Lyrics
kid says to his teacher on the last day of school
"it's time you come an adult
young getting older and old getting further, it depends upon who catches up
now who's in that comfort seems out of the question 'cause no one knows who is who
set a self, sit back", he said lying, "and no one knows what to do."
CHORUS:
well now this time i know
but i don't know, no, no, no, no, no
now this time i know
but i don't know quite where i'll go
he took a ship, got a crew, left for the coast
just in the nick of time
took some books, some memories, and old guitar
it wouldn't stay in tune
he said "i guess i'll get out of here, and find myself a new sound
set to sea, leave me be, while i sail away twenty miles off the ground."
