Il testo della 19-something

I saw star wars at least 8 times
Had the pac-man pattern memorized
And i've seen the stuff they put inside
Stretch armstrong

I was roger stauback back in my back yard
Had a shoebox full of baseball cards
And a couple of evil kinevil scars
On my right arm
Well, i was a kid when elvis died
And my mama cried

Chorus:
It was 1970- something
In the world that i grew up in
Farrah faucett hair-do days
Bell bottoms and 8-track tapes
Lookin' back now i can see me
And oh, man did i look cheesy
But i wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Oh, it was 1970-something

It was the dawning of a new decade
When we got our first microwave
And dad broke down and finally shaved
Those sideburns off
I took the stickers off of my rubix cube
Watched mtv all afternoon
My first love was daisy duke
In them cut off jeans
A space shuttle fell out of the sky
And the whole world cried

Chorus:
It was 1980-something
In the world that i grew up in
Skating rinks and black trans ams
Big hair and parachute pants
Lookin' back now i can see me
And oh, man did i look cheesy
But i wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Oh, it was 1980-something

Now i got a mortgage and an suv
But all this responsibility
Makes me wish sometimes
Sometimes....

Chorus:
It was 1980-something
In the world that i grew up in
Skating rinks and black trans ams
Big hair and parachute pants
Lookin' back now i can see me
And oh, man did i look cheesy
But i wouldn't trade those days for nothin'
Oh, it was 1980-something

1970-something
Aw, it was 19-something
