The Lyrics
Allied round-the-clock bombing of Germany...
1, 2, 3 O' clock, 4 O' clock bomb
5, 6, 7 O' clock, 8 O' clock bomb
9, 10, 11 O' clock, 12 O' clock bomb
They're gonna bomb around the clock all right
Load that Cookie on that weighs 2 tons
Load 18 more before we make that run
We're gonna bomb around the blocks tonight
We're gonna bomb, bomb, bomb, 'til the US fights
We're gonna bomb around the German sites tonight
We're gonna bomb until we win this war
Rain down Grand Slams until we score
We're gonna bomb around the blocks tonight
We're gonna bomb, bomb, bomb, 'til the US fights
We're gonna bomb around the German sites tonight
Messers and Fockes prowl the heavens
Flak guns below are fearsome weapons
They're gonna stalk about the box tonight
Obliques scraping underbellies left and right
Some of our Lancs ain't comin' home tonight
(Bastards got them IR sights)
When the sun comes up and reveals blue
B-bombers come out with Yankee crews
They're gonna form up in awesome sight
They're gonna bomb, bomb, bomb, in broad daylight
They're gonna bomb, gonna bomb with N-bombsights*
Germans still defend themselves
Luftwaffe sends
Strange planes with... jet engines???
Gonna stage dogfights with 'Stangs all right
T-bolts too in mid-air flight
Still we'll bomb them and their rotten Third Reich!!!
5, 6, 7 O' clock, 8 O' clock bomb
9, 10, 11 O' clock, 12 O' clock bomb
They're gonna bomb around the clock all right
Load that Cookie on that weighs 2 tons
Load 18 more before we make that run
We're gonna bomb around the blocks tonight
We're gonna bomb, bomb, bomb, 'til the US fights
We're gonna bomb around the German sites tonight
We're gonna bomb until we win this war
Rain down Grand Slams until we score
We're gonna bomb around the blocks tonight
We're gonna bomb, bomb, bomb, 'til the US fights
We're gonna bomb around the German sites tonight
Messers and Fockes prowl the heavens
Flak guns below are fearsome weapons
They're gonna stalk about the box tonight
Obliques scraping underbellies left and right
Some of our Lancs ain't comin' home tonight
(Bastards got them IR sights)
When the sun comes up and reveals blue
B-bombers come out with Yankee crews
They're gonna form up in awesome sight
They're gonna bomb, bomb, bomb, in broad daylight
They're gonna bomb, gonna bomb with N-bombsights*
Germans still defend themselves
Luftwaffe sends
Strange planes with... jet engines???
Gonna stage dogfights with 'Stangs all right
T-bolts too in mid-air flight
Still we'll bomb them and their rotten Third Reich!!!

Bomb! Security code MAD.
Looks like the Unobomber has struck as well.
funny to imagine THESE lyrics in the "Happy Days" opening! :P 5's
While Patrick is sure that a sprinkling of 1s is the work of the Unobomber, and not a considered rating, he doesn't mention that, as of this writing, eleven (11) Five-Bombers have left their automatic calling cards. Isn't it curious, Patrick, that your friend-in-arms is always high-fived -- and lavishly so when they are needed to counter those scandalous 1s for the redoubtable Rob?
Rob, you live for statistics, so why don't you crank out a magnificent 100 straight 5s and claim the record?
Make that 200, Number Boy. The more you get, the greater your parodies.
No! If there are 200 5s, my 1 will be too small to be seen on the bar chart. And you might tear the space-time continuum. Yeah, that's it.
Sacre bleu! Quel "je ne sais quoi!" Quel savoir faire! Quel merde! J'écris "cinq" un mille fois!
Bombing rates 5/5 for "humor"? Strange part of the solar system we're traveling through, Capt. Bill.
You're still angry over the bombing of Caen?
Perhaps we need an alternative category to "Funny". What bothers me most are the fellows who are turning out some interesting and well written items and not allowing comments. That, to me, defeats the purpose of this site. I don't enter, nor look at numbers, I want to know what readers think.
16 high fives, but only one person says anything positive in the comments? I guess it's Arndt's silent posse
I noticed that six authors had over ten fivers with little to no comments. Why is this? A lot of attacks going on verbally and then silence. This place is weird.
