High School Dance Dwm
I am a teenaged girl in
The year 1988
I'm so full of excitement
To be going on this date
As I get myself ready
I really must say,
It really can't be good
To use this much hair spray.
Big hair and bright colors
Is the style today
A shirt off the shoulder
Or jeans that are frayed.
My date has arrived
flowers are on my wrist
I take one more look
To make sure nothing has been missed
The gyms filled with streamers
balloons floating in the air.
We see our friends
andmake our way over there
They played the best music
Bands I like to listen to
Madonna, Van Halen,
The Cure and U2
We danced all night
And had such a blast
Dancing and laughing
I wished it all would last.
Some time from now
I will think of this date
When I went to the dance
As a teen in '88.
