1985

Debbie just hit the wall
She never had it all
One prozac a day
Husband's a C.P.A.
Her dreams went out the door
Once she turned twenty four
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 two kids in high school
They tell her that she's uncool
'Cause she's still preoccupied
With nineteen, nineteen, 1985

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?
Ask herself what happened (the rubber broke)

Way before Nirvana

They tell her that she's uncool
'Cause she's still preoccupied
With nineteen, nineteen, 1985

She hates time, make it stop
When did Motley Crue become classic rock (classic rock)
She hates time, make it stop
She hates time
Make it, make it, make it, make it, make it
Make it stop
