lundi, septembre 06, 2004 I heard a song on the radio that day, and it made me smile and go "Hey! That could be me..." Bowling for Soup has done it again - another crazy song that's *just so*.1985 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 (like me!) Only been with one man - what happened to her plan? She was gonna be an actress (uh, nope.) she was gonna be a star (uh, nope.) she was gonna shake her ass (uh, nope!) on the hood of White Snake’s car (uh, good band, but nope.) Her yellow SUV is now the enemy (COE too high.) Looks at her average life (You got that right.) 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 'cause she still preoccupied with 19, 19, 1985 Woohoo (1985) Woohoo She’s seen all the classics she knows every line Breakfast Club (Yes), Pretty in Pink (No) even Saint Elmo’s Fire (No) she rocked out to Wham! (I'm still rocking out to them!) not a big Limp Biscuit fan (This one I am!) 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 there 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 'cause she still preoccupied with 19, 19, 1985 Woohoo She hates time make it stop when did Motley Crew become classic rock? (They are?!) And when did Ozzy become an actor? Please make this stop Stop, Stop! 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 still preoccupied with 1985 Don't think I'm preoccupied with 1985, but hey, the rest of the song's pretty nifty. Very pop-carpe diem, similar to Five for Fighting's A Hundred Years - the sentiment I get from both the songs run along the same vein. They remind me that there are things that I want to do before I die. [1985] |
