I'm gonna take you for a ride
on a big jet plane when we're done
with all this. With wings as
big as dinosaurs, and it's
gonna fly so fast you
won't believe it!
Pretzels? No, no no,
there will be pizza and
ice cream on this flight.
All the soda you can drink.
Oh man, we're going to have
a blast, buddy. Close your eyes.
Can't you see it? Imagine, you
and me, flying that big ol' plane.
Don't tell your mother, but I talked
to the pilot, he said he would even
let you fly it! Isn't that something, buddy?
Isn't that something. Go ahead, close your
eyes, think about pizza and ice cream, and
fast big huge jet planes, and soda, and --there you go,
nice and tight-- and how fast we're gonna fly,
and we're gonna do flips and dips it's gonna be the
best time ever. Keep 'em closed, buddy, keep 'em
closed and keep smiling, I'll be right here
the whole time, buddy, I'll be
right here waiting when you wake up.
Just know daddy loves you, so much.
Don't ever forget that.
