Backmask 1983
Beth had a stack of Jimmy's rock and roll records
Deep in the summer of '83
Her older brother Tom got busted for weed
I don't know what that means
Backmask
The sun is down around Elizabeth Park now
The kids all gang around Riverwood
We put the record player up on the bed
Bandana flashlights red on the Time Life books
Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, UFOs, ESP
Clairvoyance, haunted houses, ghosts, Halloween
Spin the records back, The Devil's talking to me
Curtains blow in the breeze
Backmask 1983, 1983
I want to believe
In the mystery, mystery
Backmask 1983
Got a Farrah poster up in my bedroom
Hotter than Cheryl Ladd, she's the one
My G&S Fibreflex Bowlrider board
My sister's friends on the trampoline in the sun
Truth or dare, light as a feather, stiff as a board
Velcro wallet, red Goody comb, OP corduroy shorts
Trans Am Firebird graphic iron-on tees
Crop top, cut off the sleeves
Backmask 1983, 1983
I want to believe
I want to believe
In the mystery, mystery
Backmask 1983
Got a paper route, wake up before morning
Jump back in bed just before the dawn
Raising some money for my team uniforms
Junior League magazines door-to-door
And mowing some lawns
In Search Of, That's Incredible! Believe It or Not!
Bermuda Triangle, tidal waves, ghost ships in fog
We moved away, the kids grew apart
Time machines, warp speeds
1983, 1983
Titanic, Haley's Comet, hologram skulls
Russians, NASA rockets, high school
Run through the halls
We saw the Challenger explode on TV
I don't know what that means
Backmask 1983, 1983
How could it be?
I want to believe
In the mystery, mystery
Backmask 1983
I want to believe
I want to believe
I want to believe
In the mystery, mystery
Backmask 1983
I want to believe
I want to believe
I want to believe
In the mystery, mystery
Backmask 1983
I want to believe
In the mystery, mystery
Backmask 1983
Deep in the summer of '83
Her older brother Tom got busted for weed
I don't know what that means
Backmask
