Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] Flying Dutchman, are you out there? Flying Dutchman, are you out there? Flying Dutchman [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] Flying Dutchman, are you out there? Flying Dutchman, are you out there? Flying Dutchman [Post-Chorus 1] 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 [Bridge] They'll keep the boy spinning in their own little world Tie him up so he won't say a word They'll keep the boy spinning in their own little world So afraid he'll be what they never were [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] Flying Dutchman, are you out there? Flying Dutchman, are you out there? Flying Dutchman [Post-Chorus 2] They can't see They can't see They can't see Are you still out there? They can't see but I fly now They can't see, they can't see You know, you know, you're jumping from a high jump Don't hide your head, hide your head So many know, you know, but them, they can't see
