Tailgunner

Let me tell you about the hell I was in
If I can find out where to begin
It's been a while, I thought it gone
Dispelled it all when the war was won
Boldhearted I heed the call
Uncle Sam need more men to fall
21, fresh to all the world
Arrogant as hell unfurled

With no practice we're in the skies
Turret gunner on a crew of nine
Break a will, stare at the reapers face
When he submits I'll rest my case
Rendezvous, we break a nervous sweat
As we silently await death
Feel the sting, the hit and run
As I desperately fire my gun

So long my sweet thing
I'm at war and I can't win
Headstrong and can't be wrong
It ain't over till the fat lady sings

We have got to plant this vermin now
Let's just bomb the krauts and get the fuck out

Survive the wave and scout for more
A kill for country, one for the core
A nazi's got me on his gun
But we can't break from this bombrun
Bleeding now with guns ablaze
My fingers frozen, my mind's a maze
See him now, the Messerschmidt dive
From an angle blow us from the sky

So long my sweet thing
I'm at war and I can't win
Headstrong and can't be wrong
It ain't over till the fat lady sings

We have got to plant this vermin now
Let's just bomb the krauts and get the fuck out
