I Was A Kamikaze Pilot

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
'Cos 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 'cos 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. 

Cherry blossoms falling down.
