A second for this song found many years ago in an old book that I can't remember the title of! Three valve springs you'll find in my stomach Two spark plugs are safe in my lungs The propeller's in splinters inside me To my fingers the joystick is clung Take the prop boss out of my liver, The aileron out of my thigh From the seat of my pant take the piston And see if the old crate will fly I was told by a RAF veteran that this song was written in WW1 by a member of the Flying Corps, then banned by the RAF in WWII as "bad for morale"
