BOS Armatrading, "Drop the Pilot"!

"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"

OK... anybody know what a "mahout" is?

BOS(U)2

Since you asked,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahout

Usually, a mahout starts as a boy in the 'family business' when he is assigned an elephant early in its life and they would be attached to each other throughout the elephant's life.

Post by: RGMike on September 19, 2008, 09:20:09 AM: SRV's "Mary had A Little Lamb" is at least a bit more muscular than Macca's. But still, nursery rhymes and rock don't really mix, IMHO.

Post by: RGMike on September 19, 2008, 09:36:39 AM: Ho hum: Elvis C with Daryl Hall on backing vox, yadda yadda.

But this Buffett, "One Particular Harbor", is another rarity. Ginger gets the award for most-eclectic-set-of-the-day.

I thought Fraggle Rock was entirely underground?

No idea -- I didn't have HBO in 1983.

I do! Too late to prove it, but I've played a bunch of role-playing games where commanding an early-history army from India was one of your choices. And mahouts were very effective against massed infantry.
