on your way
to the best years of your life
everyones banging on their drums
the sooner you leave
the sooner you're home

back in Massachusetts
to your golden age
where your crown is shining bright

you didn't see it coming
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King

did you hear that
have you heard that sound before
do you even know where it is coming from

its getting too loud
it keeps on pushing you down
into the arms of 1994

did you see it coming
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King
you're not Homecoming King

do you stand on your own
was this what you wanted at all
do you still recall her
count the days till you'll be home

back in Massachusetts
to your golden age
where they tuck you in at night

did you see it coming
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King

you didn't you see it comin
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King



son
is there anything you need
everything feels like it's too close
the sooner you leave
the sooner you're home

back in Massachusetts
the golden age
where there's anything you need

did you see it coming
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King

gone
while the world is fast asleep
all of the days of longing gone, how long
it's getting too loud
it keeps on pushing you out
dream of the days when you were so long gone

you didn't see it coming
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King
you're not Homecoming King

you stand on your own
was it what you hoped at all
do you still recall her
keeping depted to the hall
stay right where you are
you'll be half of who you were
and you always will win
count the days till you'll be there

back in Massachusetts
the golden age
where there's everything you need

did you see it coming
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King

you didn't you see it comin
now who you gonna wave to
cause this time
you're not Homecoming King
