Relient K's, "In Love With the 80's (Pink Tux to the prom)"
The Lyrics:
So it was Jeremy in 1983
in his Ocean Pacific T
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
Cutting class through the first floor window
He's driving fast cause he never did a thing slow
And I look up to my big bro
'Cause in the 80's 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, a doo doo doo
Pink tux to the prom
Doo doo, a 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 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 80's
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...
Cause you threw it away to fall in love with the 80's
Doo doo, doo doo
Doo doo, doo doo
Doo doo, doo doo
in his Ocean Pacific T
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
Cutting class through the first floor window
He's driving fast cause he never did a thing slow
And I look up to my big bro
'Cause in the 80's 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, a doo doo doo
Pink tux to the prom
Doo doo, a 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 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 80's
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...
Cause you threw it away to fall in love with the 80's
Doo doo, doo doo
Doo doo, doo doo

Relient K's, "Marilyn Manson Ate My Girlfriend"
The Lyrics:
Because... Marilyn Manson ate my girlfriend.
Satan consumed her mind, and he may do it again.
Marylin Manson ate my girlfriend.
She once believed in the truth, now she believes in sin.
Satan consumed her mind, and he may do it again.
Marylin Manson ate my girlfriend.
She once believed in the truth, now she believes in sin.
Who They Mention:
Marilyn Manson and Satan

Relient K's, "That's My Jam"
The Lyrics:
Turn up the record cause the song's just begun
I'm smashing pumpkins like it's November 1
Wish Britney'd hit me one more time on the phone
So tired of counting crows with Mr. Jones
My sister Hazel knows that it's all for you
Am I a blur or do you sing my song 2?
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Back in '99
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Our first dance
Ooh Ooh Ooh That's my jam
Jane's addicted and Alice is in chains
U2 like to move me in mysterious ways
We're chasing waterfalls and wonderwalls
My Jewel, you were meant for me so save my soul
Add seven Mary three plus 98 degrees
Eve 6 times 311, that's you and me
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Back in '99
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Our first dance
Ooh Ooh Ooh That's my jam
This blessed union of collective souls
Is the only world we know
This heart-shaped candlebox burns for you alone
You outta know
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Feelin' so sublime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Boy II Man
Ooh Ooh Ooh My pearl jam
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Back in '99
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Take my hand
Ooh Ooh Ooh Baby, you're my jam
I'm smashing pumpkins like it's November 1
Wish Britney'd hit me one more time on the phone
So tired of counting crows with Mr. Jones
My sister Hazel knows that it's all for you
Am I a blur or do you sing my song 2?
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Back in '99
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Our first dance
Ooh Ooh Ooh That's my jam
Jane's addicted and Alice is in chains
U2 like to move me in mysterious ways
We're chasing waterfalls and wonderwalls
My Jewel, you were meant for me so save my soul
Add seven Mary three plus 98 degrees
Eve 6 times 311, that's you and me
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Back in '99
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Our first dance
Ooh Ooh Ooh That's my jam
This blessed union of collective souls
Is the only world we know
This heart-shaped candlebox burns for you alone
You outta know
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Feelin' so sublime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Boy II Man
Ooh Ooh Ooh My pearl jam
Ooh Ooh Ooh Summertime
Ooh Ooh Ooh Back in '99
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooooooh Take my hand
Ooh Ooh Ooh Baby, you're my jam
