Drop The Pilot

Joan Armatrading

I'm right on target, my aim is straight
So you're in love, I say what of it
Things can change, there's always changes
And I wanna try some rearranging

I say, "Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm the easy rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle"

Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need

You're kissing cousins, there's no smoke no flame
If you lose that pilot, I can fly your plane
If you want solid ground come on and try me
Or I can take you so high that you're never gonna wanna come down

I say, "Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm the easy rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle"

Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need

I said, "Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need"

Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm the easy rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle

Drop the pilot, try my balloon
Drop the monkey, smell my perfume
Drop the mahout, I'm the easy rider
Don't use your army to fight a losing battle

Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need

I say, "Drop the pilot, yeah
Drop the monkey
Drop the mahout"

Animal, mineral, physical, spiritual
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need
I'm the one you need

Drop the pilot
Drop the pilot
Drop the pilot
I said, "Drop the pilot"
