I Hate the '80s - The Vaselines

There was you and MTV

Pink speed emptied me

There goes the DayGlo generation

What’s my motivation?

Brain like a Rubik’s cube

Didn’t notice we got screwed

Now the party’s over

Nothing left but the hangover

What do you know?

You weren’t there

It wasn’t all

Duran-Duran, Duran-Duran

You want the truth?

Well, this is it

I hate the '80s

'Cause the '80s were shit

You put a bullet in a Beatle

Started beating on the people

A wall that wasn’t there

A war that lead nowhere

And it’s all coming down

No point in hanging around

But where did that girl go

And what did that boy know?

What do you know?

You weren’t there

It wasn’t all

Duran-Duran, Duran-Duran

You want the truth?

Well, this is it

I hate the '80s

'Cause the '80s were shit

What do you know?

You weren’t there

It wasn’t all

Duran-Duran, Duran-Duran

You want the truth?

Well, this is it

I hate the '80s

'Cause the '80s were shit

Where did that girl go?

What did that boy know?

Where did that girl go?

What did that boy know?

Where did that girl go?

What did that boy know?

Where did that girl go?

What did that boy know?
