    And there we were at 40,000 feet upside down,
    out of airspeed and ideas.
    Then the pilot jumps out with the only parachute.
    He left me with a just a sewing needle and a silk worm...
    Boy, we sure were a busy pair!
    How come it is always too something... Too hot, too cold, too soon, too late, too much, too little, too deep, too shallow, but always "too" something.
