(VERSE ONE)
( )
Hey kid, I got a ride for you
( ) ( )
They say you're 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
(CHORUS)
Take a trip on a rocketship, baby
(Where) the sea is the sky
I know the guy who runs the place, and he's
Oo--ut of sight.
Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman, are you out there?
Flying Dutchman...
(C-D-Eb riff, as shown above verse one)
(VERSE TWO)
( )
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
(repeat chorus)
(BRIDGE)
'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...
(Vamp: ) 2X
Keep the boy spinning in their own little world, Aa--ah, Aa--ah
Tie him up, so he won't say a word, Aa--ah, Aa--ah
Keep the boy spinning in their own little world, Aa--ah, Aa--ah
So afraid he'll be what they never were, Aa--ah... ahh
(repeat chorus)
(CODA)
'Cause they can't see... 'Cause they can't see... 'Cause they can't see...
Are you still out there? Oo-ohh, Oo-ohh-ohh... (Oh,)
They can't see, they can't see,
You know, you know, you're jumping from a high jump
Hide your love, hide your love
So many know, you know, but them, they can't see...
