Flying Dutchman (Live) [Vic Theatre, 24/03/94]

[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

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]

'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

[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]

'Cause they can't see

'Cause they can't see

'Cause they can't see

Are you still out there?

They can't see
