MY BEST FRIEND'S NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR WROTE THIS SONG! NO LIE! :D
1985!!! Yeah!!!
what the hell?....... . . .
@Stephanie Santos...whi l e it was literally only 5-6 years before Nirvana, Nirvana was considered to be such a ground-break i n g , genre-defini n g band at the time, that they were credited with pretty much killing 80's mainstream rock music (especially hair metal!); so, though it was only 5-6 years, the grunge world seemed like a whole lifetime removed from the care-free, innocent 80's!
middle school memories
love it
funny!!and goood
jsalerno115
today's hits are tomorrows oldies
Who's not preoccupied with the 80's in general. That was the last decade of really great rock. But, I have to add, how is a 5-6 year difference way before Nirvana?

"I'm confused... this is just a cover of SR-71's song... but done almost exactly the same way as the original."

Yes, but a lotof the lingo is updated so that the teens and tweens at the time of release could relate. Plus, the musical style was updated as well.
I'm confused... this is just a cover of SR-71's song... but done almost exactly the same way as the original.

summerox797
this has always been the most played song on my ipod and i havent listened to it in years
i remember rockin to his wen i was little!:) still a funny song!
It is sad how many people think Bowling for Soup wrote this song. This is a cover. The original being written and performed by SR-71. SR-71 is an awesome and underrated group, go check them out.
music still on mtv, i like that. :)

I remember me and best friend Jackie singing this song during recess in 2nd grade :) We were singing in bushes, what little kids do these days... :)
It is funny and absolutely true. So many party girls and boys caved and went "socially acceptable" and gave up all the fun in their life. I had a blast in 1985 but I still have a cool attitude and always will. F**k the establishmen t . Ladies don the snakeskin miniskirt and dance on your husbands faces. Never say die!
This song is funny as hell.
firedrake24

Amber Love thought of you when I heard this song....LMAO
jo bros are crud and so is (c)rap
i absolutely LOVE this song. it has a cool beat and crazy lyrics!
awesome sht
the 70s were awesome but as college class of 1980, this is pretty cool omage to the 80s as well and my white 1984 Honda Accord LX with blue velour cassette, graphic equalizer, power everything, sunroof and those fancy plastic wheel covers that looked Audi 5000 alloy wheels.
