Debbie just hit the wall
she never had it all
one Prozac a day
husbands a CPA
her dreams went out the door
when she turned twenty four
only been with one man
what happen to her plan?

She was gonna be an actress
she was gonna be a star
she was gonna shake her ass
on the hood of white snake?s car
her yellow SUV is now the enemy
looks at her average life
and nothing has been alright since

Bruce Springsteen, Madonna
way before Nirvana
there was U2 and Blondie
and music still on MTV
her two kids in high school
they tell her that she?s uncool
cuz she's still preoccupied
with 19, 19, 1985

Woohoohoo
(1985)
Woohoohoo

She?s seen all the classics
she knows every line
Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink
even Saint Elmo?s Fire
she rocked out to wham
not a big Limp Bizkit fan
thought she?d get a hand
on a member of Duran Duran

Where?s the mini-skirt made of snake skin
and who?s the other guy that's singing in Van Halen
when did reality become T.V.
what ever happen to sitcoms, game shows
(on the radio was)

Woohoohoo

She hates time make it stop
when did Motley Crue become classic rock?
And when did Ozzy become an actor?
Please make this stop
Stop!
And bring back

In 1985, I placed a bet and lied,
losing all that I had,
at least with all my heart intact.

In 1985, Orwell was proved right,
Torville and Dean's bolero,
redundant as a sad welsh chapel.
In 1985, in 1985.

So God is dead, like Nietzsche said,
superstition is all we have left.
Circle the wagons, we're under attack,
we've realised there's no going back,
we've realised there's no going back.

In 1985, the Civil War failed why?,
kept hidden like scars of birth,
nature unable to soften the words.

In 1985, my words they came alive,
friends were made for life,
Morrissey and Marr gave me choice.
In 1985, in 1985.

So God is dead, like Nietzsche said,
only 16 years of age, he said.
See all the tears, for the walking dead,
we've realised there's no going back,
we've realised there's no going back.

In 1985, I placed a bet and lied,
losing all that I had.

Debbie just hit the wall
She never had it all
One prozac a day
Husband's a C.P.A.
Here dreams went out the door
Once she turned 24
Only been with one man
What happened to her plans
She was gonna be an actress
She was gonna be a star
She was gonna shake that ass
On the hood of Whitesnake's car
Now her SUV has become the enemy
Looks at her average life
Nothing has been alright... since

Bruce Springsteen, Madonna
Way before Nirvana there was U2
And Blondie and music still on MTV
Her 2 kids in high school
They tell her that she's uncool
Cause she's still preoccupied
With 1985

She's seen all the classics
at least a hundred times
Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink,
Fast Times At Ridgemont
She rocks out to Wham!
Not a big Limp Bizkit fan
Never knew George was gay
Hoped they'd hook up one day
Where's her fairy tale, where's her dream?
Where's the quarterback
From her high school football team?
Where's her fairy tale, where's her dream?
How many times will she ask herself
What happened to me?
(the rubber broke) ... When

She hates time / make it stop
When did Motley Crue become classic rock
She hates time / make it stop

You party every night until your body goes snap
She don't wanna be with you when you're actin' like that
All drunk, no shame, decided to change your name
You lose, you lose, you lose

All your inhibitions
Who's gonna take it home tonight?
Well the party looks familiar
It takes you back to 1985
But you couldn't be there if you tried
And all of the glitter neon signs
Make you believe that it's alright, tonight

You take, you leave it, you run with it and go
You put it in a hiding place where nobody knows
Five minutes later, you forgot the flavor
Now you lose, you lose, you lose

All your inhibitions
Who's gonna take it home tonight?
Well the party looks familiar
It takes you back to 1985
But you couldn't be there if you tried
And all of the glitter neon signs
Make you believe that it's alright, tonight

And you feel it
Nobody can take that away from you
Wear those colors proudly: yellow and blue
Take a bow on stage and turn around
While quietly delivering the sound
Yeah!

1985, I can just see it in your eyes
And all of the glitter neon signs
Can carry you deep into the night

1985, you couldn't be there if you tried
And all of the glitter neon signs
Make you believe that it's alright, tonight
