Lyrics:

I hoped I'd grow up to be cool
Just like the heroes in my school
Never was a bigger fool

Sixteen came and went
Nothing was different
Important lessons passed me by

Well, it seemed that all my friends knew more
But how I never knew for sure
Always last to get the punchline
Left alone to think at lunchtime
I shut my mouth and prayed
That I would get it sometime

Deep down I'm still an awkward kid
I'm not half the man I thought that I'd grow up to be
I never solved the mystery
I thought I'd find out more
But I'm as lost as I ever was before
I'm as lost as I ever was before

Look a little harder
There's less than I can tell
You may think that I'm smarter
But I've learned to act as well
In fact I'm lying, I just play a bit
Maybe one day I'll be really good at it

Deep down I'm still an awkward kid
I'm not half the man I thought that I'd grow up to be
I never solved the mystery
I thought I'd find out more
But I'm as lost as I ever was before
I'm as lost as I ever was before
I said I'm as lost as I ever was before
I said I'm as lost as I ever was before
