Guster - Homecoming King [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

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
Back in Massachusetts
To your golden age
Where they tuck you in at night

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

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
Into the arms of 1994

[Chorus]
You're not homecoming king

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
Back to Massachusetts
To your golden age
Where your crown is shining bright

[Chorus x2]
