The Curious Disappearance of the Sky-Ship Thunder-Man

Bought a ticket on The Hidden Cloud for a voyage to the sun
It had only just begun when I found out I'd been left behind
Sent adrift among the crooked parts that were once the greatest ships
Trying hard to get a grip before I fell apart and lost my mind
When a flash from the sky took my mind from my eyes
And the world went spinning out of time
When I woke up, I felt broke up, and I noticed I had changed
A transformation of the brain, a shiny face, a change of pace, and now
I'm never gonna be the same
Hello, hello, it's me, it's me
I'm the Sky-Ship Thunder-Man
I can't believe the things I see
And I'll beat them if I can
The Universal Appetite is living on the land
I'm looking at the world through a window
The sky's falling but it's just the same to me
Fighting lions high above the world with a cosmic iron bow
And the people down below hardly notice that they're being saved
So goodbye to the fools, and the man in the moon, they've done wrong
'Cause they don't appreciate me when I take the stage
I was made for the blue, but I'm tired of the view
And my frame of mind is changing, too
So I'll fade out, blow the flame out, and they'll see what happens then
See the starting of the end
For the sky's a bore without the loving of a Thunder-Man
Hello, hello, it's me, it's me
I'm the Sky-Ship Thunder-Man
I can't believe the things I see
And I'll beat them if I can
The Universal Appetite is living on the land
I'm looking at the world through a window
The Sky's falling but it's just the same to me
"Say a word for Sky-Ship Thunder-Man
Guess we didn't really understand
Now it seems he's gone and left us
Wandering slowly out of our skies
Cut the chord and severed the ties
A Sky-Ship disappears, now we fear sonic boom!"
