Lyrics

POOR OLD PETER PANIC
THE LOST BOYS ALL GREW UP
LEFT NEVERLAND FOREVER
AND TOOK OUT MORTGAGES

TINKERBELLE? SHE SPLIT AS WELL
SHE’S SELLING INSURANCE
AND THE PIRATES’ RETIREMENTS
PAID OFF WELL
SINCE THEY WENT CORPORATE

POOR PETER PANIC
HAS HAD IT WITH THE WORLD
BUT POOR PETER PANIC
HAS NOWHERE ELSE TO GO

POOR OLD PETER PANIC
FLEW OFF AROUND THE WORLD
THOUGHT-OF SORT-OF FONDLY
BUT NEVER GETS THE GIRL

"I WANNA FLY THROUGH YOUR WINDOW
BUT YOUR MOTHER’S CLOSED IT UP
SEE ME LOSE MY POWER OF FLIGHT
AS I RUN DESPERATE FOR THE LAST BUS"

POOR PETER PANIC
HAS HAD IT WITH THE WORLD
BUT POOR PETER PANIC
HAS NOWHERE ELSE TO GO

O MY TRACK-TIED MAIDEN
NEVER MIND THE CHAINS
IF I CAN’T UNTIE YOU
I’LL JUST DERAIL THE TRAIN

WE OWE IT TO THE MOONLIGHT
AND THE SPIRIT OF A SONG
AND THE STARS
ARE JUST SO BEAUTIFUL
SOMETHING IS BOUND TO HAPPEN

POOR PETER PANIC
HAS HAD IT WITH THE WORLD
BUT POOR PETER PANIC
HAS NOWHERE ELSE TO GO

SHOT DOWN IN A NO-FLY ZONE
