From: Near a very good pub in rural Oxfordshire :-)
and similarly... I reckon that 'Nimrod' song may have its origins in another 'world'...

Rolling down the runway, throttles open wide
Feel the mighty fighter sliding side to side
Airborne again - without a 'blip'
It's just one more abortive trip...
But we're pressing on regardless
For the Wing Commander's AFC
and bar!

etc etc

Feel free to substitute 'Jehovah' or whatever the real word is in place of 'fighter'!
