I remember wishing I was older
Always something big around the corner
But as the years go by, I'm growing younger
Open eyes and head still filled with wonder
Wonder, oh

Pledge of allegiance
Everybody stand up
This is our irrational anthem
We don't care if they don't understand us
This is our irrational, irrational anthem

Let your mind go anywhere it wants to
Make your wildest wish and watch it come true
'Cause somehow somewhere we forgot
Cowboys, Indians, astronauts
All the dreams that we could not hold on to
Take it back, oh
(One, two, three, four)

Pledge of allegiance
Everybody stand up
This is our irrational anthem
We don't care if they don't understand us
This is our irrational, irrational anthem

There's nothing worse than normal
There's no fun in mundane
When everyone else gets older
I refuse to change
Weak or strong, right or wrong
Whose side are you on?

Pledge of allegiance
Everybody stand up
This is our irrational anthem
We don't care if they don't understand us
This is our irrational, irrational anthem (x2)

The fire was out, but then the phone rang
And all of the heat came back again
As much as I try, you're hard to resist
All that it takes is just one kiss

And I'm putty in your hands
I'm under your spell
You send me spinning

You pull me in close, you throw me away
I keep coming back like a boomerang
You tell me to go, you beg me to stay
I keep coming back like a boomerang
Around, around, around, and back again
Around, around, around, and back again

You treated me like I'm your little toy
You tell me I'm not like other boys
The next thing I know, you toss me aside
You don't even bother with goodbyes

But when you say hello
I can't ignore you
You send me spinning

You pull me in close, you throw me away
I keep coming back like a boomerang
You tell me to go, you beg me to stay
I keep coming back like a boomerang
Around, around, around, and back again
Around, around, around, and back again

(Boom, boom, boom)
And now my heart is racing
(Boom, boom, boom)
And after you I'm chasing
(Boom, boom, boom)
You gotta catch me when I fall
You send me spinning

You pull me in close, you throw me away
I keep coming back like a boomerang
You tell me to go, you beg me to stay
I keep coming back like a boomerang
Around, around, around, and back again
Around, around, around, and back again
Around, around, around, and back again
Around, around, around, and back again

Imagine a place you can always escape to
An island off the coast of nowhere
A new destination of your own creation
Just waiting till you choose to go there

Blue treats of and velvet skies
Blue ready to blow your mind
Oooo
This is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Welcome to mystery

Imagine a city where everythingâ?™s pretty
And you sir, you rule the kingdom
You call the shots you can do what you want to
Oh just imagine the freedom

Blue treats of and velvet skies
Blue ready to blow your mind
Oooo
This is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Welcome to mystery

Blue treats of and velvet skies
Blue ready to blow your mind
Oooo

Imagine a room where the flowers they bloom
Through the cracks in the floor and the ceiling
Just you and the missus and roses and kisses
My, what a wonderful feeling

Oooo
This is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Welcome to mystery

This is a place where your mind can escape
All the problems today and go far, far away
This is a time with no history
Feel no misery
Come and visit me
Welcome to mystery

My head is stuck in the clouds, she begs me to come down
Says, "Boy, quit foolin' around"
I told her, "I love the view from up here, warm sun and wind in my ear
We'll watch the world from above as it turns to the rhythm of love"

We may only have tonight
But 'til the morning sun, you're mine, all mine
Play the music low
And sway to the rhythm of love

Well, my heart beats like a drum, guitar string to the strum
A beautiful song to be sung
She's got blue eyes, deep like the sea that roll back when she's laughin' at me
She rises up like the tide the moment her lips meet mine

We may only have tonight
But 'til the morning sun, you're mine, all mine
Play the music low
And sway to the rhythm of love

When the moon is low
We can dance in slow motion
And all your tears will subside
All your tears will dry

And long after I've gone, you'll still be humming along
And I will keep you in my mind, the way to make love so fine

We may only have tonight
But 'til the morning sun, you're mine, all mine
Play the music low
And sway to the rhythm of love

Play the music low
And sway to the music of love
Yeah, sway to the music of love

. . .


The stars at night burn so bright
But where do I fit in?
Am I too small to matter at all?
Oh, where do I fit in?

Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
Oh, where do I fit in?

The wind comes through, singing the blues
But where do I fit in?
The autumn trees dance with the breeze
But where do I fit in?

Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
Oh, where do I fit in?

Wish I may, wish I might
Find some answers here tonight
Tell me, is there something out there?
Is there more than I can see?
I don't know what I believe
Tell me, is there something out there?
Anything out there?

Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
Oh, where do I fit in?

