The birds fly a lot better than we do
See how they wheel and bank and fly (perfect)
And all in one
Wings, body, tail
All in one

Someday I'm going to build a plane just like a bird

It isn't exactly a bird I'm creating, is it?
At least a curious odd bird
A bird that breathes fire and spits out death and destruction
A spitfire bird

A spitfire bird

Faster, always faster
What a strange looking machine
Can't see a spit in the air without getting a kick out of it
Why it is like a bird
A spitfire bird

A spitfire bird

It is tiring always stretching out
for something that's just out of reach
But I'll get it
After all what I want isn't as easy as all that

It's gotta do 400 miles an hour
Turn on a sixpence
Climb ten thousand feet in a few minutes
Dive at 500 without the wings coming off
Carry eight machine guns

Hello, Hunter leader, Hunter leader
Bandits approaching Beachy
from Southeast angels one to five, over
Bandits are now about three to four miles south of Beachy
You should see them any minute, they're now south of you

Hello, Hunter leader, Hunter leader
Flight plan control can you see them?
Can you see them?
