I smoked Consulates and Park Drive, drank Nookie Brown
Learned how to skive
Polo mints to hide my breath from my mum
Did a little weed cuz it felt like fun
Did a little bit of speed if my friend had some
Nicked Volkswagen badges Iīm a Beastie Boys son
Me so horny, me so young and I still get my washing done
Auntie Joan died of cancer God didnīt have an answer
Rhythm was a dancer
Any room for a chancer? Thatīs me in the corner, thanks sir!
I wore astute track suits, British Nike shoes, Kangol hat like LL Coolīs
Before I was īavin it, īavin it large
They nicked the BMX from out my garage
Knew it was Theo from off the estate cuz every time heīd see me, heīd smile like we were mates
From then on in Iīd have to walk to me Nanīs
And Iīd dream my dreams through a sea of prams
Like a hooligan on the football stands
And Iīd throw the vīs to Leeds and West Ham
Then I ran, I ran so far away down Scotia Road to a taxi bay
Then I ran again cuz I couldnīt pay, a Muslim didnīt get his fare that day
I apologise today

Things are better when they start
Thatīs how the 80s broke my heart

And who are you calling poof? You like Wham, man, I hate that stuff
And then my grandad died and left a hole in the family and lots of women had to nanny me
School was a laugh, they didnīt have ADD, thick was the term they used for me
(over and over)
Repeatedly
(over and over)

Take my breath away take my breath away
Bidly bidly bidly bom
Pass it on the left hand side, right turn, Clive

That girl in the fourth year, got pregnant and she was raised Catholic, brilliant!
I cried, she cried, we cried, our youth died
Drank cider in the cemetery
The year above us had discovered E and I said it werenīt for me
?12.50? I could rob me mumīs purse and buy one up Torquay
Met a girl on Monday, drank fizzy pop on Tuesday
Fingered her on Wednesday and on Thursday and Friday and on Saturday
Dumped by Sunday

Things are better when they start
Thatīs how the 80s broke my heart
The wonder years, Iīve played my part
Thatīs how the 80s broke my heart

Like I said, I lost my virginity to a girl called Anne-Marie, well she said she fancied me
And then she said "fuck me" and I thought īfuck me, Iīm all talk and itīll be over too quicklyī
And it was but I couldnīt care less, Iīd seen a girlīs bra and made a mess on her dress, oh yes!
Youīre now rocking with the best, second person in my year that had seen a breast
Iīm in my 30s now and Iīm still impressed
Where are the Falklands mum? And what have they done?
Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from?

Itīs the 80s, what you looking at, ya mong?
So young, so long, so young, so long
Too short, so long
What you looking at ya mong?
Too short, so long, too short, so long
So long.
