Itazuke Tower - Oscar Brand

Itazuke Tower this is AirForce 801

I'm turning on the downwind leg my prop is over-run

My coolant's overheated the gauge says 121

You'd better get the crash crew out and get them on the run

Listen AirForce 801 this is Itazuke Tower

I cannot call the crash crew out this is their coffee hour

You're not cleared in the pattern now that is plain to see

So take it once around again you're not a VIP

Itazuke Tower this is AirForce 801

I'm turning on my final I'm running on one lung

I gotta land this Mustang no matter what you say

I'm gonna get my charts spread up before that judgement day

Now listen AirForce 801 this is Itazuke Tower

We'd like to let you in right now but we haven't got the power

We'll send a note through channels and wait for the reply

Until we get permisson back just chase around the sky

Itazuke Tower this is AirForce 801

I'm up in Pilot's heaven and my flying days are done

I'm sorry that I blew up I couldn't make the grade

I guess I should have waited 'til the landing was oked
