I am the Fighter My engine roars
Heaven is my address
But the One inside me to heaven soars
Thinking he is the Fighter, no less

In that battle I shot the Kraut down
Doing it all on a whim
But the One inside me Just sits around
God, am I sick of him.

In the last battle I got some holes
The mechanic done patched me clean
But the One inside me Reverses roles
Forcing me into a spin

The B-29 brings death on its’ wings
Death to the ground below
As if the bomb stabilizer Trembles and sings
"Peace me onto your home"

The Kraut is coming at me from behind
Escape is my only hope
But the One inside me Put me in a bind
Ramming the foe on the slope

What is he doing? We will detonate!
My death won’t be quick and now
Defying all limits Of speed and weight
I escape from the spin somehow

I am the lead, to hell with all that
Where is he, that flying Joe?
His siren wailed And then went flat
"Peace be onto your home"

The One inside me is all alone
And pretty much stuck up here
He deceived me again And into a spin
Straight from the loop and clear

He pulls the joystick, this is good-by
Ace pilot, who ever knew?
For now all I can do is comply
But this is the last time I do.

I won’t be obedient, not again!
I better be dead on the ground!
Can’t he hear my pulse? What is wrong with the man?
My gasoline blood ran out

There is only so much a Fighter can bear
My patience is wearing thin
But the One inside me Slumped in his chair
Never to rise again

He is dead as a door! I am free at last!
For that I have always prayed
But what is wrong? I am spinning fast!
A spin I cannot evade.

I regret not having done enough
Another the sky will roam
But still I can say That I know my stuff
"Peace be onto your home"
