Captain Fantasy Lyrics
Captain Fantasy - Ween
Please would you like to be somewhere floating free?
Seems my destiny.
Captain Fantasy.
Take a minute to go down beneath the reaches of sound.
You could be with me.
Captain Fantasy.
And when I'm there, I'm here.
And when you're near, I'm there.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
And when I'm here, I'm there.
And when you're near, I'm here.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
Please would you like to be somewhere floating free?
Seems my destiny.
Captain Fantasy.
So take a minute to go down beneath the reaches of sound.
You could be with me.
Captain Fantasy.
And when I'm there, I'm here.
And when you're near, I'm there.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
And when I'm here, I'm there.
And when you're near, I'm here.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
Wow! Yowww! Fantasy. Fantasy.
So please would you like to be somewhere floating free?
Seems my destiny.
Captain Fantasy.
So take a minute to go down beneath the reaches of sound.
You could be with me.
Captain Fantasy.
Captain Fantasy.
Please would you like to be somewhere floating free?
Seems my destiny.
Captain Fantasy.
Take a minute to go down beneath the reaches of sound.
You could be with me.
Captain Fantasy.
And when you're near, I'm there.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
And when I'm here, I'm there.
And when you're near, I'm here.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
Seems my destiny.
Captain Fantasy.
So take a minute to go down beneath the reaches of sound.
You could be with me.
Captain Fantasy.
And when you're near, I'm there.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
And when I'm here, I'm there.
And when you're near, I'm here.
The only words of your life.
Captain Fantasy.
Seems my destiny.
Captain Fantasy.
So take a minute to go down beneath the reaches of sound.
You could be with me.
Captain Fantasy.

You know, I was listening to this song with some of my friends earlier and they asked me if it was Tenacious D. It obviously wasn't, but that got me thinking - if you take this song, the vocal tone, the pacing...it seems like The D had to be Ween fans at some point.
And by 'fans', I mean 'stole the offbeat randomness and vocal styling'.
@Gideon Lorain They were friends. Ween and the D played Red Rocks a long time ago together. Gene wrote Stay Forever about a girl who is now Jack Blacks wife. He told that story before a gene ween live show. Its on youtube somewhere.

I think it's nonsense.
Wonderful ween nonsence
This is one of my all time favorites.
possibly about nonsense.
Brilliant nonsense.
nonsensical nonsense.
fuck you
I think it's about nitrous oxide. "Take a bit and go down, beneath the reaches of sound" makes sense if you're familiar with the stuff.
It sounds like a love song to me. "Captain Fantasy" sounds like a nickname a girlfriend would give to a boyfriend who makes love very well.
Sounds like a tribute to Traffic's "Dear Mr. Fantasy" in both tone and lyrics
See, Captain Fantasy is never together with who he's talking to. He is kind of just an idea - a Fantasy.
Note the key lines: "You could be with me"
"And when I'm there, I'm here And when you're near, I'm there" This makes "I'm there" equal (logically speaking!) to "I'm here" So even when "you're near" - that's the closest you'll get to Captain Fantasy.
