Lyrics submitted by magicnudiesuit. Now in Sept. I remember hearing this song on the radio when I was a kid and the Vietnam War was still on. Yes, I think it's an anti-war song, but it also pokes fun at those who feel that God leads America into battle. Killing to defend one's self, or to defend one's nation from attack is not only permitted, but is sometimes actually commanded by God in the Bible. So The Animals anti-war "bullet" has missed the mark! Oh, well

Lyrics sky pilot

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. 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. 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.

The song is a balladic slice of life story about a chaplain who blesses a body of troops just before they set out on an overnight raid or patrol, and then retires to await their return. The introduction begins with the verse quoted above, sung a cappella and solo by Eric Burdon. Thereafter the band joins in with instruments for the chorus. Several verse-chorus iterations follow, leaving the story with the "boys" gone to battle and the Sky Pilot retired to his bed. The verses are musically lean, dominated by the vocal and a pulsing bass guitar , with a strummed acoustic guitar and drum mixed in quietly. The interlude starts as a guitar solo, but the guitar is quickly submerged under a montage of battle sounds. First come the scary sounds of an airstrike with the "Jericho Trumpet" sirens of Junkers Ju 87 Stuka; then the airstrike and rock band fade into the sounds of shouting, gunfire, and bagpipes.
