Back in the Ronald Reagan days
When Urkel dancing was the craze
And Mount St. Helens blew sky high, kaboom
Like that scandal with the Keating Five

When S&L's were stealing cash
We loaded barges with our trash
And sent 'em off to foreign shores, oh yeah
While we shopped at designer stores

Back to the 80's
What a joke
When the shelves were packed with New Coke, eeech
Those were the days
Let 'em go

Back to the 80's
When so regrettably
Our favorite actor was Mr. T, yeah
Those were the days
Take 'em back

Back when Led Zeppelin was breaking up
Egad
And Walter Cronkite had had enough
Egad (yeah)
So sad (yeah)
And so bad

The movies told us greed was good
And people killed for brand name shoes
And then Chernobyl blew it's top, uh-oh
On Black Monday our stock values dropped

Leona Helmsley was the queen of mean (yuck)
The stars were smoking crack cocaine
Tiny portions of nouvelle cuisine
Cost as much as Perignon champagne

Back to the 80s
Light beer flowed (just say no)
Back to Yugos out on the road, eek!
Those were the days
Let 'em go

Back to the 80s
When unpolluted seas
Were oiled by the Exxon Valdez, aargh
Those were the days
So sad

When Julie Andrews popped off her top (bazooms)
In S.O.B., what a total flop
Egad (yeah)
So sad (yeah)
And so bad

(ow)

Dismay for mullets and techno pop
Dismay for jelly shoes and scrunch socks
Dismay for Popples and sausage curls
Dismay for Culture Club and valley girls

We dread
We dread
We dread
We dread

Back to the 80s (Forget the 80s)
Big hair bows (Just let it go)
Go out gam-bl-ing with Pete Rose, hey
Those were the days
Don't go back

Back to the 80s (and going postal)
What do we see (Smurfs!)
It's the first virus on our PCs, zap
Those were the days
Take 'em back

The Killer Klowns and the Feebles flicks (mall chicks)
They decommissioned Route 66
Egad (yeah)
So sad (yeah)

Don't go back (to) (the 80's)
Where's the beef?
(Time of excess)
(And the Iran-Contra mess)
Don't go back (to) (the 80's)
Back (to) (the 80s)
Back (to) (the 80s)
Polka dots
(So classy -- not!)
(Sorta like a bad movie plot)
