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 laid ahead of me, oh The clock is ticking faster now I'm too old to be growing up Goodbye to heartache that's the only southern part of me I'll pack some boxes in the basement then 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 And I've been lost at sea inside a house off Beachwood Avenue and I I made a mess out of the life that laid 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 and I I made a mess out of the life that laid ahead of me, oh The clock is ticking faster now The clock is ticking faster now
