Kamikaze

(album: One Eighty - 1980)

I've heard them say the war is over
But here am I, out flying again
Who knows if I'm wrong or right
But when time has ended this flight,
This koan of life will be at an end

When you're a kamikaze
Fly more from inspiration than for joy
Though they think I'm crazy,
I'm really just an ordinary boy

I've heard them say that life is easy
Then why am I at zero again?
I drink from the sake cup
I leave when the rising sun's up,
And take my fate and fear to the skies

When you're a kamikaze
Fly more from inspiration than for joy
Think I'm crazy,
May be just an ordinary boy

I've heard them say the war is over
But here am I, out flying again
Who knows if I'm wrong or right
But when time has ended this flight,
This koan of life will be at an end

When you're a kamikaze
Fly more from inspiration than for joy
Think I'm crazy

Kamikaze I'm a kamikaze
Yes, I'm a kamikaze
Oh a kamikaze
