An 80’s teen coming-of-age
film I’d like to view
Go to my DVD collection box set of John Hughes
Not in the mood for Weird Science or Pretty in Pink
Breakfast Club or Ferris Bueller no instead I think
I’ll watch Sixteen Candles. I think that would be fine
It’s the time of your life that may last a lifetime
From back when teen comedies weren’t crass and ribald
Just a sweet love story with Molly Ringwald
Sam’s family forgets her sixteenth birthday
She gets her sex quiz stolen and panties on display
Her big sister’s getting’ married later that week
She loves a hot senior but is stalked by a geek
|
In Sixteen Candles. And though Ted is a smarty
He and his friends try to crash the senior’s party
Ted has a bet to bed Samantha because when
You’re sixteen just anything can happen
Sam is saving herself for Jake Ryan
He finds out that she’s actually a virgin
Jake asked about her at the dance what will she do
He told her to make a wish but it already came true
Over Sixteen Candles they both share a kiss
Such a sweet loves story. John Hughes can’t miss
And can you believe I almost got through this whole song
Without even once mentioning Long Duk Dong
