He was selling postcards from a paper stand
Whisky bottle in his withered hand
Put his finger on photo from an old magazine
Saw himself in the shadow of his dream
 
Advokaat and soda on ice with the Trans Siberian Orchestra echoing through the house.
'tis the season.
 
So, what the fuck. I'm listening to No Bullets Fly, and I still don't know this word from the chorus:

Killing machine - ??????? in the sky
B-17 - flying home

Some places have it as honour, some as thunder, but, and I swear it, I hear "condor" every time. Which makes sense to me when you consider the Condor Legion, where the Bf-109 cut its teeth.
 
It's either thunder or honour with the h pronounced. Funnily enough, the lyric sources on the net are split even between these options.
