Текст песни: The Predator Eulogy + перевод

Hey Trip! You fill out your preference worksheet?

(Naw man, I’m too scared)

Yeah, me too

All I think about is flying that damn UAV

Stuck in a booth, drinkin' a cup of coffee while I’m--

(I hear ya brotha)

Remember that time we were in Southern Watch and they shot down the Predator?

(That was a good day)

That was a good day. I never felt so happy in my life

Wrote a song about it

Wanna hear it?

(Hell yeah)

Here’s how it goes:

They shot down the Predator

That’s one less slot for me

And they shot down the Predator

And it filled my heart with glee

Yeah, I had a smile when I logged on

To AFPC

And they shot down the Predator

That’s one less slot for me

You know what the sucky thing is, though?

(What's that?)

It’s that the Air Force’ll just build more of 'em

The Man is holdin' us down

(What the hell are they thinking?)

I dunno

Wrote another verse about it

(Yeah?)

Wanna hear it?

(Hell yeah)

OK, here it goes:

Well, they shot down the Predator

And I say let’s send some more

Let’s fly 'em over Baghdad

And then see what’s in store

Yeah, 'cause I heard that the Air Force

Wants another twenty-four

And they shot down the Predator

And I say let’s send some more

Hey, nice harmonies

(Thanks)

Hey Trip?

(Yes, Snooze?)

What do you think happens when you get your Predator shot down?

Do you… say, «ah, what the hell» and go get a cup of coffee? Do you sit there

and cry yourself in bed in your pillow?

(I don’t know, man. It’s probably depressing, but I’m sure you-- you move on

with your life)

I guess so

(Poor bastard)

Yeah

They shot down the Predator

And I wonder how that feels

For that operator

Who lost his set of wheels

Yeah, it must feel so defenseless

It’s like clubbin' baby seals

And they shot down the Predator

And I wonder how that feels

Let’s do that first verse again; whaddya say?

(Sounds good, brotha)

They shot down the Predator

That’s one less slot for me

They shot down the Predator

And it filled my heart with glee

Yeah, I had a smile when I logged on

To AFPC

They shot down the Predator

And that’s one less slot for me

(You gotta add that)
