I Want To Takeoff From A Carrier Lyrics

I wanna take off from a carrier some day before I die
Strap that viper to a catapult and watch that sucker fly
Two hundred knots in under two seconds that's my kind of fun
I'll do a barrel roll right after take off just like in top gun

But I don't wanna land
Allow me to explain and you'll understand
'Cause it ain't so much the landing hell why would I care
You never have a crosswind and you never have to flare
You got four fuckin' wires well how could you miss
I can't think of anything that's easier than this

But once you're on the deck my friend you're never the same again
'Cause you're stuck on a boat in the middle of nowhere with five thousand other men

Join the navy
Yeah I don't think so
Living on a boat
Yeah I don't think so
Hot bunking
Yeah I don't think so
Doing night traps
Fuck that I don't think so

Sure I thought about the navy but decided to pass
I love my five star hotels and per diem out the ass
I do all of my fighting well within the shore
Cable tv's and cappuccinos that's the way that you fight a war
This spoiled life it can grow old
When the coffee ain't fresh the sheets ain't soft and the beer is only somewhat cold
