[Verse 1] Big hair, bad TV Posters peeling off my wall Mixtapes in a plastic drawer Fast-forward, that was all Arcade coins in my pocket Neon jacket, halfway torn Thought the future looked like comics Every Friday we were born [Chorus] Those were the days, it was the eighties We were wild, we were half-crazy Dancing in the kitchen, socks on tile Cheap cologne and crooked smiles Those were the days, it was the eighties Out of tune but singing bravely Didn’t know a thing, but we felt so sure Those were the days, I still want more (oh) [Verse 2] Mom’s car in the driveway Windows down, the summer heat Shouting every single chorus Like the world was on repeat Wrong keys on the metal piano Bedroom band at 2 a.m. Every neighbor knew our setlist They just never knew our names [Chorus] Those were the days, it was the eighties We were wild, we were half-crazy Dancing in the kitchen, socks on tile Cheap cologne and crooked smiles Those were the days, it was the eighties Out of tune but singing bravely Didn’t know a thing, but we felt so sure Those were the days, I still want more [Bridge] We were chorus pedals, overbright Cartoon nights and sugar highs Tangled hearts and tangled wires Made-up dreams and honest lies [Chorus] Those were the days, it was the eighties We were wild, we were half-crazy Dancing in the kitchen, socks on tile Cheap cologne and crooked smiles Those were the days, it was the eighties Out of tune but singing bravely Didn’t know a thing, but we felt so sure Those were the days Those were the days I still want more (yeah)
