XTC - Down in the Cockpit lyrics

[XTC - Down in the Cockpit lyrics]

Hey, hey hey hey hey hey hey hey!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh

Man acting like a farmer and
He's treating the woman like a poor cow
We got to treat you better from now

But man is just a baby and
He's needing your milk of kindness, I vow
To drink as much as you will allow

All the way through history
Man, machine, no miss-miss-mystery
All the way through history
Girl, have the brain to act
As like the weaker sex

Down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it

Queen wants the castle back from the rascal
Queen wants the castle

Now, hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh

The girl tribe are growing up
And filling the world full with a new soul
To get so far they paid a high toll

Try not to make the same mistakes
As man has made or you'll fall in that hole
And you will see us changing our role

All the way through history
Man, machine, no miss-miss-mystery
All the way through history
Girl, have the brain to act
As like the weaker sex

Down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it

Queen wants the castle back from the rascal
Queen wants the castle, now!
Hey, hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey!

"Oh, look
What is this picture down in the hole?"
"Well, I know that the strange
Being was once abundant
On this Earth they would grow in great herds
And many made important decisions
But now they are
Virtually extinct! Some say they
Were called Man!"

All the way through history
Man, machine, no miss-miss-mystery
All the way through history
Girl, have the brain to act
As like the weaker sex

Down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it

Queen wants the castle back from the rascal
The Queen wants the castle throw him!
Down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull
Him right out of it

Hey, hey hey hey hey hey hey hey!
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh

Ow, ow, ow, ow!
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
Oh oh oh oh oh, down in the cockpit
