Help Me Out, Jet Blue
For Nico Rico
I been thinkin’
And I’m convinced there’s somethin’ special here.
What can I do?
He’s twenty-five hundred miles away.
Not for nothin’,
If he were here,
I know he’d never wanna leave.
I wish and wait.
I hope and pray.
Won’t someone please
Get him out here today!Help me out, Jet Blue!
There’s a man I got ta see!
He’s out in Timbuktu,
And I need you
To bring ‘im on back to me!Been online searchin’
Cuz I’m convinced I’ll find that special fare.
It’s not like I’m broke,
But maybe I’m ‘bout an inch away.
How ‘bout a red-eye?
Stop over twice?
We’ll take whatever we can find.
He won’t check bags.
You can wave that fee,
Cuz once he’s here,
He won’t wear nothin’ but me!!Help me out, Jet Blue!
There’s a man I got ta see!
He’s out in Timbuktu,
And I need you
To bring ‘im on back to me!Get his seat back up.
Get his tray in place.
Get his carry-on up in the overhead bin.
Shut his cell phone down.
Shut that cock pit door.
Take off,
And let that awful in-flight movie begin!I’ll scream and shout, Jet Blue!
Please, I am begging you,
‘Cuz this boy is overdue!Help me out, Jet Blue!
There’s a man I got ta see!
He’s out in Timbuktu,
Or Kathmandu,
Or Kalamazoo…C’mon, c’mon help me out, Jet Blue!
There’s a man I got ta see!
He’s out in Timbuktu,
And I need you
To bring ‘im on back…Bring ‘im on back to me.
Bring ‘im on back to me.
Reunite us,
With your airbus.Bring ‘im on back to me.
Leave a tire track
On the tarmac.Bring ‘im on back to me.
Seat his sweet ass
Up in first class!Help me out, Jet blue!
Bring ‘im on back to me!
