One Day

One day you'll be good
You won't know why it scared you
You'll act just like you should
You'll fix that awful hairdo
Any day now
Any day now

One day you'll be smart
You'll answer to no other
You'll outwit Uncle Sam
Trying to track you under cover
Any day now
Any day now

You'll laugh out loud in that fancy restaurant
They'll tease you: How'd you get so handsome?
Captivate the crowd, like some rosy debutante
And hold a lover's gaze for ransom

One day you'll come back
Surrender to your season
You'll rake over your tracks
And write down all your reasons
Any day now
Any day now

One day you'll be stoned
In the school supply department
And you'll freak out and run back home
And you will cry in your apartment
Any day now
Any day now

If it gives you hell, and you feel like someone else
And you stay up nights and wait for the meteor
Do not show your sweat, and do not soon forget
That I still loved you long before

You laughed out loud in that fancy restaurant
They teased you: How'd you get so handsome?
Captivate the crowd, like some rosy debutante
And hold a lover's gaze for ransom
