If you stand here behind me
And you call me a man
And you're counting on me to come through
You should know that I'll give you the best that I can
But we all have a little more homework to do
If you're walking beside me and you wanna be friends
You should know I'm depending on you
So you gotta hang in there till the whole story ends
Cause we all have a little more homework to do
Cause I've been looking in the back of the book for the answers Hoping the bell wouldn't chime
But I'm not ready to put down my pencil just yet
There are too many answers that I didn't get
I need a little less pressure and a little more time
I'm trying to follow, I'm trying to lead
I'm trying to find what is true
But if you're going to stand with me then you have to concede
That we all have a little more homework to do

[Charl:]
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day turns today, turns today
You get a little bit older, a little bit taller, a little bit better, a little bit
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day turns today
And the days before all go too fast, you can't hold on - so you go
Day turns, today turns, today turns, today turns, today turns, today

[Evan:]
I'm a little bit older, a little bit stronger, a little bit smarter, a little bit
Day turns, today turns, today turns, today turns, today

[Charl:]
And the days ahead coming on so quick
You can't get out of the way, you keep running

[All:]
Day turns, today turns, today turns, today turns, today turns, today
And I'm a little bit older, a little bit faster, a little bit closer, a little bit
Day turns, today turns, today turns, today turns, to day
And the sky goes blue and the sky goes black
And no matter what you do you can't go back
You go day into day into day, day into day, into day
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day turns to day, turns today

[Cassie:]
And I've been looking in the back of the book for the answers
Hoping the bell wouldn't chime

[Molly:]
And I'm not ready to put down my pencil just yet
There are too many answers that I didn't get

[Simon:]
I need a little less pressure

[All:]
And a little more time, I'm trying to follow, I am trying to lead
I am trying to learn what is true
I am trying to be what you want and I need, and we all have
A little more homework
We all have a little more homework
We all have, a little more homework to do
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day, turns to day
(A little more homework to do)
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day, turns to day
(A little more homework to do)
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day, turns to day
(A little more homework to do)
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day, turns to day

[Evan:]
A little more homework to do
Day turns to day, turns to day, turns to day, turns to day
Turns to daaaaay

If you stand here behind me
And you call me a man
