“Hey! Hey!”

“Check our new ride.
The boarding door’s closed, now we’re feeling real fly.
Me and my crew is pumped up!”

“That’s right!”

“Gonna hit up Maui ‘fore the end of the night.”

“Suit up! It’s a black tie event!
It’s Crystal Prep’s Spring Dance for this charter request.
We showin’ up the yacht with extravagance.”

“Captain Max on deck,
for the safety announce-ment.”

“It’s high time for departure,
‘fore a storm system gets larger.
Let’s get down to Kahului without further delay.
We’ve got 5.5 to 6 hours up in the air.
It’s windy and it’s raining, though.”

“Oh, how unfair!”

“Hey, hey, hey. Seatbelts on.
Latch, buckle and tighten it strong. If the,
sign is off, please, keep ‘em on,
in case the air gets rough.

Eight, eight, there’re 8 exit doors.
2 front, 2 rear, and overwing: 4. Please,
find the closest, even though it,
may not be in front.”

“Oh no!”

“It’s unlikely and it’s daft,
but, in the case that we become a raft,
place the vest o’er shoulders and tighten the strap.
Open up the exit door, pull down on the tabs.”

“Hey!”

“If the pressures change,
you should know that we will need to oxygenate.
Pull down on the mask, baggie won’t inflate.
Place over your nose and mouth, and respirate!”

“If you need to use the bathroom,
there are 3 onboard for all ya.
1 upfront, 2 behind.”

“Can I smoke?”

“You’re denied!”

“There’s no smoking allowed.
Tampering’s disallowed.
If you’re caught in it, you’re in for it!
Gone With The Wind!”

“Bye!”

“Please do review the safety card.
The instructions aren’t that hard. How to,
operate the, exit doors, the life rafts and the slides.

And if the cabin goes dark,
yellow strips will light up the floor. To,
Show the way, to, safely e-
-vacuate the aircraft.

The law states, (federal law dictates),
that you must,
obey all my (compliance with) commands.
And all the, (signs up above), posted placards (and below).
And all the lighted signs (and whatever he says).”

“Okay, I think that is all.
Questions, comments, concerns at all? Please,
let me know, my, name is Max, well, it’s Split Scimitar!”

“Hey, hey, we’ll be on our way,
heading down to Maui today, so,
please sit back and, relax-ate,
‘cause CP’s jetting off!”
