Intro

(ending 2)

Verse 1

Debbie just hit the wall

she never had it all

one Prozac a day

husbands a CPA

her dreams went out the door

when she turned twenty four

only been with one man

what happen to her plan?

She was gonna be an actress

she was gonna be a star

she was gonna shake her ass

on the hood of white snake’s car

her yellow SUV

is now the enemy

looks at her average life

and nothing has been alright

Chorus

 since Bruce Springstein, Madonna

 way before Nirvana

 there was U2 and Blondie

 and music still on MTV

 her two kids in high school

 they tell her that she’s uncool

 but she's still preoccupied

with 19, 19, 1985

Intro

(after ending 1 go straight into verse 2)

Verse 2

(same as verse 1)

She’s seen all the classics

she knows every line

Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink

even Saint Elmo’s Fire

she rocked out to wham

not a big Limp Biscuit fan

thought she’d get a hand

on a member of Duran Duran

Where’s the mini-skirt made of snake skin

and who’s the other guy singing in Van Halen

when did reality become T.V.

what ever happen to sitcoms, game shows

(on the radio there was)

Chorus

Solo

Solo

Verse 3

(same chords as verses 1 and 2, listen for strumming pattern)

She hates time make it stop

when did Motley Crew become classic rock?

And when did Ozzy become an actor?

Please make this stop

Stop!

Chorus

(a little different cause of the repeat, so i put in the chords)

 and bring back Bruce Springstein, Madonna

 way before Nirvana

 there was U2 and Blondie

 and music still on MTV

 her two kids in high school

 they tell her that she’s uncool

 but she's still preoccupied

with 1985

 since Bruce Springstein, Madonna

 way before Nirvana

 there was U2 and Blondie

 and music still on MTV

 her two kids in high school

 they tell her that she’s uncool

 but she's still preoccupied

with 19, 19, 1985
