Bohemian UAE Rhapsody

Just finished reading this on the ME forum. It's a must read, or should I say sing. The EK FO Rhapsody which is some distance down the thread is also great.

Do we have anyone here with the same level of wit?

To be sung to the tune of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, of course...

Is this an airline, industrial piracy
Caught in Dakota's, no escape from Cathay city…
Open your eyes, look up through the lies and see…

I’m just an FO, need lots of sympathy
It was so easy come, hard to go,
when you’re just a pax FO
Any way ERAS goes,
Doesn’t really matter… to me… to meee…

Mama… wish I were dead….
Aimed for getting perfect fives,
Blew my V1 cut instead,
Senior, in my old airline,
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away…

Mamaaa… ooooohhhhh,
Didn’t really mean to apply,
With no upgrade I’ll wallow in my sorrow,
Put me down, put me down
Nothing really matters…

Too late, last MTR’s gone,
We’ll have another wine,
down in Wanchai would be fine,
Goodbye everybody, I’ve got to run,
Although one last shout at Slasher’s would be fun,
Mamaaa… oooohhhhhhhhhh,
I don’t wanna fly, I sometimes wish I’d never applied at all….

(Brian May solo)

I see the little silhouetto of a one,
Scaramouche, scaramouche, will you do the command-o
Crew control like lightning, very very frightening, me!
Galileo (Galileo) Galileo (Galileo) Galileo Figaro-mannificooo
I’m just an FO, nobody loves me
But it’s all legal, are you refusing duty?
Spare him from star-chamber monstruosity,

Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
SORRY-CANNOT, we will not let you go (let him go)
SORRY-CANNOT, we will not let you go (let him go)
SORRY-CANNOT, we will not let you go (let me go)
Will not let you go (let me go) will not let you go (let me go)
Let me goooooo, no no no no no

Oh mama mia mama mia (mama mia let me go),
Age sixty-five, Dragonair-Oasis screwing me, screwing me, screwing meeeee…

So you think you can call me to fly on my G…
So you think that I’ll rot in the right seat for free?
Oh, Swire, situation so dire,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right out of here…

(Oh yeah, oh yeah)

Nothing really matters, anyone can see,
Nothing really matters,
I’ll just take a dive off… the IFC…

Brilliant! Perhaps Tony T will add it to his band's repertoire. Oh sorry - they already did!

Hey Doggie,

Excellent. I didn't think it could be done, and so fast!
