Intro
I'm watching Kevin Arnold's Wonder Years
Tearfully nostalgic for them days back in '69
When the world was all just me and Paul playing football in the street
And Winnie Cooper was my love
I'm watching Jerry Springer make me sick
As America is throwing chairs again and I'm sitting in mine
It was you and me versus crappy T.V.
Apathetic together and glued to the screen
Just wasting each other's time, alone with you
I feel my world is starving, there's a metric ton of Easy Mac in my soul
Oooo, you know it's not The Matrix
That's a movie and this is life we're wasting here
Do you remember the day I asked you to be mine
Fifteen years old, oh god I ached for you
And I remember the way the sun looked on your hair
All that honey-colored air
Okay, let's not be weird (play C G F), not be weird
I'm watching Kevin Arnold's Wonder Years
Squandering my wonder years away as the credits roll by
This isn't my life, that wasn't my day
Nor was Daniel Stern dictating what I should say
I've been waiting for my line, God I feel so far away
I feel my world is starving, there's a metric ton of Easy Mac in my soul
Oooo, you know it's not The Matrix
That's a movie and this is life we're wasting here
Do you remember the day I asked you to be mine
Fifteen years old, oh god I ached for you
And I remember the way the sun looked on your hair
All that honey-colored air
Okay, I swear it's not too late to jump out of planes
And go soaring against the sky
I don't know why it's cool to be anti-everything
When everything has left us here
Where everyday is so unclean, a Jell-O mold of mud and beer
I want to take you way back where the sun was honey in the air
Let's hurry up and leave today before we both just slip away
It'll be okay
