1983 Lyrics

I've been here lookin' dynamite
Alone against the wall
Girls like you give it all so cold

Talkin' cheap in a bathroom stall
Look so smooth
Better tell me the truth
Would you trade me
Out for someone cool?
I know you better than you do
So put out...

    I think this song is about a guy who wants attention from the girl he loves because the girl is no longer care about him. the girl chases other guy. so that the guy wants to go back to '1983' the time when the girl cares about him so much.

    This song is about the girl ignoring him and goingafter someone else because she thinks he's cooler, and the main guy doesn't think he should be ignored. The whole "1983" thing is that when you are first born you're never ignored, and he wants that same type of attention from her
