted Everyone had gone It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport I took a set of X rays and they came out very well It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport this year Now I'm doing Santa's sleigh ride on the baggage carousel It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport I should be at the table with all my kith and kin It looks like Christmas, Christmas at the airport this year Don't save me any turkey I found a burger in a bin
