On your way to the best years of your life
Everyone's banging on their gongs
The sooner you leave the sooner you're homeBack in Massachusetts
To your golden age where they tuck you in at nightYou didn't see it coming, now who you gonna wave to?
'Cause this time you're not homecoming kingDid you hear that? Have you heard that sound before?
Do you even know where it is coming from?
It's getting too loud, it keeps on pushing you out
Into the arms of 1994You didn't see it coming, now who you gonna wave to?
'Cause this time you're not homecoming king
You're not homecoming kingYou stand on your own, wasn't what you hoped at all
Do you still recall it giving dead-arms in the hall?
Stay right where you are, you'll be half of who you were
When you always would win so count the days 'til you give inBack to Massachusetts
To your golden age where your crown is shining brightYou didn't see it coming, now who you gonna wave to?
'Cause this time you're not homecoming king
You didn't see it coming, now who you gonna wave to?
'Cause this time you're not homecoming king
