about

Jets fly best when the controls work. Sometimes, jet engines fly apart and cut hydraulic lines.

The DC-10 got a lot of bad publicity for crappy airlines and crappy mechanics and crappy jet engine parts forged by crappy foundries. Kind of unfair, isn't it?

lyrics

The captain has some dreadful news
The pilots haven't got control
It seems an engine did explode
The hydraulic lines have been cut

We've got a snowball's chance in hell

The engines are our only hope
Asymmetrical thrust to turn
The pilots refuse to give up
This jet might land safe after all

We've got a snowball's chance in hell

We're coming in hot and high
Best we can do without hydraulics
A wing and a prayer won't cut it today
As we barrel down the glideslope
Let's hope we hit the runway
Without crashing into that corn field
Hours of boredom punctuated
By moments of sheer terror

We seem to be on target now
We're getting low, the end is near
The pilots have us lined up straight
The gust was just a twist of fate
