I look out of my bedroom window pane
Every day but the view just stays the same
I was young I would run straight from this place
Come back and then start it all again
I know just what I want, know just what I need
It's a big old house and it's coming back to haunt me
We'll be all right, we'll be easy
Don't look back, don't look back
Just c'mon c'mon c'mon
Look around at the people in this place
I'm afraid that we'll end up the same way
So let's rise, dye our hair and change our names
Make a wish and just blow it all away
I know just what I want, I know just what I need
It's a big old house and it's coming back to haunt me
We'll be all right, we'll be easy
Don't look back, don't look back
Just c'mon c'mon c'mon
We'll be all right, we'll be easy
Don't look back, don't look back
Just c'mon c'mon c'mon
Cause you know what you want so c'mon c'mon c'mon
Every day but the view just stays the same
I was young I would run straight from this place
Come back and then start it all again
It's a big old house and it's coming back to haunt me
We'll be all right, we'll be easy
Don't look back, don't look back
Just c'mon c'mon c'mon
I'm afraid that we'll end up the same way
So let's rise, dye our hair and change our names
Make a wish and just blow it all away
It's a big old house and it's coming back to haunt me
We'll be all right, we'll be easy
Don't look back, don't look back
Just c'mon c'mon c'mon
Don't look back, don't look back
Just c'mon c'mon c'mon
Cause you know what you want so c'mon c'mon c'mon

we grew up in our little home towns which we hated with our annoying parents, and don't want to end up in a town like that and as people like that...and he wants to just "c'mon" and get outta there
Seems like a similar concept as "One Man Wrecking Machine" only from the other side.
I agree with scatogrl that this song is about how we don't want to end up in suburbia like our parents, but i think it also shows the other side; that no matter how much you don't want to admit it, your home will always be your childhood and will always mean something to you. Hence "I know just what I want, I know just what I need. It's a big old house and it's coming back to haung me."
yeah I think scatogrl's right on the money
It's so hard to not look back though!
