She's ninety-eight pounds, working down at the Dairy Queen
With an Ogilvy home perm and braces
And he's long haired, no job and just nineteen
They got a baby on the way they're off to the races.
In love, look at em' go
Now what in the world can go wrong
Don't tell them the odds, it's best they don't know
If love was a plane, nobody'd get on.
At the Ivy at lunchtime in Beverly Hills
The paparazzi are gathered outside
'Cause an actor and actress are havin' lunch
And according to extra and entertainment tonight.
They're in love, now look at 'em go
Now what in the world can go wrong
Don't tell them the odds it's best they don't know
If love was a plane nobody'd get on.
Imagine now the pilot's voice on the intercom
Right before we leave the ground
Sayin' folks thanks for flyin' with us
But there's a six in ten chance we're goin' down.
But that's the strangest thing about this emotion
Even knowin' our chances are small
We line up at the gate with our tickets
Thinkin' somehow we're different, I mean after all.
We're in love. look at us go
Now what in the world can go wrong
To hell with the odds we'd rather not know
If love was a plane nobody'd get on.
Yeah, if love was a plane nobody'd get on
