DESCRIPTION:
I enjoyed making this song very much there was something very magical about it from the time of it's conception and how it all came out strangely. This song will be available everywhere in the very near future for anyone who would like to have it and so I may release it as a single and will also be included in the Jak The Knife CD "Heavy Rock Material" coming later this year which will be loaded with more new songs. Ok thanks again, Cheerio!!



Island In The Sun
 
I'm bailing out, I've had my share
Of all this thunderous flak filled air.
We've lost two engines one and three
Can't see no future here for me.
 
I hate to leave, but I can't stay
With half our tail shot away,
Not to mention little things
Like gaping holes in both our wings.


2nd


Our fuel tanks are leaking fast,
And they say that #2 can't last.
What was that I heard them shout?
Number 4 is conking out?
 
Well bugger me, I see no reason
To stick around if it's 'open season'
On Forts like this, so here I go.
I'm bailing out - -  Cheerio!


Oh, all you fallen fliers who've done battle in the sky,
You've seen your ships a burning and you've seen your buddies die.

You've lost your friends and freedom,
You've lost both limbs and blood,
But through it all you're a better man,
With a stronger faith in God.


Soldiers to the battlefield
Call all soldiers to the front
We are one we are superchargers
Towards that Island In The Sun


How long How long
How long do I have to face the steel
Stare down a barrel of a gun - Bringing forth the anguished cry of 'flak'.
We are one we are superchargin'
Towards that island in the sun

How long How long
How long do I have to face the steel
Stare down a barrel of a gun - Where there'll be on dirty clouds of black!
We are one we are superchargers
Towards that island in the sun

We are all fighting for the island in the sun!
