the jackalopes - born in the 70's (livin' in the 50's) lyrics

(verse1)
happy days and sha-na-na
red lipstick and bullet bras
tv reruns without pause
of natalie and james without a cause
i cried the day that elvis died
and brando’s where i learned ’bout pride
and grease was the word all across the land
and jayne mansfield was the palm of my hand
(chorus)
and what’s a boy to do?
i’m livin’ in the 50’s here with you
my 70’s are a blur of memories
about the 50’s
(verse2)
missed the 60’s but i don’t care
i didn’t have to deal with all that hair
the drugs were great but that’s ok
burroughs did ’em better in the 50’s anyway!
when the 80’s came i was still a kid
and look at what the cramps and the stray cats did
the outsiders, rumble fish and stand by me
what the h-ll was i supposed to be?!
(repeat chorus)
(verse3)
as i got a little older i tried and tried
i grew my hair, got drunk and high
but woe is me to my surprise
a hood is just a greaser in disguise
so this is how the story goes
i’m livin’ in the 50’s with a ring in my nose
a victim of society
but a man’s gotta be what a man’s gotta be!
(repeat chorus)
