Flying Dutchman

Music and Lyrics by Tori Amos

Hey kid, I've got a ride for you
They say your brain is a comic book tatoo
And you'll never be anything

"What will you do with your life"
Oh, that's all you hear from noon till night

Take a trip on a rocket ship baby
Where the sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place 
And he's out of sight

Flying Duchman, are you out there?
Flying Duchman, are you out there?
Flying Duchman, are you out there?

Straight suits, they don't understand
She tried, that one with the alligator boots
But the other side drew her in

Heart falling fast when she left
Even the milky way was dressed in black

Take a trip on a rocket ship baby
The sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place 
And he's out of sight

Flying Duchman, are you out there?
Flying Duchman, are you out there?
Flying Duchman

Cause they can't see what you're born to be
They can't see me

They can't be what they can't believe
They can't see what you see

Keep the boys spinning in their own little world
Time up and so we won't say a word
They keep the boys spinning in their own little world
So afraid he'll be what they never were

Take a trip on a rocket ship baby
The sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place 
And he's out of sight

Flying Duchman, are you out there?
Flying Duchman, are you out there?
Flying Duchman

Cause they can't see
Cause they can't see
Cause they can't see
Are you still out there?
 
They can't              They can't see          They can't see they can't see 
feel me                 what I've found out     you know you know
                                                you're jumping from a high jump
Are you still           They can't see and      Hide your love hide your love 
out there ?             I just move this        So many know you know 
                        mountain                but them, oh they can't see
Cause they can't see

 middle, right and left of the stereo image, which is why it scans 
 a bit strangely written down]
