When I was a kid
Zoom was a TV show
And I had a telephone
Hanging on the kitchen wall
We all grow up
Some a little less than others
Turning into some version
Of our fathers and our mothers
I sang about 1985
19 year after 1985
Seems like about a million years ago
Seen a lot of bands like us
Blow up and come and go
And I've lived a life time or three
Full of laughter and tears
Probably ten thousand beers
A couple wedding rings
And even if I could
I wouldn't change a thing
Now I've got kids
Still feel like one myself
And I can honestly tell my wife
That she's my best friend
Staying young (staying young)
Isn't as easy as it could be
(It's not easy as it could be)
I put on a few pounds
But I still love being me
I sang about 1985
19 years after 1985
Seems like about a million years ago
Seen a lot of bands like us
Blow up and come and go
And I've lived a life time or three
Full of laughter and tears
Probably ten thousand beers
A couple wedding rings
And even if I could
I wouldn't change a thing
Or maybe I wouldn't have
Bailed on Green Day
Cause dude he got so popular
And maybe I should've learned
A second language
Or bought stock in Apple
Sold everything that I own
And betted all on the Steelers
On the '09 Superbowl
I still sing 1985
36 years after 1985
Seems like about a million years ago
Seen a lot of bands, good friends and family
Come and go
And I've lived a life time or ten
Full of laughter and tears
Probably fifty thousand beers
A couple wedding rings
And even if I could
I wouldn't change a thing
