These lyrics are more than a little bit wrong. Here's how it actually goes:

So it was Jeremy in 1983 In his Ocean Pacific tee Who got a bloody knee On his skateboard In the half pipe In the backyard That Tuesday night.

And I'm only gonna pierce my left ear And I've been working on this mustache all summer long. And my favorite band will always be Tears For Fears And I'm gonna wear a pink tux to the prom.

Cuttin' class through the first flood window -- He's driving fast cuz he never did a thing slow. And I look up to my big bro Cuz in the '80s all the ladies grabbed his hand and couldn't let go.

And I'm only gonna pierce my left ear And I've been working on this mustache all summer long. And my favorite band will always be Tears For Fears And I'm gonna wear a pink tux to the prom -- A pink tux to the prom…

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo. Pink tux to the prom. Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo. Pink tux to the prom.

I am gonna wear A pink tux to the prom. Live without a care -- What could possibly go wrong?

When you're the president of the Breakfast Club And you're not hesitant to fall in love -- To fall in love.

To throw it away to fall in love with the '80s.

I am gonna wear A pink tux to the prom. Live without a care -- What could possibly go wrong?

I am gonna wear A pink tux to the prom. Live without a care -- Cuz you threw it away To fall in love…

With the '80s.

Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo. Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo. Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo.
