Lyrics

Stuck in the 80?s words & music H.J. de Vlas ©2005


I saw her standing by the counter of a 7-11
Straight out of heaven
with that angel-smile

Dressed like 20 years ago, you know, the way that they used to
with a new wave hairdo
So out of style
We talked for a while

about her favourite band: Duran Duran
and all the posters she has
of Robert Smith and Wham!
(baby, I?m your man)

(chorus):
She?s just so stuck in the 80?s
it looks like maybe
she don?t like today
She?s just so stuck in the 80?s
But that?s okay
I like it anyway

Mazmerized by the lines around her eyes and a beauty-mole
on the left side, I said
?Baby, what are you doing tonight??

Breakfast club was on her mind, she said ?I still know all the lines,
I?ve seen it 57 times,
Come join me tonight?
I almost died...

Back at her place she stared me right in the face
As I noticed we ate
off real E.T. plates
(I think I need a break)

(chorus 2):
She?s just so stuck in the 80?s
it looks like maybe
she don?t like today
She?s just so stuck in the 80?s
This girl?s crazy
in every way
She?s just so stuck in the 80?s
But that?s okay
I like it anyway

(bridge):
She?s my favourite daydream, as she watches the A team
When something is new to her, she goes: ?totally tubular!?
She?s a history-page, from a different age
She?s taking me back to those sweet old days
I?m in an 80?s craze...
Oh yeah!

(repeat chorus)...
..I love her anyway
