Lyrics[]

Do you think I'm crazy for considering aviation?
I'm a fan of flying, wanna do it for the nation

'Cause I have nothing else to do
This summer but committed to you
Have a big degree in philosophy
But I don't know what I wanna be

So I'm going into aviation, yeah, mom
I'm going into aviation, yeah, dad
Going into aviation
I'm going into aviation

Do you think I'm crazy 'cause I'm up and leaving, baby, yeah?
Well, I ain't got nobody and I ain't got no money, baby, yeah

I feel high as I might tonight
So lean back and enjoy the ride
And the weather is clear, yeah, nobody is near
The future is not yet here

So I'm going into aviation, yeah, mom
I'm going into aviation, yeah, dad
Going into aviation
I'm going into aviation

Do you think I'm crazy 'cause I'm going to Pensacola? Mmm
Where nobody knows me, where someone could just start over, mmm

I'll be all right in a month or two
'Cause it's warm there in the winter, too
Think New York is great, I really like the state
But it's time to be on my way

I'm going into aviation, yeah, mom
I'm going into aviation, yeah, dad
I'm going to take a vacation, yeah, man
Fly fighter jets all over the nation
Fly fighter jets all over the nation
