Animals Miscellaneous Sky Pilot SKY PILOT (Burdon/Briggs/Weider/Jenkins/McCulloch) ERIC BURDON & THE ANIMALS - 1968 He blesses the boys as they stand in life the smell of gun grease and their bayonets they shine he's here to help them all that he can to make them feel wanted he's a good holy man. Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly you'll never never never reach the sky. He smiles at the young soldiers tells them it's all right he knows of their fears in the forthcoming fight soon there'll be blood and many will die mother and fathers back home they will cry. Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly you'll never never never reach the sky. He humbles a prayer and it ends with a smile the order is given they move down the line but hell stay behind and he'll meditate but it won't stop to bleeding or is the hate. As the young men move out into the battle zone he feels good with god you're never alone he feels so tired and he lays on his bed hopes the men will find courage in the words that he's said. Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly you'll never never never reach the sky. You're soldiers of god you must understand the fate of your country is in your young hands may god give you strength do your job really well if it all was worth in only time it will tell. In the morning they returned with tears in their eyes the stench of death drifts up to the skies a young soldier so it looks at the sky bright remember the words thou shalt not kill. |
