Something opened up the gates again
I can't control it, so I'm rushing in
Here comes a mermaid and a little girl
Some open drawers from around the world

I got some medals hanging on my chest
I've seen some good ones but I missed the best
Lady luck, don't you turn on me
I'm just a student of your history
I'm just a student of your history

Slowpoke, I'm going to run with you
Wear all your clothes and do what you do
Slowpoke, we've got some things to find
When I was faster I was always behind
When I was faster I was always behind

Something's pulling back the curtain again
The stage is getting darker and the crowd is in
The song is gentle and the song is long
Something's missing, but something is found
Something's missing, but something is found

Slowpoke, I'm going to run with you
Wear all your clothes and do what you do
Slowpoke, I've got some things to find
When I was faster I was always behind
When I was faster I was always behind
