You kids have such short memories Last year you looked right through me I was just a little man But I used a lot of "yes, I can" I used to watch And wonder how At all the girls you would wow But when you try hard Then you find That it's just a state of mind Now I'm so Waldo P. Emerson Jones While you spent the summer Topping up your tan I was working on my image Now I'm a self-made man I could fill a notebook With all the paths I could've taken I used to watch And wonder how At all the girls you would wow But when you try hard Then you find That it's just a state of mind (Who's that boy from out the blue? Someone I once knew? I recognize something in his I don't know why) Now I'm so Waldo P. Emerson Jones It's not that drastic, I suppose Just a haircut and some different clothes You don't change much when you change your name You just feel better about being the same I used to watch And wonder how At all the girls you would wow But when you try hard Then you find That it's just a state of mind (Who's that boy from out the blue? Someone I once knew? I recognize something in his eyes Who's that boy from out the blue? Someone I once knew? I recognize something in his I don't know why) Now I'm so Waldo P. Emerson Jones At your service
