Or as my elderly relatives used to sing:

"The Yanks were Flying Fortresses at 40 farsend feet (x 3)
With loads of ammunition and a teeny-weeny bomb"

which was always followed by:

"And we were flying Lancasters at zero zero feet (x3)
With f all ammunition but a blin' great bomb"

..all the above (of course) to the tune of the Battle Hymn of the Republic .....
