Born in the Seventies

Just a navigator not on missile command
 I don't think that's too bad, but does he even care?
 Volkswagen collector, ordering all the parts
 History professor, studies all the wars
 Makes pretty good sense to have it this way
 Makes pretty good sense to start a family
 Rifles and fighter jets might go hand in hand
 But I still think of good old Dad
 Watching older movies as a young man
 Can give you lots of ideas, you could start a band
 You never knew the real seed that brought you from the earth
 His picture on the fireplace seemed different than he looked
 Was it different than he looked?
 Rifles and fighter jets might go hand in hand
 But I still think of good old Dad
 You handled it fine, it's safe to say
 Fare thee well unfortunate plane
 A bracelet on the ocean floor makes for a party
 In southern California somewhere tranquil by the sea
 But fare thee well unfortunate plane
 Makes pretty good sense to have it this way
 Makes pretty good sense to start a family
 Rifles and fighter jets might go hand in hand
 But I still think of good old Dad
