E-coli in Airplane Coffee

In the 60’s when PSA flight attendants ruled the fantasy air

With their hot attire and sexual pleasing flair

The hint of “coffee, tea or me” with an alluring wink

Flying was easy, cheap and a great way to LA and the Bay Area link

Today with TSA hassles, overbooking, vanishing leg room

And with no food a growing gloom

Higher fares, nickel and dime baggage and carry on fees

Hard to find anyone who would if truthful that would flying is fun agree

Now we find a new scandal by flight attendants secretly revealed

Coffee and tea made with water from the toilet bowls with ecoli teeming is the secret concealed

Sadly true not something you would wake up and think it was only a nightmare

Before the cramps and diarrheas you would have to bear

If you need a fix of caffeine order no coffee or tea only  a diet Coke

Caffeine loaded and a prescription of anti-biotics you will not need to invoke.
