East Side Table

[Verse 1] Tea in thin cups Biscuits on a plate Thomas and Claire Playing work all day The glances said enough The touch said more He stopped his usual Easy little war I sat there smiling Like I didn't know How the room kept moving Under their show [Pre-Chorus] He asked me Brazil Like it was polite I shook my head I just got in tonight No extra miles No fast goodbye I ain't crossing oceans For a courtesy line [Chorus] Not my flight, not today I just got here, I'm staying Not my flight, not today Let the plans keep changing Not my flight, not today (I'm staying) Not my flight, not today (I'm staying) [Verse 2] We talked AI And the security bite Ticket lines, support lines Late-night load-up time How to help the crowd Without a lie How to catch the wrong turn Before it flies Sylvia walked in Before five o'clock Side-eye for the boom And the copycat talk Plagiarism, water Carbon in the drain I nodded with her That part felt plain [Pre-Chorus] Then São Paulo came up Then trains, then pie Cookie recipes And Manhattan drive Who was coming back When Gabi would land The room kept circling Like a loose hand [Chorus] Not my flight, not today I just got here, I'm staying Not my flight, not today Let the plans keep changing Not my flight, not today (I'm staying) Not my flight, not today (I'm staying) [Bridge] Then the elevator Opened up wide Gabi on the landing Bags at her side Thomas stepped up quick Claire took the line I watched that little dance One more time Then I was stuck Between Sylvia and Gabi So I said Thursday Come clubbing with me Diana might come Mariain too Bring Susan, bring the noise Make it all come through [Chorus] Not my flight, not today I just got here, I'm staying Not my flight, not today Let the plans keep changing Not my flight, not today (I'm staying) Not my flight, not today (I'm staying) [Outro] East Upper Side Small room, big game Everybody acting Like they know the name I saw the whole thing Clear as the hall And I got my girls That was all
