Lyrics

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 balloonDrop the monkey, smell my perfumeDrop the mahout, I'm the easy riderDon'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 balloonDrop the monkey, smell my perfumeDrop the mahout, I'm the easy riderDon'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, spiritualI'm the one you needI'm the one you needI'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, yeahDrop the monkeyDrop 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"
