about

Originally written for M!F's debut in 2007, 'Jake, The Helicopter Pilot' was re-recorded with drums for One Car Garage EP and has become one of the project's most popular songs.

lyrics

decided to stop trying to impress people i'm not at all impressed by
now i'm not depressed at all
thinking about those days we spent together, remembering the pain, and how i got drunker
flying the world to and from planets with jake, the helicopter pilot
i know you haven't forgotten mikey
when i go crazy every sunday night, i close my eyes and i see you smile
but i know you won't be there if i need you
i could be dying. i could be lonely. you could be happy, but i know you are sad. guess what, luna, i don't give a fuck no more
flying the world to and from planets with jake the helicopter pilot
i know you haven't forgotten mikey
