Drone Pilot Blues

"Life is not all beer and skittles" Flacco's Dad

By BrenPublished 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

did my apprenticeship on the xbox

i fine tuned those skills on playstation

i'm at the top of my class of electronic arts

i'm now proudly serving my nation

now i'm a fearless remote aviator

eating soup in West Nebraska

fragging EC’s in another land

another fearless remote aviator

waging my nervous war on the wire

it don’t matter if i tire

they’ve got another to take over

got the highest simulation score in my class

everyone knows that i’m no fool

but do you know how to tell the difference

between a weapons plant and a primary school?
