Sveistrup – 1988 lyrics

[Chorus]
Friday night fever
But I got here way too late
Friday night fever
And it's like I can't relate
Friday night fever
I hide behind my shades
Friday night fever
Wish it was 1988

[Verse]
Now it ain't every night I hit the city lights
Cause it takes half a week just to pay the price
I still got the power, I still got the moves
I’m not afraid to get into the groove

[Chorus]
Friday night fever
But I got here way too late
Friday night fever
And it's like I can't relate
Friday night fever
I hide behind my shades
Friday night fever
Wish it was 1988

Deep inside - I still feel the same
But now I see that everybody else around me changed
Oh that new jack swing still sounds good to me
On the urban scene I'm still longing for that beat

[Chorus]
Friday night fever
But I got here way too late
Friday night fever
And it's like I can't relate
Friday night fever
I hide behind my shades
Friday night fever
Wish it was 1988
Friday night fever
But I got here way too late
Friday night fever
And it's like I can't relate
Friday night fever
There's no way I'm getting laid
Friday night fever
Wish it was 1988

[verse]
Talkin' about
Nineteen eighty ee-eeight
Tonight
Talkin' about
Nineteen eighty ee-eeight
Alright

I can keep time in an oldschool rhyme
Cause the 2 and the 4 never go out of style
Let me take a beat from a funked up dream
And kick it with you here in twenty-eighteen
1 to the 9 to the 8 to the 8
Put your hands in the air and celebrate
Poppin' away like back in the day
Put your booty in the air and let it shake
1 to the 9 to the 8 to the 8
Put your hands in the air and celebrate
Poppin' away like back in the day
Put your booty in the air and let it shake
1 to the 9 to the 8 to the 8 …

[Chorus]
Friday night fever
I came to get my kicks
Friday night fever
To show `em my old tricks
Friday night fever
Gonna get back into the mix
Friday night fever
Like it was 1986

[Chorus]
Friday night fever
But I got here way too late
Friday night fever
And it's like I can't relate
Friday night fever
Now Im gonna change the game
Friday night fever
Like it was 1988

Talkin' about
Nineteen eighty ee-eeight
