lyrics

I'm blessed that I have such a knack to reminisce
Memories I often miss

Deja vu, I love you, Can I get some more
of that 2010
That's when I wrote Furniture in my livingroom
Let me write that record again

Today, I don't have a problem
It's fine and I'm freakin' awesome
I just live my life on repeat
Yesterdays, so bittersweet

Havin a hard time
Givin in to the times
Havin a rough time
Getting on with my life
Everything seems
Better as memory
So give me a Delorean
And send me back to that time

One might think I'm sick cuz I'm so nostalgic
With today I'm out of sync
Watch me dance in my MC Hammer pants
With my hair like Kidd and Play and my DJ Jazzy Jay
Obsessed with SNES and Sega Genesis
and watching Doug on Nickelodeon
I put Gak in my fanny pak
and my superoaker's filled with Crystal Pepsi

I swear I do this one thing all the time
I party like it's 1999
I live life for wrestling classics
Like Randy Savage...

Havin a hard time
Givin in to the times
Havin a rough time
Gettin on with my life
Everything seems
Better as memory
So give me a Delorean
And send me back to that time

Doc Brown, give me the keys
I promise I won't run into the other me
I won't let this time-space continuum collapse
I just want to see my past

The future's looking mighty grim
When everything before it is looking better than...
then

Deja Vu, I love you
