about

“It’s easy to be brave at a distance."

lyrics

Pilot:
“Hi, hon’
I’ll be late for dinner
Donn’ need to wait, OK?”

Wife:
“Okay…”

Apart from the world inside a container
I leave my country for a few hours, everyday
Sitting on a desk, drink my coffee
Surrounded by screens, joysticks and keyboards

Getting back home, she asked me again:
“How was your day?”
And once more, calmly, I answered:
“There are limits, but it was OK.”

Coming straight from hell
Flying where no one sees
Hunting with high-tech eyes
Tearing targets without a sound

I chase prey of flesh and blood
From many miles of altitude
And after fulfilling a mission
I'm ready to BBQ with my friends

I am a drone pilot, bloodless
Killing from a very safe distance
Even without really flying
Where it looks like a video game
If I go down, I’ll ask for a new toy

CHORUS I
Fly and fry, fuckin ´A`
Fly and fry, newborn day
Fly and fry…


I pray for the day that never comes
When I regain my wings back
In a real plane, the real game
I will wait till the missile locks me

None of this is right!
I know civilians as faces and clothes
And soldiers as beards and guns
But dusting them, it's not a big deal

I am a drone pilot, heartless
A coward assassin hiding in the sky
Even without really flying
Where it looks like a video game
If I go down, I’ll ask for another beer

CHORUS I
Fly and fry, fuckin ´A`
Fly and fry, newborn day
Fly and fry…

Interview of an unidentified drone pilot:
“Well, killing another human is easy.
You just do it then it's done.
They die and you live, simple as that.
You think I’m a heathen savage yeah?
I'm not childish, you are.
I'm just ahead of the curve, kid.
You’re not.
You’re nothing.”

CHORUS I
Fly and fry, fuckin ´A`
Fly and fry, newborn day
Fly and fry…

CHORUS II
Fly and fry, every day
Fly and fry, bird of prey
Fly and fry, day-by-day
Fly and fry, house of pain
Fly and fry...

Fly and fry...
