Woohoohoo
Woohoohoo 

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 twenty-four 
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 White Snake's car 
Her yellow SUV is now the enemy 
Looks at her average life 
And 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 19, 19, 1985 

Woohoohoo 
(1985) 
Woohoohoo

She's seen all the classics, she knows every line 
'Breakfast Club', 'Pretty in Pink' 
Even 'St. 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 was

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 

Woohoohoo

She hates time, make it stop 
When did Motley Crue become classic rock
And when did Ozzy become an actor
Please make this stop, stop 
Stop, 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 

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


NOTE - the 'clean' version of the song has a different section, 
shake her as sis changed to shake it down

If you want to hear the original I would say order the SR-71 ablum "Here We Go Again". It's not in stores in America but it's totally worth it. Every song on that album is driving and absolutely amazing

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal OMG!! i love this song so much!!! I love the 80's and to have a song about it is just so freakin awesome!! I listen to it over and oer again!! The video is also so hilarious! Bowling for Soup is so funny! I need this CD so bad!! This song is definatly a major hit already and I hope it gets even bigger!! The lyrics and the melody go so good together! I mean it captures the 80's feel but adss a new pop/punk/rock twist! These guys are pure genius! Hard to believe it but i think this song id better than Punk Rock 101!! And its tied with Girl all the Bad Guys want! GO BFS!! :thumb:

165 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal You realize you all are followers, right? "MTV IS AWESOME"? Really. I must have missed the memo. You also realize that whoever had the bad sense and bad taste to write this song was just trying to sell CDs to whoever has ever liked or heard of Madonna, Nirvana, Prozac, or any other well known name in the song? I just decided I don't like any of you. Nirvana is awesome though. However, if you are reading this, like this song, and also like Nirvana, you probably aren't good enough anyway to like Nirvana, so just stop. And stop with the smilies. I hate the smilies. You are all stupid followers, and while corporate America most likely LOVES you, I do not. Have fun being idiots. Bye-bye now.

165 posts	P.S. Look a few posts up from this one, written by someone with the user name "people"... they said something along the lines of "this song is awesome" with awesome spelled wrong. Get an education, for everyone's sake, please. Don't make a random stranger on the internet correct your bad spelling.

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal i want to die when i hear this song. it's terrible. "hey guys, let's think of twenty different band names and ten different movies of the eighties, just so long as they rhyme." what a stupid idea. it's not even creative. and although i've only heard it a few times, i'm almost positive the rythm is just the same as that "stacie's mom" song by fountains of wayne. i've got an idea for bowling for soup: stop writing crappy music. the only people that legitimately like your songs are 15 year old girls who think they're punk because they wear sweat bands and of course, wear shirts that say "punk rock princess" or something idiotic like that. gosh, i hate mtv so badly.
