So it was Jeremy in 1983
In his Ocean Pacific tee
Who got a bloody knee,
On his skateboard in the half pipe
In the back yard that Tuesday night

And I'm only gonna pierce my left ear
And I've been working on this mustache all summer long
And my favorite band will always be Tears for Fears
And I'm gonna wear a pink tux to the prom

Cuttin' class through the first floor window he's
Driving fast cause he never did a thing slow
And I look up to my big bro
Cause in the eighties all the ladies grabbed his hand
And couldn't let go

And I'm only gonna pierce my left ear
And I've been working on this mustache all summer long
And my favorite band will always be Tears for Fears
And I'm gonna wear a pink tux to the prom
A pink tux to the prom

do do do do do
A pink tux to the prom
do do do do do
A pink tux to the prom

I am gonna wear, a pink tux to the prom
Live without a care, what could possibly go wrong
When you're the president of the breakfast club
And you're not hesitant to fall in love,
To fall in love to throw it away
To fall in love with the eighties

I am gonna wear, a pink tux to the prom
Live without a care, what could possibly go wrong
I am gonna wear, a pink tux to the prom
Live without a care, cause you threw it away,
To fall in love with the eighties
