Tori Amos
"Flying Duchman"


Hey kid
I've got a ride for you
They say your brain is a comic book tattoo
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

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?
