about

I never thought you'd be my hero...

lyrics

Commander Codfish -

Flying high in the clear blue sky
Commander Codfish
With a sparkle in your eye
I never thought you’d be my hero

Your feats of valour signify
The reasons for the deep respect
Your squadron has for you

And I wish I was back in your time
For just a day or two
In a Sopwith Camel F2-1
Wing to wing with you
Then we’d soar above the mighty clouds
And seek the enemy
Then return to base
For a cup of good old British tea ....

We’d walk around our faithful planes
And note the bullet holes
That missed the vital working parts
And spared our mortal souls
Then we’d talk about the days
Before the Great War came
When men were free
And didn’t have to die shot down in flames

So let’s drink a toast to the living
And count our blessings too
Wing Commander Codfish
I’m proud to stand by you
And for the record I must say
This has been my finest day
To chat and reminisce your times
And count your victories
Yet I’m a man of peace my friend
I see no sense in war
But to fight for King and country
Is a noble thing I’m sure
So now the time has come to part
I’ll take these memories
God bless you in these troubled times
Climb in your plane
Take to the skies
And shine
