My Dad Was In The Air Lyrics - Furiousball

Lyrics of My Dad Was In The Air

Dad packed up for Kyoto today
He was worried about the jet lag
He was thinking about a checked bag
14 hours up in the air
Did he pack enough clean clothes
Should he have packed his own kimono
Comrade I see
An aircraft on the horizon
She is moving at speed
She is coming way too close
Target is locked
Missiles away
The pilot looked surprised
Those Migs ruined his day
My Dad was in the air
Goddamn Red Army didn't care
Keep our comrades' airspace safe
And put that plane into
The Sea of Japan
Nineteen eighty three was a blur
Gorby wasn't preaching glasnost
Ronnie wasn't always the best host
Studying the Narita terminal map
Dad was hoping for some sake
And some sushi or hibachi
Comrade I see
An aircraft on the horizon
She is moving at speed
She is coming way too close
Target is locked
Missiles away
The pilot looked surprised
Those Migs ruined his day
My Dad was in the air
Goddamn Red Army didn't care
Keep our comrades' airspace safe
And put that plane into
The Sea of Japan
My Dad was in the air
Goddamn Red Army didn't care
Keep our comrades' airspace safe
And put that plane into
The Sea of Japan
Here's the thing
Dad landed OK
He was already at Narita
Ruskies shot one from Korea
Mom gave the all clear
Dad was having katsu
And now I'm not sure
If I made this all up
My Dad was in the air
Goddamn Red Army didn't care
Keep our comrades' airspace safe
And put that plane into
The Sea of Japan
My Dad was in the air
Goddamn Red Army didn't care
Keep our comrades' airspace safe
And put that plane into
The Sea of Japan
