If Love Was a Plane

She's 98 lbs. workin' down at the Dairy Queen
With an Oval V home perm and braces
And he's long haired, no job and just 19
They've got a baby on the way and
They're off to the races

In love look at 'em go
Now what in the world could go wrong?
Don't tell them the odds
Its best they don't know
If love was a plane, nobody'd get on

At the ivy at lunchtime in Beverly Hills
The paparazzi are gathered outside
'Cause an actor and an actress are havin' lunch
And according to Extra and Entertainment Tonight

They're in love look at 'em go
Now what in the world could 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 pilots voice on the intercom
Right before we leave the ground
Saying folks thanks for flying with us
But there's a six in ten chance we're goin' down

But that's the strangest thing about this emotion
Even knowing our chances are small
We line up at the gate with our tickets
Thinking somehow we're different
I mean after all

We're in love look at us go
Now what in the world could go wrong?
To hell with the odds we'd rather not know
If love was a plane, nobody'd get on
Ya, if love was a plane nobody'd get on
