Underalls - A 1978 retrospective

Underalls - A 1978 retrospective
(to be sung to the tune of Wonderwall by Oasis)

‘78 was gonna be the year
And it all comes back to me
By now I should've somehow
Figured out who I should’ve been
I wanna know there’s somebody that
Feels the way I do, about that now

Odd beat, disco in the street
And the fire only came from KISS
I'm sure you've heard it all before
And it’s a time that you don’t miss
I wanna know there’s somebody that
Feels the way I do, about that now

And all the time we spent record/rewinding
And writing down the words and memorizing
The things I wanted were a boyfriend
and to be Weird Al but I didn’t know how

‘cause maybe, 2012 can be the year that saves me
And after all, they wore Underalls

I said maybe, 2012 can be the year that saves me

I said maybe, 2012 can be the year that saves me

I said maybe, 2012 can be the year that saves me
2012 can be the year that saves me
2012 can be the year that saves me


P.S. If there is anyone out there who doesn’t remember 1978 or the Underalls that I do, here’s a good link.  This isn’t the exact same commercial for Underalls that I remember. This one ends with “because they make her look like I wish I looked.” Classic self-deprecating Pam Dawber.  The one I remember ended with a slinky bombshell whispering, “because they make me look like I’m not wearing anything.” Or maybe it was “not wearing nuthin’!” That would’ve been a double negative, but somehow I remember it that way.
