chin up, kid - 1985 lyrics

[verse 1: josh cox]
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 24
only been with one man, what happened 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 whitesnake’s car
her yellow suv is now the enemy
looks at her average life, and nothing has been alright

[chorus: josh cox]
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, 1985
(1985)

[verse 2: josh cox]
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 tv?
whatever happened to sitcoms, game shows on the radio?
[chorus: josh cox]
since 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

[bridge: jaret redd+ck]
she hates time, make it stop
when did bowling for soup become throwback rock?
and when did pop+punk become emo?
please make this stop, stop, stop!

[chorus: josh cox]
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 1985
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
