Yes, this has pretty much blown over, but I put up an MP3 at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/rachelglassberg

Lyrics:

Steven was a simple man
Workin' on a plane
But his working conditions
Were driving him insane

Oh it really was a nightmare
on each and every flight, there
were passengers who didn't know their place
But Steven drew the line
On that fateful August 9
When someone's luggage hit him in the face

See you later, Steven Slater
Didn't need no escalator
Just slid right out that airplane door and ran
See you later, Steven Slater
You're a first-class hellraiser
A flight attendant and a hero of the working man

Now Steven was a patient guy
But this he couldn't stand
No apology was coming
So he took things in his hands

He jumped onto the intercom
And shouted right out loud
Bout all the world's injustices
To the uncaring crowd

And before he pulled the chute, he
took some ill-gotten booty
A couple beers to drink on the way down
He knew he'd said his piece
By the time they called police
He was packed and on his way out of town

See you later, Steven Slater
Didn't need no escalator
Just slid right out that airplane door and ran
See you later, Steven Slater
You're a first-class hellraiser
A flight attendant and a hero of the working man

So when the world's oppressing you
And you can't take no more
Just remember Steven Slater
and slide right out that door
