SkyMall Songtext
von Jonathan Coulton

O′Hare is nice this time of year
I check my bags and find my seat
And buy a beer and settle in

Such is my life here on the road
Now, my seat back is up
Tray table stowed and there's nothing to do
I gotta get myself through

So, I am shopping in SkyMall, that five-mile-high mall
That always has just what I need
When I get to the gate and remember too late
I should have brought something to read
I′m okay, 'cause I know that I'm gonna shop SkyMall

I bought a pair of bonsai trees
I bought a big fake rock
Where I can hide my keys from everyone

And I imagine what all my friends would say
To see this lovable Santa dance
And sway to my favorite songs
My favorite holiday songs


And I am shopping in SkyMall, that five-mile-high mall
That always has just what I need
When I get to the gate and remember too late
I should have brought something to read
I′m okay, ′cause I know that I'm gonna shop SkyMall

In Cleveland, I bought a replica
Of the sword that was broken
And then somewhere above Detroit
Some Successories that say "Lead with Vision"

I love you best when I′m away
And while I'm out here
I look forward to the day when I come home

′Cause there's something special waiting there
It′s a whimsical statue of a bear
That holds a bottle of wine
But please don't touch it, it's mine

Because I bought it in SkyMall, that five-mile-high mall
That always has just what I need
When I get to the gate and remember too late
I should have brought something to read
It′s okay, ′cause I know that I'm gonna shop SkyMall

′Cause I know that I'm gonna shop SkyMall
