The Corbomites - Record Store Lyrics




I want to go to the record store
Like the one they had back in '84
Dirty fingers flipping through the bins
A Flock of Seagulls - always made me grin

Not sure if it's the record store,
Or maybe just the time
I want to go to the record store
For my nineteen eighties high

Amoeba, Rebel Rebel, it was one of them
Everywhere, a guy named Glenn
Attitude and a translucent tan
Imaginary genius in a sad local band

Played bad tunes - Tried to be cool
He and his friends always ignored you
The OG hipster, smug as you thought
Had to critique everything you bought

I want to go to the record store
Oh, Look at that import from The Cure
Waiting in line for Springsteen Live
On Tuesday morning at quarter to five

Maybe video killed the radio star
But we still took a ride in Gary Numan's car
That's why I want to go to the record store
For the nineteen eighties high

Did you ever meet those guys
Who live in the past
Everything that they did
Was such a bigger blast

Lookin every Saturday for months on end
For an out of print record,
And you'd have to ask Glenn

Had a two minute song that would work out great
To put at the end of that awesome mix tape

Kids don't know the joy of buying tunes
On inferior mediums, from a guy who hates you
I said, a guy who hates you
Or selling albums back to City Lights
Using the money to buy our beer that night

Amoeba, Rebel Rebel, Camelot
Everybody look what Sam Goody's got
Coconuts, Tower, & Record shack
The 80's called & they want me back

Gotta say no to record store day
Needs to be real; what can I say?
I want to go to the record store
But those days are gone,
No matter what I'd pay

Did you ever meet those guys
Who live in the past
Everything that they did
Was such a bigger blast

I want to go to the record store
Like the one they had back in '84
Dirty fingers flipping through the bins
Kajagoogoo - made me grin again

Not sure if it's the record store,
Or maybe just feeling alive
I want to go to the record store
For my nineteen eighties high

I want to go to the record store
I want to go to the record store
I want to go to the record store
For my nineteen eighties high
