Corrections requested!

Debbie just hit the wall.
She never had it all.
One Prozac a day,
husband's a CPA.
Her dreams went out the door
when she turned 24.
Only been with one man,
what happened to her plan?
She was gonna be an actress,
she was gonna be a star.
She was gonna shake her ass
on the hood of Whitesnake's car.
Her yellow SUV
is now the enemy.
Looks at her average life
and nuthing has been alright
since when

Chorus:
Springstein,
Madonna,
way before Nirvana
There was U2
and Blondie
and music still on MTV
Her two kids
in high school
they tell her that she's uncool.
'Cause she's still preoccupied
with 19-19-1985.

1985.

She's seen all the classics.
She knows every line.
Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink
Even St. Elmo's Fire
She rocked out to Wham!
Not a big Limp Biskit fan.
She thought she'd get a hand
on a member of Duran Duran.
Where's the miniskirt,
made of snake skin?
And who's the other guy
that's singing in Van Halen?
When did reality,
become TV?
Whatever happened to,
sitcoms, game shows,
on the radio there was

(Chorus)

She hates time.
Make it stop!
When did Motley Crue
become Classic Rock??
And when did Ozzie
become an actor?
Please make it
stop
stop
STOP!!
(ticking sound)
And bring back

(Chorus x 2)
