Rewind (Verse 1) Crank the boom box, let the tape spin back Got a pencil ready for the tangled track Stone-washed denim and a side ponytail Blue eyeshadow shining like a comet trail Exclamation perfume, making my statement Dancing on the sidewalk, or down in the basement We thought forever lived in MTV Back when the world was loud and free (Pre-Chorus) Mama said, “Just say no, don’t you start” Nancy on the TV talking straight to my heart Posters on the wall, bold red line— “Just Say No” in black and white (Chorus) Neon lights and hairspray highs Aqua Net and electric skies Big hair, bigger dreams Living life in acid-washed jeans Cassette tapes and a radio song We’d sing it out till the words were wrong Oh, we thought we knew it all back then— Rewind it, and do it all again (Verse 2) Leather jackets, bands with names Pour Some Sugar, Cherry Lane Guitars screaming through the night Every chorus hit just right Leg warmers and a midnight tan Roller rinks and Duran Duran Polaroid smiles you couldn’t erase Time stood still in a frozen frame (Pre-Chorus) Lip gloss shining, bubblegum pop “Just Say No” on the locker top Didn’t know we were never gonna stop (Chorus) Neon lights and hairspray highs Aqua Net and electric skies Big hair, bigger dreams Living life in acid-washed jeans Cassette tapes and a radio song We’d sing it out till the words were wrong Oh, we thought we knew it all back then— Rewind it, and do it all again (Bridge) We were wild but we were clean “Just say no” on every screen Bright red letters, simple truth Painted on the walls of youth Every color loud and bright Every wrong felt kinda right (Final Chorus) Neon lights and hairspray highs Aqua Net and electric skies Big hair, bigger dreams Living life in acid-washed jeans Cassette tapes and a radio song Still hear it playing all night long Oh, if I could go back again— I’d rewind the tape and dive right in (Outro) Click… static… let the tape spin Back to where the neon begins Don’t fade away, don’t let it go— I’m still lost in the 80s glow (Fade out with the sound of a cassette deck clicking stop)
