Die Harder (Die Hard 2. Still not the movie)

Lyrics

​(Verse 1)
Snow is falling fast on the tarmac lines
Just a holiday flight, everything should be fine
But the radar goes dark and the towers lose grip
While a rogue Colonel’s taking a lethal trip
John’s waiting at the gate for Holly to land
But the phone lines are cut by a cold-blooded hand
He’s seeing the signs, he’s smelling the plot
While the local police say he’s losing the pot.
​(Chorus)
Back in the vents, crawling through the grime
Running out of luck, running out of time
He’s looking at the dust, looking at the ice
Yelling, “How can the same shit happen to the same guy twice?”
He’s the wrong man, in the wrong place
With a gritty grin on his tired face.
​(Verse 2)
The sky is a graveyard of circling planes
Low on the fuel and feeling the strains
The terrorists are lurking in the church in the trees
Bringing the capital down to its knees
He’s jumping on the wing of a moving jet
A Christmas Eve gamble, a dangerous bet
The luggage is flying, the engines are loud
He’s a one-man army in a winter cloud.
​(Bridge)
Check the ejection seat, pull the red cord
He’s firing the rounds, he’s drawing the sword
The grenades are live in the cockpit’s glow
And there’s nowhere for the bad guys left to go.
​(Verse 3)
He’s got the lighter out, he’s popping the cap
Tracing the fuel like a fiery map
One spark in the snow, one trail of the flame
They’re gonna remember the McClane name
The runway’s a beacon, the landing is clear
He’s survived the worst of the holiday fear.
​(Chorus)
Back in the vents, crawling through the grime
Running out of luck, running out of time
He’s looking at the dust, looking at the ice
Yelling, “How can the same shit happen to the same guy twice?”
He’s the wrong man, in the wrong place
With a gritty grin on his tired face.
​(Outro)
Merry Christmas, John.
Just another day at the airport...
Same guy, same luck.
See you in New York.
