Turn up the synth and the linn drum beat
The strobe lights flash when you move your feet
You left school in 1980, you never went to university
Got a flat on the 13th floor, and a job at the Virgin Megastore
And every weekend you and Stacy, were living it up in the 1980s
Your mum and dad said you better settle down
Find the sweetest boy you can in town
But you were the girls with the Day-Glo dreams
Never liked the boys in the stonewashed jeans
Stacy said
We buy our clothes at C + A, and we cut them up so they look ok
We don't care what our friends all say, cos we look fantastic anyway!
Turn up the synth and the linn drum beat
The strobe lights flash when you move your feet
You left school in 1980, you never went to University
Got a flat on the 13th floor, and a job at the Virgin Megastore
And every weekend you and Stacy, were living it up in the 1980s
Your mum and dad tell you what to do
But you were young and tough and independent too
You were the girls in the bus stop every night
You were the girls coming home in the morning light
Stacy said
We took ideas from The Face, on clothes and make up, music taste
We kept our lipstick in a case with a master plan for our escape!
Turn up the synth and the linn drum beat
The strobe lights flash when you move your feet
You left school in 1980, you never went to university
Got a flat on the 13th floor, and a job at the Virgin Megastore
And every weekend you and Stacy, were living it up in the 1980s
One day like a bolt out of the blue
You met a boy you never expected to
5 years later and you're back at school
With your own little girl walking right next to you
Ironing clothes, or down the shops
Buying Fairy liquid and Co Co Pops
Cleaning shoes and finding socks
Oh just for one day let's turn back the clocks and...
