'85

Intro

Oh oh

Yeah

Just a kid back then

Chorus

Saturday mornings with a plastic bowl

Television set had a mind of its own

Way back in eighty five

Trying to feel alive

Way back in eighty five

Trying to feel alive

Verse 1

Bike tires humming on the hot summer asphalt

Trading cards in the grass

Sunlight stinging my eyes

I stayed out late

Pre-Chorus

Everything was slower

Everything was louder

Everything was mine

Chorus

Saturday mornings with a plastic bowl

Television set had a mind of its own

Way back in eighty five

Trying to feel alive

Way back in eighty five

Trying to feel alive

Verse 2

Denim jackets pinned with metal buttons

Denim jackets pinned with memories

Ripped knees from the park

Tape deck spinning

Pre-Chorus

Everything was slower

Everything was louder

Everything was mine

Bridge

Borrowed time on a cordless phone

Walking home when the porch light glowed

Walked, waited, watched

No one ever called me home

Chorus

Saturday mornings with a plastic bowl

Television set had a mind of its own

Way back in eighty five

Trying to feel alive

Way back in eighty five

Trying to feel alive

Post-Chorus

Eighty five

Oh oh

Way back then

Eighty five
