Bomber (Scratch Lyrics) lyrics by Vic Tyler

Verse 1
Sleek and clean, the death machines
Stand ready on the decks
Inside, the men who fight in them
Run through their final checks
Absorbed in it, the pilots sit
Their lives unmoved by hate
For those that fly make others die
And never touch their fate

Chorus
He just flies the bomber
He never sees their eyes when the hell comes down
He just flies the bomber

Verse 2
Inbound trip, without a slip
The shuttle drops them free
They set the track for their attack
The backup squads agree
Now trim the jet, and don’t forget
To plot in the return
It’s time to go, for down below’s
The planet they must burn

Chorus
He just flies the bomber
He never sees their eyes when the hell comes down
He just flies the bomber

Verse 3
Now make the run, so quick it’s done
The jets scream toward the ground
But moving fast, they’re so far past
They never hear a sound
A final turn as from the stern
They watch the mushrooms grow
That fill the night with deadly light
And kill the world below

Chorus
He just flies the bomber
He never sees their eyes when the hell comes down
He just flies the bomber

Bridge
Back aboard the shuttle, there’ll be time enough to think what they have done
They’ll find their antiseptic war won’t leave them with a place that they can run
Nowhere to run

Verse 4
And there’s no deep, untroubled sleep
For those with such a debt
The guilt, alone, will not atone
Nor let a soul forget
Those cries and screams, they’re not just dreams
Imagination’s lies
Goddamn the whore, the bitch who bore
You killers from the skies

Chorus
He just flies the bomber
He never sees their eyes when the hell comes down
He just flies the bomber
