Don’t you love how the airlines are charging you for everything lately? I mean really… now they are trying to charge you an extra fee for the exact same seat just because it’s a little closer to the front. Pretty soon they are going to start charging not to seat you by someone who is above average in size, or someone without wicked body odor. It’s their business model after all. Find the crappiest part of flying on the airlines, and then charge you more so you don’t have to deal with it. It’s really kind of pathetic / funny when you think about it, I mean, I can come up with something better than what they are doing, maybe they will let me be CEO of one of them for a year. That would be a good time…..but I digress.

Here’s the tune.

Center Seat

(Parody of John Fogerty’s Centerfield)

Well get online, and book your ride you have to travel by air
You’re off again, gotta do some work in the field
Standing in line by a broken kiosk, is a blonde haired handsome man
Anyone can understand the way I feel.

Put me in coach, I ain’t gonna pay today
Put me in coach, I’ll never pay to upgrade
Look at me, I can sit, Center Seat

Well I spent some time in a DC-9, in an aisle seat by the lav
You know I took some lumps when the beverage cart would come out
So say hey Wilbur, and Orville too, they’ve sabotaged your dream
They’re rippin’ us for hundreds more ’cause they can’t compete

Put me in coach, I ain’t gonna pay today
Put me in coach, I’ll never pay to upgrade
Look at me, I can sit, Center Seat

You think they’ll ever get it?
I doubt it!

Got a beat up jet, a tired underpaid crew, and delays for an hour or two
You know I think it’s time they let this plane go fly
Look how we’re all uncomfortable it’s not worth the premium
Trapped on board you can kiss our patience goodbye.

Put me in coach, I ain’t gonna pay today
Put me in coach, I’ll never pay to upgrade
Look at me, I can sit, Center Seat

Put me in coach, I ain’t gonna pay today
Put me in coach, I’ll never pay to upgrade
Look at me, I can sit, Center Seat
