Take Me to the Pilot
"Take Me to the Pilot" is a rock song performed by British musician Elton John. The song was written by Bernie Taupin and composed by John for his eponymous second album in 1970.
It was released in 1970 as the B side of the second single from the album, "Your Song," which became the singer's first hit on both sides of the Atlantic.
==Composition and inspiration==
Many found this song's lyrics cryptic and incomprehensible. "If you feel that it's real/I'm on trial/and I'm here in your prison/like a coin in your mint/I am dented and spent with high treason," reads the first verse. The speaker in this odd tale then observes, "Through a glass, eye, your throne/is the one danger zone," and exhorts his captor to, "Take me to the pilot for control/take me to the pilot of your soul."
Bernie has said that he has no idea what the lyrics mean, comparing his writing style in the song to poets like "Baudelaire and Rimbaud...(who) just threw things together and went 'Wow! That sounds good'." The lyrics possess many elements: betrayal, either political or personal ("treason"); the illusion of danger ("through a glass eye"); and fearlessness toward the unknown ("take me to the pilot of your soul"). According to Elton, this and other songs recorded during this period were inspired by the science fiction books Bernie was reading at the time.
