That's when a smoke was a smoke
And groovin' was groovin'
And dancin' meant everything
We were young and we were improvin'
Laughin' laughin' with our friends
Holding hands meant somethin' baby
Outside the club "Cherry Bomb"
Our hearts were really pumpin'
Say yeah yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah yeah




Just noticed the lyrics I copied in had been changed from "that's when a smoke was a smoke " to "that's when a sport was a sport..". Seriously? :eek:

Do you remember the time, when Michael wasn't a creep and everyone loved him? We waited with baited breath for the world premier of his new videos. That's nostalgic in and of itself, but this one is specifically nostalgic.

Well, it can get you a PG-13 rating in a movie...

Wow, that's annoying revisionism. If someone's going to change the lyrics to "more acceptable," why not "that's when a joke was a joke"? At least it rhymes with the actual lyrics.

This one goes right for the nostalgia jugular, Christmas trees!!


When I was small and Christmas trees were tall
We used to love while others used to play
Don't ask me why, but time has passed us by

Someone else moved in from far away
Now we are tall and Christmas trees are small
And you don't ask the time of day
