I've these dreams I'm
  Walking home
  Home when it used to be
  And everything is
  As it was
  Frozen in front of me
  
  Here I stand
  6 feet small
  romanticizing years ago
  it's a bitter sweet feeling hearing "Wrapped Around Your Finger" on the
  radio
  
  and these days
  I wish I was 6 again
  Oh make me a red cape
  I wanna be Superman
  
  Oh, if only my life was more like
  1983
  all these things would be more like they were at the
  start of me
  
  had it made in 83
  
  thinking bout my brother Ben
  I miss him every day
  He looks just like his brother John
  But on an 18 month delay
  
  Here I stand
  6 feet small
  and smiling cause I'm scared as hell
  kind of like my life is like a sequel to a movie
  where the actor's names have changed
  oh well
  
  well these days
  I wish I was 6 again
  Oh make me a red cape
  I wanna be Superman
  
  Oh, if only my life was more like
  1983
  all these things would be more like they were at the
  start of me
  If my life was more like
  1983
  I'd plot a course to the source of the purest little part of me
  
  and most my memories
  have escaped me
  or confused themselves with dreams
  if heaven's all we want it to be
  send your prayers to me
  care of 1983
  
  you can paint that house a rainbow of colors
  rip out the floorboards
  replace the shutters but
  that's my plastic in the dirt
  
  whatever happened to my
  whatever happened to my
  whatever happened to my lunchbox
  when came the day that it got
  thrown away and don't you think I should have had some say
  in that decision
