1981

I found another letter
 This one was not much better
 From a girl so long ago
 A girl I used to know in Reno
 Yea things they kinda happened
 But I flunked her test or something
 Punk rock cured my misery
 She said it ruined her and me
 [Chorus:]
 Back in the day
 We played in 1981
 We and some fun way back in 1981
 She went away I stayed in 1981
 What's done is done
 I found in 1981
 I should explain the chorus
 There was no future for us
 She made life feel ok
 We hung out every day
 Then things got kinda creepy
 She started getting weepy
 Our things grew really odd
 As soon as she found God
 [Chorus]
 She moved to Sacramento
 Gave back all my mementos
 Stood there and watched her go
 Stayed with my band in Skeeno
 We tried to keep things friendly
 So hard when things have ended
 Punk rock blamed for our decline
 she said it ruined her and mine
 [Chorus]
