lyrics

Verse 1

I was dancing alone in my room with a view,
with my 8-track repeater.
Had no desire to grow up anytime soon,
and with my radio speaker,
I would turn up the tune.

Chorus

In 1985, we’re taking a chance,
had enough of making love,
I just wanted to dance
in 1985, I’m done with romance,
had enough of making love,
I just wanted to dance.

Verse 2

Switching out the tape to hear some side-B Sting,
I gave the music a listen.
If Jackson could sing and if Prince were king,
we’ve got only one question,
where would The Bolts fit in?

Chorus

In 1985, we’re taking a chance,
had enough of making love,
I just wanted to dance
in 1985, I’m done with romance,
had enough of making love,
I just wanted to dance.

Verse 3

So, I was dancing alone in my room with a view,
with my 8-track repeater.
My momma would scream, “Turn that down, would you?”,
but I’d just turn up the speaker.
Riding on the sound-wave where Hall & Oates meet,
they say she’s just a man-eater.
Now give me all that music, we’re making it sweet.
I don’t want to grow up,
I just want to move my feet.

Chorus

In 1985, we’re taking a chance,
had enough of making love,
I just wanted to dance
in 1985, I’m done with romance,
had enough of making love,
I just wanted to dance.
