I was a, was a kamikaze pilot
They gave me a plane, I couldn't fly it home
Taught how to take off, I don't know how to land
They say it doesn't matter and I just cannot understand
I was a kamikaze pilot
They gave me a plane, I couldn't fly it home
Left my happy homeland in a zero
I got engine trouble so I couldn't be a hero
(Do you think I care?)
Now I'll keep my two feet on the ground
'Cause when you're in the clouds
Everybody tries to shoot you down
I was a kamikaze pilot
They gave me a plane, I couldn't fly it home
On an island there ain't too much to do
Look after number one 'cause I think I can see
Lee Marvin chasin' after you
I was a kamikaze pilot
They gave me a plane, I couldn't fly it home
