Jon Langford & Skull Orchard - Drone Operator lyrics

I'm not really a soldier I'm more likely to die By car wreck or cancer Than an eye in the sky That follows them home Right in through their window They never know They never know When I was a young boy I played all the games Straight out of grad school Someone gave them my name So I drifted into A job with good pay Through traffic and construction I drive in every day Don't call me a coward I know what is allowed I'm like a god with a thunderbolt Sitting on a big white cloud I'm a drone operator With targets to scan I sit drinking coffee With one eye on the ground in the tribal lands I'm a drone operator I am part of a team I study my monitor Wipe some dust from the screen It didn't look like a wedding It really wasn't my call When it all was over We went to a bar, drank beer and watched basketball
