My Captain von Odine heres your ne xt patrol
A flight of English bombers acro ss the canal
After twelve theyll all be here I thin k you know the job

They hung there dependant from the sky
Like some heavy metal frui t
These bombers are ripened rea dy to tilt
Must these Englishmen live that I might die must they live that I might die
(Dmaj power chord x 2)
In a G-load disaster from the rate of climb
sometimes Id faint and be lo st to our side
But theres no reward for failure but death so wat ch me in the mirror
Keep in the glidepath
Get me through these radars no I cannot fail not when silver slugs are
eager to feed
I cannot fail no not now when t wenty five bombers wait ripe
(again staccato with the vocals)
They hung there dependant from the sky
Like some heavy metal frui t
These bombers are ripened rea dy to tilt
Must these Englishmen live that I might die must they live that I might die
(Dmaj power chord x 2)
