_I'm for Estrella War flying,
Because I'm too lazy to drive.
I'm for Estrella War flying;
I'd rather spend money, and get there alive._
The drive's 30 hours when made from Three Rivers,
So I've got a friend bringing most of my gear.
While they are driving through snow in the mountains,
I'm flying coach drinking imported beer.
_I'm for Estrella War flying,
Because I'm to lazy to drive.
I'm for Estrella War flying;
I'd rather spend money, and get there alive._
I've got my shield in a garment bag hanging,
My polearm and swords in a bag labled 'skis'.
I'll check those bags, and a few hours later,
I disembark to a warm Phoenix breeze.
_I'm for Estrella War flying,
Because I'm to lazy to drive.
I'm for Estrella War flying;
I'd rather spend money, and get there alive._
I've heard the drive there is fraught with adventure;
Ice on the windshield, or sun in your eyes.
Long hours staring at endless horizons,
And too many meals made of burgers and fries.
_I'm for Estrella War flying,
Because I'm to lazy to drive.
I'm for Estrella War flying;
I'd rather spend money, and get there alive._
While they were packing the van for the ride home,
I checked my bags and then took to the air.
In some little town they were caught in a speed trap,
The fine that they paid would have covered air fare.
_Final Chorus: So we're for Estrella War flying,
Because its too damn far to drive.
We're for Estrella War flying.
We'll all spend the money, and get there alive._
