Oh, make me a red cape
Well, these days
Plot a course to the source of the
But on an 18 month delay
Oh, make me a red cape
I wish I was 6 again
I wanna be superman
I miss him every day
But it's a bitter sweet feeling hearing
And these days
If only am I alive
Here I stand, 6 feet small
If Heaven's all we want it to be
If only am I alive
Send your prayers to me, care of 1983
Here I stand, 6 feet small
Where the actor's names have changed, oh well
Frozen in front of me
If my life was more like 1983
And smiling 'cause I'm scared as Hell
'Wrapped around your finger' on the radio
Thinking 'bout my brother Ben
If only am I alive
Oh, if only my life was more like 1983
Oh, if only my life was more like 1983
I wish I was 6 again
Whatever happened to my, whatever happened to my
Like they were at the start of me
All these things would be more
Like they were at the start of me
Had it made in '83
When came the day that it got thrown away
And everything is as it was
But that's my plastic in the dirt
And don't you think I should have had some say in that decision
I wanna be superman
Or confused themselves with dreams
Romanticizing years ago
Rip out the floorboards, replace the shutters
And most of my memories have escaped me
Purest little part of me
You can paint that house a rainbow of colors
Kind of like my life is like a sequel to a movie
All these things would be more
Well, he looks just like his brother John
Whatever happened to my lunchbox
