There's a mule on the airplane sitting next to you
You'd know her name was Consuelo if you'd been introduced

She's departures and destinations and silence on the way

There's a mule on the airplane staring straight ahead
Not much for conversation, just staring straight ahead
Getting used to the sad sensation of feeling out of place
