Everybody Was In The French Resistance... Now! (i'm So) Waldo P. Emerson Jones


You kids have such short memories
Last year you looked right through me
I was just a little man
But I used a lot of "yes, I can"

I used to watch
And wonder how
At all the girls you would wow
But when you try hard
Then you find
That it's just a state of mind
Now I'm so Waldo P. Emerson Jones

While you spent the summer
Topping up your tan
I was working on my image
Now I'm a self-made man
I could fill a notebook
With all the paths I could've taken
I used to watch
And wonder how
At all the girls you would wow
But when you try hard
Then you find
That it's just a state of mind
(Who's that boy from out the blue?
Someone I once knew?
I recognize something in his
I don't know why)
Now I'm so Waldo P. Emerson Jones

It's not that drastic, I suppose
Just a haircut and some different clothes
You don't change much when you change your name
You just feel better about being the same

I used to watch
And wonder how
At all the girls you would wow
But when you try hard
Then you find
That it's just a state of mind
(Who's that boy from out the blue?
Someone I once knew?
I recognize something in his eyes
Who's that boy from out the blue?
Someone I once knew?
I recognize something in his
I don't know why)
Now I'm so Waldo P. Emerson Jones
At your service
