1985 (Live 2018) Lyrics by Bowling for Soup

Older, Fatter, Still the Greatest Ever!

2019

[Spoken: Concert Crowd]
(Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one!)
[Intro]
Woo-hoo-hoo
Woo-hoo-hoo
[Verse 1]
Here we go!
Debbie just hit the wall, she never had it all
One Prozac a day, husband's a CPA
Her dreams went out the door when she turned twenty-four
Only been with one man, what happened to her plan?
[Pre-Chorus]
She was gonna be an actress, she was gonna be a star
She was gonna shake her ass on the hood of Whitesnake's car
Her yellow SUV is now the еnemy
Looks at her averagе life, and nothing has been alright
[Chorus]
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
'Cause she's still preoccupied with 19, 19, 1985 (Woo-hoo-hoo)
(1985)
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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 TV?
Whatever happened to sitcoms, game shows?
[Chorus]
On the radio was 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
She's still preoccupied with 19, 19, 1985
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
She hates time, make it stop
When did Mötley Crüe become classic rock? (Classic rock)
And when did Ozzy become an actor?
Please make this stop, stop, STOP!
[Spoken: Jaret Reddick & Chris Burney, Crowd]
Okay, who knows the words to this song?
This is where you- what's your name again? Derrick? Derrick is your name?
This is where you guys sing our song to us and impress our new guitar player, Derrick!
Here we go, don't play, they're gonna sing, okay?
And bring back 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
'Cause she's still preoccupied with 19-19-1985
Some of you are in a different concert
That was through the rails
It's just cause, the venue is fucking crazy big, we're killing it right now!
The reverb going on... reverb! (Reverb!)
Okay Derrick, here's what happens, I start the next chorus and we go right in, ready for this shit? Or do you wanna start it?
And take this shit home!
Do you wanna sing it? "And bring back", do you wanna do that?
[Chorus: Derrick, Jaret Reddick]
And bring back Springsteen, Madonna, way before Nirvana
There was U2 and Blondie, and music still on MTV
Her two kids in high school tell her that she's uncool
'Cause she's still preoccupied, 1985
Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, way before Nirvana (1985)
There was U2 and Blondie, and music still on MTV (1985)
Her two kids in high school, they tell her that she's uncool (1985)
'Cause she's still preoccupied with 19, 19, 1985
[Spoken: Jaret Reddick]
Thank you guys so very much!
