Christmas '85

Macy's just decked the halls down at the local mall What can I say? today is Black Friday We just walked through the door clock says half past four Sleepy from the tryptophan what the hell is our plan? We were gonna grab a coffee we were gonna both agree Today there's nothing free on this crazy shopping spree This four page Christmas list is now the enemy Look at our empty cart I guess it's time to start A Teddy Ruxpin some Care Bears grab me some Transformers There was Tetris Ghostbusters Nintendo still on my TV Macgyver Bob Newhart I'm filling up that shopping cart 'Cause we're still out shopping live for Christmas '85 We've seen Tower Records we've hit Waldenbooks Sam Goody Radio Shack let's give Hess Trucks a look How 'bout the Fashion Bug? Does Woolworth's have a mug? Thought we'd get a hand from Santa up in North Pole land? Where's the basketball we bought at Hermans? We need some luck so toss a penny in that fountain! When did Glamour Shots become funny? Whatever happened to arcades and food courts at the shopping mall? On the Television its Hi-Fi VCR Rewind before you Return There's B-Dalton Brentano's read my books on our orange couch I'm tired I'm hungry how the hell's it only half-past five? 'Cause I'm still our shopping live for Christmas '85 Screw retail make this stop Why did half these stores have to open on Thanksgiving night? (Thanksgiving Night) And how is Kay-Bee all sold out? Please make this stop stop stop STOP! A Saturn Robot Rubik's Cube Shake the Etch-n-Sketch clean There was Game Boy Atari That Jenga game will never last I curse this Christmas list We simply cannot coexist 'Cause I'm still out shopping live for Christmas 85 A new Walkman some Moon Shoes Grab My Little Pony There was He-man Thundercats Rock with Jem & The Holograms Grandma & Grandpa please take out the kids tonight 'Cause I have to wrap these gifts for Christmas '85
