One More Red Nightmare - King Crimson

Pan American nightmare

Ten thousand feet fun-fair

Convinced that I don’t care

Safe as houses I swear

I was just sitting musing

The virtues of cruising

When altitude dropping

My ears started popping

One more red nightmare

Sweat beginning to pour down

My neck as I turned round

I heard fortune shouting

Get off of this outing

A farewell swan song — see

You know how turbulence can be

The stewardess made me

But the captain forbade me

One more red nightmare

Reality stirred me

My angel had heard me

The prayer had been answered

A reprieve had been granted

The dream was now broken

Though rudely awoken

Really safe and sound

Asleep on the Greyhound

One more red nightmare
