you thought you had it coming
but now you really really just don't know
it seems you make a deal far too big outta this
you thought that you'd done it
jeah you thought that you had heard it all
but the state of things is putting you down now just because

you know they say it's just the eighties coming back
jeah it feels just like the eighties coming back
aw i know it's just the eighties coming
eighties coming eighties coming
eighties coming eighties coming back

you said let's do it
let's take it out and dance all night
but those deep synthesizersounds freak you out
now you wake up in the middle of the night
in terror now something just ain't right
cold sweat a cup of tea no nothing seems to help you thru the night
my god

jeah you thought you had it coming
but now it looks like you didn't know shit
but everybody's earing their hair hair the way you did 15 years ago
and it makes you wanna cry
