Tori Amos - Flying Duchman
from the "China" single
from the "Past The Mission" single (live)
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
