Lyrics
Holding a flame for a certain year that treated me real nice
Growing radder all the time, I even got lucky once or twice
In the battle of having fun and feeling truly alive
I was right there on the frontline
I don't need no summer of '69
Summer of 2008 is just fine
And it's all mine!
Fixie bike and a 3310
2008 is where I wanna be
Where were you and what were you doing
In the year 2008?
Holy hell it was alright being 21 years old
Living right there in the moment
Watching the youth unfold
Uncrushed and undestroyed 2008 version of me
A little bit gormless, yes, but free from misery
No nothing bad happened that year at all
No, no, nothing bad as I recall
And I had a ball
Fixie bike and a 3310
2008 is where I wanna be
Where were you and what were you doing
In 2008?
Hey Mikey
Yeah!
I'm gonna ask you a question
Ok!
Where were you in the year 2008?
(Mikey burns)
I'm gonna paint my sunglasses pink
Paint 'em real good so i don't have to think
In my kitchen sink
Fixie bike and a 3310
2008 is where I wanna be
Where were you and what were you doing
In 2008?
Fixie bike and a 3310
2008 is where I wanna be
Don't tell me that you weren't born yet in 2008
