In the 80's

Tired of working, it's going too slow
You just had to be there, but you hated to go
Down to the job, where it all feels the same
Thousands of people looking for someone to blame

You and me have got to decide
We'll be lucky if we survive
In the 80's, we must come alive

You're part of the country, so you put in your claim
They take your identity and they give you a name
They hand you a number and they tell you to wait
They ask you to come inside while they're closing the gate

You and me have got to decide
'Cause we'll be lucky if we survive
In the 80's, we must come alive

You and me we've got to decide
'Cause we'll be lucky if we survive
In the 80's, we must come alive

Tired of working, it's going too slow
You just had to be there, but you hated to go
Down to the job, where it all feels the same
Thousands of people who are playing their games

You and me have got to decide
'Cause we'll be lucky if we survive
In the 80's, we must come alive
Come alive, come alive (woo woo), come alive
Come alive, come alive (woo woo), come alive, come alive
