Lyrics to "A Few Things the 80's Did Bring"

For those of you who missed some of the finer points of my song at the re-onion, here they are.
Remember they are sung to the tune of "My Favorite Things".


---------------- 1st verse -----------------

Boys with big hair and black Van Halen T-shirts

Girls with jean jackets and matching blue jean skirts

Parachute pants on the kid breakdancing

These are a few things the 80's did bring


Hot Shepard's pie being served to the masses

Jocks dump your books and the Heads all skip classes

Drama Geeks that make you puke when they sing

These are a few things the 80's did bring


When your job bites and your rent's due

And you're feeling sad

Be thankful that "WHAM" was just a passing fad

And then you won't feel so bad

--------------- 2nd verse -----------------

Taking a shower with friends after Gym Class

You get detention for gas that you just passed

Hormones that make you do most anything

These are a few things the 80's did bring


Cheerleaders filled with too much energy

You're in Closed Study cuz you got a "D"

Getting a boner just as the bell rings

These are a few things the 80's did bring


When your job bites and your rent's due

And you want to flee

Remember your face was once filled with acne

And then you won't feel sooooo baaaaaaad



*I couldn't remember - didn't people refer to the smoking area kids as "Heads" which I think was short for "Bone Heads"? I don't think it meant they were dumb - just that they enjoyed smoking "Bones" from time to time.


Love
