I'm Against The Eighties |
| I’m against the '80s |
| I don’t care what you say |
| I’m against the '80s |
| You don’t listen to me anyway |
| Well I’m for the '70s |
| Oh and for the '90s too |
| Yeah I’m against the '80s |
| Cos girl look what they’ve done to you |
| I made a new sound and they put it underground |
| It was a thunderbolt crash they said it’s never going to last |
| In the '80s |
| Oh yeah '80s |
| We’re victims of the '80s |
| Yeah you and me girl |
| Deflated by the '80s |
| Getting caught up in its social whirl |
| You should have seen me in the '70s |
| I was different then |
| Oh but those times have gone |
| And they ain’t never coming back again |
| So I formed myself a band and I toured it 'round the land |
| I took a look around, there was nothing going down |
| In the '80s |
| Oh yeah '80s |
| Remember in the '70s |
| When we were at school |
| Hangin' out with the older boys |
| Bending all the little rules |
| Remember in '73 |
| Yeah you and me |
| In the little wood |
| Leaning up against the tree |
| If the truth’s to be told then we were 12 years old |
| They say crime doesn’t pay but it surely did that day |
| In the '70s |
| Yeah yeah yeah |
| I’m against the '80s |
| Duran Duran |
| Fake make-up boys |
| The rum-runner clan |
| I knew you when you were at school |
| You were nothing then |
| And when you left the band |
| You were nothing again |
| You bought yourself a farm and you looked about as calm |
| As a man who’s going to freak 'cause an earthquake’s hit his street |
| In the '80s |
| Oh year '80s |
| That’s the '80s boy |
| Yeah yeah yeah |
| Well I’m against the '80s |
| Bands that couldn’t play |
| I’m against the '80s |
| Singers with nothing to say |
| You heard it on the radio |
| You saw it on the TV |
| You still went and bought it though |
| Ah it amazes me |
| You wouldn’t know style if it ran you up the aisle |
| You couldn’t spot a star if he come within a mile of the '80s |
| Oh yeah '80s |
| I’m looking forward to the '90s |
| Yeah I’ve got a new girl |
| We’re into Rave Signal III |
| 'Cos we’re in love with the modern world |
| I’m sick of winkle picker kids |
| Mary Chain debris |
| I’ve just had enough of that |
| Nah it doesn’t interest me |
| I’ve made a new sound, this ain’t going underground |
| It’s a thunderbolt crash, concerns the future and the past |
| But not the '80s |
| No not the '80s |
| We’re talkin' 'bout the '80s |
| Oh that’s the '80s |
| That’s the '80s boy |
| Yeah yeah yeah |
