[Verse 1]
I spent the last six years
Like Hoffman in a swimming pool, and I've
Been lost at sea inside a house off Driftwood Avenue, and I
I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh
The clock is ticking faster now
And I'm too old to be growing up
[Verse 2]
Goodbye to heartache, that's the only southern part of me
I pack some boxes in the basement and move down the street, and I
I'll leave the pirate ships to kids who don't know anything, oh
I'll be every bit the person we both already know I'll be
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
It's time to be a man
[Post-Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
Don't say goodnight
Don't take your life
Wake up, wake up
I spent the last six years
Like Hoffman in a swimming pool, and I've
Been lost at sea inside a house off Driftwood Avenue, and I
I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh
The clock is ticking faster now
And I'm too old to be growing up
[Verse 2]
Goodbye to heartache, that's the only southern part of me
I pack some boxes in the basement and move down the street, and I
I'll leave the pirate ships to kids who don't know anything, oh
I'll be every bit the person we both already know I'll be
[Chorus]
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man
Wake up, wake up (Wake up, wake up)
Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan
It's time to be a man
[Post-Chorus]
Don't close your eyes
Don't say goodnight
Don't take your life
Wake up, wake up
