Berlin To New York, 1937 Lyrics by Gas Huffer

The Rest of Us

2002

He folds up his socks and his underwear
Puts them in the suitcase with so much care
Closes up the latch with a final click
Turns his back and walks before the clock can tick
And she is sitting there crying through her long, brown hair
Now suddenly, she’s standing, kicking back her chair
She’s screaming, “Captain, turn your airship ‘round!
Reverse the motion of the ground!
Captain, turn your airship ‘round!”
Berlin to New York, 1937
Hydrogen-inflated and aloft in heaven
Everybody drinking, so unaware
Suddenly, he thinks about her long, brown hair
And now, he’s running down the aisle to the wheelhouse door
Pounding and a-pounding ‘till his knuckles are sore
He’s screaming, “Captain, turn this airship ‘round!
Reverse the motion of the ground!
Captain, turn this airship ‘round!”
