OCEANIC GETS YOU LOST
(TTTO "UNITED BREAKS GUITARS" BY DAVE CARROLL)
(TTTO "UNITED BREAKS GUITARS" BY DAVE CARROLL)
I flew on Oceanic on a non-stop flight from Sidney
The plane rolled off the tarmac then it lifted gently to a cloudless sky---
The guy who sat beside kept on calling me his "Brotha"--he looked really damned familiar to my eyes...
The flight was uneventful--unless you count that junkie
He was choking on a condom filled with heroin or maybe crack cocaine--
I was munching on my peanuts when the plane began to tremble
Then the air was filled with screams of fear and pain...
(chorus)
Oceanic---we're not where we should be
Oceanic---don't look like L.A. to me
The fusillage is droppin'--this nightmare isn't stoppin'
I should have flown on Quantas Air for half the cost....
Oceanic gets you LOST!
I awoke to mass confusion on a pile of broken luggage
Underneath a guy named Hurley whom I quickly asked to please get off my back
There's a sobbing chick who's pregnant--someone's cussing in Korean
And I heard last night some polar bears attacked
The bald guy left his wheelchair, now he's waving a machete
Says the Island has a Power--that that Power will demand a sacrifice....
And from a distant hillside---the Others are observing
And it's clear they plan to put us all on ice....
(CHORUS)
I was flyin' to Los Angeles to spend a week's vacation
I'm textin' Travelocity--the phone says "Out Of Service"
Ben Linus say if I have got a problem, just take it up with Jacob
I don't think He will listen--my name's not on his Wall.....
Oceanic Got Me Lost!
(CHORUS)
(and here's the original so you can sing along...)

TERI: I say we stick with Locke
LINDA: You stick with Locke—I’m headin’ down the hatch with Desmond
TERI: You think we can believe Ben about getting off this rock?
LINDA: No way!
He’s a man—without conviction
He’s a man—who doesn’t know
How to sell—his contradictions
He turns the wheel—the island goes!
TOGETHER:
Dharma-dharma-dharma-dharma
Dharma Chameleon
He comes and goes—he comes and goes—
Livin’ with Initiative can drive you insane, that’s true—
He’s Number Two—for Hurley too!
(CHORUS)
