FLYING DUTCHMAN
( byTori Amos )

Hey, kid, I 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 'til night.

Take a trip on a rocketship, baby,
Where the sea is the sky.
I know the guy who runs the place,
An' he's out of sight.

Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman...

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 rocketship, baby.
The sea is the sky.
I know the guy who runs the place,
An' he's out of sight.

Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman...

'Cause they can't see
What you're born to be.
They can't see me.
The can't be
What they can't believe.
The can't see what you see.

They keep the boy spinning
In their own little world.
Anga... anga...
Tie him up so he won't say a word.
Anga... anga...
They keep the boy spinning
In their own little world.
Anga... anga...
So afraid he'll be what the never were.
Anga...

Take a trip on a rocketship, baby.
The sea is the sky.
I know the guy who runs the place,
An' he's out of sight.

Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman...

'Cause they can't see.
'Cause they can't see.
'Cause they can't see.
Are you still out there?
Whow... whow...
They can't see.
Aa... they can't see. They can't see.
They can't see what I find out.
You know, you know
Are you still out there?
You're jumping from a high jump.
>Oh... whow...
Hide your head. Hide your head.
Well, they can't see
So many know you know, but them,
And they just lose their sight.
'Cause they can't see.
'Cause they can't see.
