1988 (feat. Anonymous Inc.)

The kids are sipping out of paper cups
Beating the piñata till it erupts
Party hats on
For the big day
And mommy baked the dinosaur shaped cake
Green frosting stained on our styrofoam plates
Goodie bags filled
1988

It’s such a gift to be
It’s such a gift to be young
Young
It’s such a gift to be
It’s such a gift to be young
Young

1988
It came
1988
It went
1988

Today we no longer use styrofoam
Today we no longer have an ozone
But I remember
1988
Before the party hats and confeti
Were recycled into respiratory…
Masks to help us…
Breath without disease

It was a gift to be
It was a gift to be young
Young
It was a gift to be
It was a gift to be young
Young
