| Oh no, he's buying an island | |
| Oh no, he's building a boat | |
| Why does he never stop smiling? | |
| Fun surrounds him like a deep moat | |
| Where does he get all those stories? | |
| How can he tell such a lie? | |
| He's bound to see purgatory | |
| His views are in short supply | |
| But Peter Pan would understand | |
| His schemes and dreams and ploys | |
| Best keep an eye on his slight hand | |
| He such an altered boy | |
| Good God, he's talking with parrots | |
| Painting his dreams in the sand | |
| Piling up beaucoup demerits | |
| Doing it just 'cause he can | |
| By Jove he's having a cocoa | |
| Evading those judgmental eyes | |
| Calmly walking his tight rope | |
| High above all the outcries | |
| But Peter Pan would understand | |
| His schemes and dreams and ploys | |
| Best keep an eye on his slight hand | |
| He such an altered boy | |
| The story goes | |
| he stumbled at the alter | |
| Now it seems he just blasphemes | |
| And dwells with dangers daughter | |
| Someone call the talking doctor | |
| Somebody get a SWAT team | |
| There he sits getting away with murder | |
| How dare him live out his dreams | |
| But Peter Pan would understand | |
| His schemes and dreams and ploys | |
| Best keep an eye on his slight hand | |
| He such an altered boy | |
| Oh no, he's sailing today | |
| Oh no, beware Paraguay | |
| Oh no, anchors aweigh | |
| Oh no |
