In the 80s
You kids think - your gear is iconic
But I'm gon take you back to see some real electronics
gimme a beige PC, green text, black screen
and 64 kB of memory (thats plenty!)
forget a phone that fits in your pocket
I keep my phone in a bag in my car (thats how we rock it!)
who needs a camcorder, that size of my hand?!
you know I wanna look like a news cameraman!
(I wanna perch it on my shoulder...like an overweight parrot!)
My disks were floppy but my hair was stiff--
and all my stickers were scratch and sniff!
In the 80s! If it was big it was good!
80s! My TV was wood!
80s! My car was shaped like box!
80s! Back when everything rocked!
Your'e tellin me mp3s oh theyre so great
I'd rather push Rewind; and sit and wait!
My first VCR cost me five grand--
VHS is best! (Im a Beta Man!)
A 16-button controllers really make me sick!
Gimme one red button and a joystick!
In the 80s! the bigger the betta!
80s! I had an antenna!
80s! my TV was thick!
80s! we didnt point and click!
80s! I had a big boom box!
80s! I calculated with my watch!
80s! My mix tapes were hot!
80s! Back when everything rooooooooooocked!
