The Air Traffic Controller Loses It

The Air Traffic Controller Loses It

By Elton Camp

In a job where there's lots of stress
It is all too easy to create a mess

Bob was so exhausted he flipped out
And forgot what his job was all about

He sent the same message to every plane
No longer on the ground need you remain

Every single plane waiting out there 
Immediately soared up into the air

But that didn't work any too well
And the pilots in anger did yell

However, the airport was clear in a snap
The tired Air Traffic Controller took a nap
