Illusions In G Major

On the seven seas, there was a phantom ship a-comin',

Shinin' in the dead of night,

I heard the crew a-hummin'

Tunes that sounded like the Rolling Stones and Leonard Cohen.

But 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.

But 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 deceive 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.
