Lyrics 1985

He's a really cool guy
He's got a cool shirt
He's got cool shoes
Did I mention the shirt
If you ever got the chance to meet him you'd know why I want to be him
He walks into a room and everyone respects him
He reads the news and doesn't let that shit affect him
He's really happy
He's thrilled to be alive
His name is any white guy in nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
He's got a job and a family
How does he do it
Balances work with his wife's underwhelming cooking
He's got all the answers that I wanna know
How can I be what I am but forty years ago
Gee whiz
He got it and he flaunts
I am the thing he is but he is it when I want
I guess it's true that some people really got to fight to survive and some people are white guys in nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
White guy
Nineteen eighty-five
Wait
It wasn't easy being any white guy in nineteen eighty-five
Some white guys were living through the AIDS crisis
Some white guys were
Italian
And I'm not saying it's hard being a white guy now
I've misspoke
I don't mean to lump a group of people in a hive
I think I just meant my dad in nineteen eighty-five
My dad
Nineteen eighty-five
My father
Nineteen eighty-five
My dad
Nineteen eighty-five
Scott Burnham
Nineteen eighty-five
My dad
Nineteen eighty-five
My father
Nineteen eighty-five
My dad
Nineteen eighty-five
Scott Burnham
Nineteen eighty-five
My dad
Nineteen eighty-five
My father
Nineteen eighty-five
If I could be anybody dead or alive
I would want to be my dad in nineteen eighty-five