Am I a dot on the map of the world?
Just a spot on the map of the world?
When I imagine the whole universe
Where do we all fit in?

. . .


If I was a pirate, sailing the seas
Would you come pillage the village with me?
We'll bury the treasure and go down together
If I was a pirate

If I was an outlaw, robbing a bank
Would you be my Bonnie, help me get away?
Would you pull the trigger and blow 'em away?
If I was an outlaw

How bad would I have to be?
How bad?

If I was a vampire, roaming the night
Would you be my prey and put your neck on the line?
Live in the shadows and die in the light?
If I was a vampire

If I was a wanted man on the run
Would you take a fall if we were under the gun
And drop down beside me in the nooses they've hung?
If I was a wanted man on the run

How bad would I have to be?
How bad?

If I was the worst man in the world
Would you still be my girl?
The scariest monster you ever seen
Would you still love me?

If I was a killer with blood on my hands
Would you be my alibi and lie on the stand?
Swear on your life that I'm an innocent man?
If I was a killer

How bad would I have to be?
How bad?

. . .


And with my last breath I surrender to your attack.
'Cause I would rather sacrifice my spine
if that would get you off my back.
You're somewhere between the girl of my dreams
and the girl of my nightmares
(girl of my nightmares).
And it's not fair.

Because I'm nothing but good to you,
And you're nothing but wrong for me.
So how do I get back to the good times?
And how do I see you in a new light?
Because the harder I try, the less we feel right for each other.
How do I get back to the good times?

And with my last breath I'll thank you for choking me
Because I'd rather suffocate than have you breathing down my neck.
Flowers and trees we planted the seeds,
But nothing will grow there.
'Cause we're going nowhere.

Because I'm nothing but good to you,
And you're nothing but wrong for me.
So how do I get back to the good times?
And how do I see you in a new light?
Because the harder I try, the less we feel right for each other.
How do I get back to the good times?

What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for,
If it ain't you?

What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for,
If it ain't you?

What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for?
What am I fighting for,
If it ain't you?

What am I trying for?
What am I crying for?
What am I dying for,
If it ain't you?

It was summer love
She was like a drug
Bit me like a club
Everything was alright

I was James Dean
She was Billie Jean
California Queen
Everything was alright

From the bad beat
To the back scene
In the heat, heat
Everything was alright

Lovers and gears of common bomb
She'll always be my favorite song
She was silent gold, she was rock 'n' roll
I should have never let her go, go, go

Kiss me goodbye and I knew it was final
Got in her daddy's car and she was gone like vinyl
Her memory pops up when I least expect it
It's stuck in my head like a broken record

Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record
A broke, a broke, a broken record
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record

She was hot file
She was low file
Burning up July
Everything was alright

Left me with a kiss
I wonder where she is
If that she ever miss me
Oh, oh, oh

Lovers and gears of common bomb
She'll always be my favorite song
She was silent gold, she was rock 'n' roll
I should have never let her go, go, go, go

Kiss me goodbye and I knew it was final
Got in her daddy's car and she was gone like vinyl
Her memory pops up when I least expect it
It's stuck in my head like a broken record

Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record
A broke, a broke, a broken record
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record

I wished I could find her
Ooh, oh, oh
'Cause I need to remind her
Ooh, oh, oh

Kiss me goodbye and I knew it was final
Got in her daddy's car and she was gone like vinyl
Her memory pops up when I least expect it
It's stuck in my head like a

Kiss me goodbye and I knew it was final
Got in her daddy's car and she was gone like vinyl
Her memory pops up when I least expect it
It's stuck in my head like a broken record

Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record
A broke, a broke, a broken record
Pa, pa, pa, pa, pa, broken record

Skip, skip through my head
Skip, skip through my head
Skip, skip, skip through my head all day

Sitting on this white bed
It's not the right bed
'Cause it's not our bed
All alone in this hotel room
Feels like a hell room
'Cause it's not our room

I try to watch some TV
But it's not easy
'Cause you're not near me
I'm just feeling lonely
I wanna go home

So if you hear me singing this song
I know you're out there singing along
It's a love song, and it's the right song
'Cause it's our song

Trying to kill all my time
All day and night time
Until it's our time
If I had it my way
Beyond the highway
Straight to our driveway

I can't wait until I see you
And get to feel you
And kiss the real you
You know I need you
I wanna go home

So if you hear me singing this song
I know you're out there singing along
It's a love song, and it's the right song
'Cause it's our song

I close my eyes
(I close my eyes)
And there you are
Turn off the lights
(Turn off the lights)
And there you are
And in my dreams
(And in my dreams)
We dance and sing to each other
All night along
And this is our song

I just wanna make you happy
So come and grab me
And love me madly
I want you so badly
I'm coming home

So if you hear me singing this song
I know you're out there singing along
It's a love song, and it's the right song

And if you hear me singing this song
I know you're out there singing along
It's a love song, and it's the right song
It's a don't-give-up-without-a-fight song
It's an everything-is-all-right song
'Cause it's our song

. . .


