I'm trapped in my spaceship man, crossed the line
That's too damn 90's, let's go back in time
Back to the day we left far behind
Not too far that we put it out of mind
Well look at me hair band now, and I don't know
Remember the day you lost all control?
Well, I want to help you to save yourself
You're never coming back off of the shelf
It's something I hate
You're so 1988
It's always something I hate
You're so 1988
Well, I've got you right where I want you now
It's far from cool, could be the coolest sound
And thinking to yourself, you'll make it back
The thought crosses my mind and makes me laugh
Well look at me hair band now, and I don't know
We've got to keep you off the rock and roll
Well, I want to help you, you're kidding yourself
You're never coming back off of the shelf
It's something I hate
You're so 1988
It's always something I hate
You're so 1988
It's always something I hate
You're so 1988
It's always something I hate
You're so 1988
Even though I try so hard, I try so hard to do
Even though I try so hard, I try so hard to do
(Even though I try so hard, I try so hard to do)
If I could only wish, I'd make you rock harder
(Even though I try so hard, I try so hard to do)
If I could only wish, I'd make you rock harder
It's something I hate
You're so 1988
It's always something I hate
You're so 1988
(Eight, eight)
I said it's something I hate
(Eight, eight)
You're so 1988
(Eight, eight)
It's always something I hate
(Eight, eight)
You're so 1988
So 1988, oh yeah
