lyrics

I made you a mix tape in 1985
Heavy metal to twist your little sister
But the science was blinding and your girl just wanted fun
At the mall till they closed the Sam Goody

You caught Pac-Man fever at the hospital for kids
Who know more than their parents think they should
But the pills couldn’t power through alleyways of ghosts
And your REM dreams as we know them

When David said jump you said I’ll fly
When Vince Neil said smoke you said poison
Roses have vases and braces don’t lie
Your smile like a synth line you shattered

So where is that mix tape from 1985
I want to hear if my voice has grown younger
I speak like a gravestone or a ray gun in space
President of this useless rewinding
