Black Francis - Captain Pasty

I'm a captain in the flying corp
I find the farm is a super bore
The world is small when I'm in the air
The universe, it don't make me scared, no

I'm a zipper in the metal mule
I'm a sipper of the rocket fuel
I've seen my friends take the blessed dive
I'm just lucky to be alive

Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty
High in the skies of alabaster faces
Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty

In the battle I'm my mother's son
I love the rattle of the melting gun
When Mars attacked with a million hits
I seen my friends in a billion bits

Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty
High in the skies of alabaster faces
Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty

''Captain Pasty, please report to the tarmac for a very important assignment
Godspeed.''

Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty
High in the skies of alabaster faces
Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty

Hang on, baby, I'm-a-really fast
Past is future and the future's past
Something I don't want to know
I'm sorry, baby, I gotta go

Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty
High in the skies of alabaster faces
Don't take your eyes off Captain Pasty
