Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive!
Dup da-da-di, above the Kido Butai
Dup da-da-di, and no one survives
As the bombs fall from the sky
It was the height of the Pacific fight
And the Imperial Navy showed its might
On their way to Midway in June '42
Akagi, Kaga, Hiryu, and Soryu
Nagumos fleet with Zeros in flight
And no opposing US carriers in sight
But AF was uncovered, the US on the way
And three carriers came to join the fray!
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, above the Kido Butai
Dup da-da-di, and no one survives
As the bombs fall from the sky (Dup, dup!)
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, above the Kido Butai
Dup da-da-di, and no one survives
As the bombs fall from the sky
And three fleet carriers die
In the blink of an eye
This was the end of the Kido Butai
Admiral Nimitz, calm and wise
Trusted the codebreakers' advice
The Yorktown, patched in just two days
Joined Enterprise and Hornet's way
Spruance and Fletcher, they took the lead
And sent out their planes to search for the fleet
Down from the sky Dauntless dive bombers came
And set the Japanese carrier divisions aflame!
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, above the Kido Butai
Dup da-da-di, and no one survives
As the bombs fall from the sky (Dup, dup!)
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, above the Kido Butai
Dup da-da-di, and no one survives
As the bombs fall from the sky
And three fleet carriers die
In the blink of an eye
This was the end of the Kido Butai
Torpedo eight attacked although
Their Devastators were too slow
But their sacrifice drew the fighters low
So dive bombers could strike the fatal blow
Against Akagi, Kaga and Soryu
Hiryu was still intact and struck back
Against the Yorktown, hit her deck
But her attack came too late
And in the end Hiryu met the same fate!
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, above the Kido Butai
Dup da-da-di, and no one survives
As the bombs fall from the sky (Dup, dup!)
Dup da-da-di, dive bombers arrive
Dup da-da-di, above the Kido Butai
Dup da-da-di, and no one survives
As the bombs fall from the sky
And three fleet carriers die
In the blink of an eye
This was the end of the Kido Butai
