Supersonic Transport
Supersonic Transport, New York to LA
You could make a round trip
Three times a day
Fly across the country
In three hours time
That means you get there when you left here
Getting faster all the time
Will the folks down on the ground
Approve of the sound
High over the Great Plains
Sonic Boom will shake their brains
Taxi down the runway
Hear the wheels going up
If you see the wings flap
Don't worry, that's what holds the plane up
Fly across the country
In three hours time
That means you get there when you left here
Getting faster all the time
Will the folks down on the ground
Approve of the sound
Cruising over Kansas
Got to shake their pots and panses
You tell me that it's wasteful
Ecologically unsound
Yeah but what the hell do you know
You're stuck down on the ground
It costs a lot of money
But that's alright
You know my baby's back in Boston
I want to sleep with her tonight.
Will the folks down on the ground
Approve of the sound.
Way out on the ocean
Yeah it makes a big commotion
