[Verse 1: Ryan Miller]
On your way to the best years of your life
Everyone's banging on their gongs
The sooner you leave, the sooner you're home

[Pre-Chorus: Miller]
Back in Massachusetts
To your golden age
Where they tuck you in at night

[Chorus: Miller & Adam Gardner]
You didn't see it coming
Now who you gonna wave to?
'Cause this time you're not homecoming king

[Verse 2: Miller]
Did 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
Back to the arms of 1994

[Chorus: Miller & Adam Gardner]
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
[Bridge: Miller/Miller & Gardner]
You stand on your own
Wasn't what you hoped at all
Do you still recall it
You're giving dead-arms in the hall
Stay right where you are
You'll be half of who you were
When you would always win
So count the days 'til you give in

[Pre-Chorus: Miller]
Back to Massachusetts
To your golden age
Where your crown is shining bright

[Chorus: Miller & Gardner]
You didn't see it coming
Now who you gonna wave to?
'Cause this time you're not homecoming king

[Chorus: Gardner/Miller/Miller & Gardner]
You didn't see it coming
(No you did not)
But who you gonna wave to?
'Cause this time you're not homecoming king
[Outro: "Chariots of Fire"]
