Back in nineteen-eighty-nine,
My life was oh-so-fine.
I was ready to rock
with New Kids on the Block,
in all weather, rain or shine.
My life was oh-so-fine.
I was ready to rock
with New Kids on the Block,
in all weather, rain or shine.
Eighty-Six was a very good year.
The World Series brought Boston fear.
The Bambino's curse
Sent home Sox in hearse,
And New York shout a "METS!!" cheer.
Eighty-Two was a great year in song.
Michael Jackson could do no wrong.
Thriller and Beat It back to back,
The Gloved One was still black...
...But I guess it wouldn't be for long.
