Back in the day,
when Michael Jackson was cool.
We listened to Guns N’ Roses,
and the Motley Crue.

Long blond hair,
and wearing leather jackets.
And all the girls,
looked exactly like Madonna

Summer of fun,
it’s the last one;
Come on down,
and shake your moneymaker.

Feeling so high,
but I’m doing fine;
C’mon and party,
like it’s 1989.

High School High,
and parachute pants.
Headbanger’s Hall
before Oakenfield was trance.

Milli Vanilli,
wasn’t so fake.
New Kids on the Block,
before there was Justin Timberlake.

Summer of fun,
it’s the last one;
C’mon down,
and shake your moneymaker.

Feeling so high,
but I’m doing fine;
C’mon and and party,
like it’s 1989.

Backwards hats,
were the coolest thing.
Billy Idol got arrested,
for his usual thing.

Van Halen was God,
Metallica was King.
MTV showing videos,
that’s all that they had.

Summer of fun,
it’s the last one;
C’mon down,
and shake your moneymaker.

Feeling so high,
but I’m doing fine;
C’mon and party,
like it’s 1989.

Before Nirvana,
before Pearl Jam,
There were no Chili Peppers,
there was just Wham!

Listen to Quiet Riot,
listen to Queen.
Before Rancid,
Clash was the thing!

Summer of fun,
it’s the last one;
C’mon down,
and shake your moneymaker.

Feeling so high,
but I’m doing fine;
C’mon and party,
Like it’s 1989.

Summer of fun,
Jannie’s got a gun.
C’mon down,
let’s see you shake your moneymaker.

Hair was the rule,
George Michael was cool,
C’mon and party,
like it’s 1989.
