Goering's on the phone to Freiburg he says Willie's done quite a job

Hitler's on the phone from Berlin he says I'm gonna make you a star

My Captain von Odine heres your next patrol

A flight of English bombers across the canal

After twelve theyll all be here I think you know the job

 (play this staccato twice: )

(then staccato with the vocals)

They hung there dependant from the sky

Like some heavy metal fruit

These bombers are ripened ready 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 lost to our side

But theres no reward for failure but death so watch 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 twenty five bombers wait ripe

(again staccato with the vocals)

They hung there dependant from the sky

Like some heavy metal fruit

These bombers are ripened ready to tilt

Must these Englishmen live that I might die must they live that I might die

(Dmaj power chord x 2)

Me-262 prince of turbojet Junkers jumo 004

Blasts from clustered R4M quartets in my snout and

See these English planes go burn

Now you be my witness how red were the skies

When the fortresses flow for the very last time

It was dark over Westphalia in april of '45

Instrumental break

 Then play this x 7 :

 Then:

(again staccato with the vocals)

They hung there dependant from the sky

Like some heavy metal fruit

These bombers are ripened ready to tilt

Must these Englishmen live that I might die must they live that I might die

Must these Englishmen live that I might die Junkers jumo 004

(repeat many times)

Bombers at 12 o'clock high
