If Love Was a Plane

She's ninty-eight pounds, working down at the Dairy Queen

With an Ogalvie home perm and braces

And he's long haired, no job and just nineteen

They got a baby on the way they're off to the races.



In love, look at em' go

Now what in the world can go wrong

Don't tell them the odds, it's best they don't know

If Love was a plane, nobody'd get on.



At the Ivey at lunchtime in Beverly Hills

The paparazzis are gathered outside

'Cause an actor and actress are havin' lunch

And according to extra and entertainment tonight.



They're in love, now look at 'em go

Now what in the world can go wrong

Don't tell them the odds it's best they don't know

If love was a plane nobody'd get on.



Imagine now the pilot's voice on the intercom

Right before we leave the ground

Sayin' folks thanks for flyin' with us

But there's a six in ten chance we're goin' down.



But that's the strangest thing about this emotion

Even knowin' our chances are small

We line up at the gate with our tickets

Thinkin' somehow we're different, I mean after all.



We're in love. look at us go

Now what in the world can go wrong

To hell with the odds we'd rather not know

If love was a plane nobody'd get on.



Yeah, if love was a plane nobody'd get on.
