Airport Hotel

I caught the bus the other day I thought I'd go on a holiday The bus arrived promptly at nine The luggage loaded in record time I was very impressed at the service There was no need to feel nervous That I’d miss my connecting flight And have to stay an extra night… ….in an airport hotel …. An in-between zombie zone You’re not on holiday and not at home Theres no time left to unpack Your body clock is out of whack Down rabbit warren corridors The ancient air conditioning roars People come and go all hours Boiling jugs and running showers You’ve booked an early wakeup call But you get no bloody sleep at all And stagger out to catch your flight…. Completely stuffed and looking sh*te
