Sortie Makes Sense

This is the way we start our day Counting flights tied to time in grade Survive thirty-two and obtain a promotion Advance three ranks and you get to go home Sortie makes sense if you believe the dream Dangerous situations don't increase the count Reaching the target is not what the war's about The Air Force has to have more planes than the Navy Budgets are determined by counting too Sortie makes sense if you understand the game Some fuses were misplaced so take off with half a load Whatever you do, keep the mission count sky-high Why didn't anyone think of this before? There's really no point in carrying bombs at all Sortie makes sense if you throw away your brain
