Illusions In G Major

On the seven seas there was a phantom ship acoming
Shinin' on the dead of night
I heard the crew a hummin'
Tunes that sounded like the Rolling Stones and Leonard Cohen
They didn't know the words
So I assumed that they was foreign

But I heard them just the same
Oh doctor let me teach 'em
I just wanna please 'em now
I said doctor let me teach 'em
I just wanna please 'em now

I looked up in the sky there was a phantom plane a comin'
Shinin' in the dead of night
I heard the pilot saying
Poems that were written by John Keats and Robert Browning
He didn't know the words so
I suppose that it was nothing

But I heard them just the same
Oh doctor let me teach 'em
I just wanna please 'em now
I said doctor let me teach 'em
I just wanna please 'em now

Oh doctor please believe me, I know you won't decieve me
But do these things I'm seein', have any hidden meaning
It's all good entertainment and it doesn't cost a penny
So please doc, let me teach 'em, if I could only reach 'em

But I heard them just the same
Oh doctor let me teach 'em
I just wanna please 'em now
Oh doctor let me teach 'em
I just wanna please 'em now