Airplane, airplane
Put me to sleep again
Take me away, off to a dream
And then I'll fly so high across the sky
Awake in a new place
Where mistakes of my past are erased

Don't drop me
Don't stop me
Just hold me
So cozy

Airplane, airplane
Don't you go down today
Take me away, off to a better place
You know just where I'd like to go
Please get me there on time
Don't delay me from losing my mind

Don't drop me
Don't stop me
Just hold me

Airplane, airplane
Don't you go down today
Take me away, off to a better place
You just where I'd like to go
Please get me there real soon
I have important things that I must do

. . .


Take me to the big show
Take me anywhere but here
Put me in the front row
Make my problems disappear

Trapeze, high wire
Without a safety net
For the price of admission
I wanna witness life or death

All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh

I wanna make friends with the freaks
I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me

Are you ready to risk it all
And be a human cannonball?
Sharpen up those knives
And throw them at the fool against the wall
We're all against that wall

I wanna make friends with the freaks
I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
Come one, come all to the Cirque Dans La Rue
Check your troubles at the door
You don't need 'em anymore!
Leave reality outside and come along for the ride
But just remember
While you're watching us
Do the things that we do
We're watching you

All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh
All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh

I wanna make friends with the freaks
I wanna throw down with the clowns that I meet
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me
Just like me

I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
I wanna have a party in the middle of the street
Invite all the carnies and the crazy acrobats
And bearded ladies and the fire-breathers
All the people just like me

All the pretty girls get cut in half
While the sad clowns make us laugh

My heart was talking to my head
Said, "I've loved once; I'll never love again"
And my head, at this, replied
"I'll miss her too; she was easy on the eyes"

And now all they do is look around for you
And every night, with their lids closed tight
They are lost in dreams that they'll awake and see
You lying next to me

My feet could feel it in their soles
We have gone too far
And we'll never make it home
And these hands, they felt the same
They held her once, but they let her slip away

And now all I do is look around for you
And every night, with my eyes closed tight
I'm lost in dreams that I'll awake and see
You lying next to me

If there's one thing I've learned
It's how easy the tables turn
And if there's one thing I know
It's the fine art of letting go

My heart was talking to my head
Said, "I've loved once; I'll never love again"

And now all I do is look around for you
And every night, with my eyes closed tight
I'm lost in dreams that I'll awake and see
You lying next to me

. . .


I don't care where you're from
If you're smart or you're dumb
If you wanna be a bad guy or Mr. Right
I don't care what you say
I'mma go my own way
You go yours
And maybe we'll meet up someday

Make it up
(Make it up)
As you go
(As you go)
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone

I don't care what you think
I'mma do my own thing
Cut my own hair
Don't care if you like it
Just a matter of taste
And all the time you waste
Will get you there in fashionable time

Make it up
(Make it up)
As you go
(As you go)
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
Better make it up as you go

There's no need for lies
They have begun when your eyes meet the sun
We don't need any roads
Put your feet on the ground
And forget what you know
Don't make it down
Make it up as you go

I can't tell you what's best
I don't know what comes next
All I know is that I don't know anything
All I got is today, and I prefer it that way
Make a plan, but I know it's gonna change
And that's okay

Make it up
(Make it up)
As you go
(As you go)
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone

(Make it up)
Make it up
(As you go)
As you go
Future's wide open
Nothing's written in stone
Better make it up as you go
Better make it up as you go
Better make it up as you go
Better make it up as you go

. . .


Race cars and spaceships and carnival rides
Ghosts in graveyards that come out at night
These are the wonders of the younger

Daydreams of castles inside crystal balls
While your heroes on posters stand guard on your walls
These are the wonders of the younger

And I wonder why we just leave it all behind
And I wonder how we can all go back right now

Werewolves and vampires are out for the kill
If none of them catch you, the Bogeyman will
These are the wonders of the younger

Walking the plank off an old pirate ship
With a fist full of a gold and her kiss on your lips
These are the wonders of the younger

And I wonder why we just leave it all behind
And I wonder how we can all go back right now

Click your heels
Close your eyes
Make a wish goodbye
Fly away
It's not too late
Change your mind

Numbers and figures take up all my time
How did this much of my life pass me by?
I miss the wonders of the younger
