Lyrics

I kinda wanna scream
I'm kinda freakin' out
But wait, hold up, that's it
It's just a dream, no doubt
I bet that's all it is
I'll wake without a care
Sitting on my butt with a growing gut
And receding hair
So until this nightmare's over
I'll stay calm, composed, and zen
'Cause there's not a chance in hell
That I am seventeen again
This is like crazy cool
Yet cause for some dismay
Somehow you're Mike O'Donnell
With teenage D.N.A
A science fiction plot
Except it's science fact
This morning you were you
Not the you I once knew
Wow, this is so abstract
Think I'm gonna have a meltdown
Puke my guts out in your den
'Cause I'm, no, it can't be, look at me
I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen, I'm seventeen
Worry not, I've seen this issue before
Luckily, there's IMDb to explore
For solutions to this mystical curse
Genre? Body-switching movies
"Freaky Friday" mom and daughter were swapped
"Vice Versa" nah, it totally flopped
"Big" is just like you, but in the reverse
Ned, my life isn't a movie!
Sure your situation isn't the same
Still you're stuck inside a transformative game
And the goal is find a way to return
This isn't getting us anywhere
If you want to see this magic undone
Think of movies like "Like Father, Like Son"
Every character had a problem
Something wrong they had to set right
Something supernatural pushed them
On the path to seeing the light
So the universe wants to help me fix my life
That's way out of whack?
Here's a chance to reclaim your mojo
And to get back on the right track
On the right track
I think I know why this happened. Scar wants to divorce me, my kids want nothing to do with me...it's like the universe is giving me a do-over
A do-over?
Okay, I'm thinkin' back
Yeah, keep thinkin' back
To when the change occurred
Oh, when the change occurred
I thought my high school life
Your awesome high school life
Was one that I preferred
Woah yeah, you did!
Back then I had it made
The world was at your feet
Sure to go real far as a rising star
Life was super sweet
Could the reason that I'm looking
Like the kid I knew back then
Be because I should re-join the team?
Take another shot, raise your self-esteem
Stop regretting--go and live the dream
I abandoned way back when
Yeah, that's what I gotta do
Now that I'm seventeen
It's my sci-fi dream come true
Now that you're seventeen
I'm seventeen
Woah, seventeen again
