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 Goodbye the 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 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 Don't close your eyes Don't say goodnight Don't take your life Wake up, wake up I had another nightmare, baby won't you comfort me? Been lost at sea inside a house off Beachwood Avenue, and I I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me, oh The clock is ticking faster now The clock is ticking faster now Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man Wake up, wake up (Don't close your eyes, don't say goodnight) Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't disappear, don't not be here) Wake up, wake up Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan It's time to be a man Don't close your eyes Don't say goodnight Don't disappear Don't not be here Wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up (wake up, wake up) Wake up, wake up (wake up, wake up) Wake up, wake up (wake up, wake up) Wake up, wake up Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't close your eyes) Wake up, wake up (Don't say goodnight) Wake up, wake up, it's time to be a man (Don't disappear) Wake up, wake up Wave goodbye as I outgrow the shadow of Peter Pan I'll be every bit the person we both already know I can It's time to be a man I used to see all of the world in positivity, and I've Been lost at sea inside a house off Driftwood Avenue I made a mess out of the life that lay ahead of me The clock is ticking faster now The clock is ticking faster now
