In The Nineties Songtext
von Sebastian Melmoth

In the Nineties
It was better in the Nineties
In the Nineties
We had Moomins, we had Twin Peaks
In the Nineties
We wore dolphins on our t-shirts in the Nineties

In the Nineties
We had Clinton in the White House
In the Nineties
We had Tony Blair and his big mouth
In the Nineties
You could still buy tapes at Our Price and dub LPs back at my house

In the Nineties
We had Pixies and Madonna
In the Nineties
Michael Jackson and Nirvana
In the Nineties
We had multicoloured Nikes in the Nineties


In the Nineties
I remember in the Nineties
How we partied in the Nineties
Life was simpler
Simply better

In the Nineties
You could still smoke in the Nineties
In the Nineties
Camel Blues and instant coffee
In the Nineties
One would gobble Es for breakfast and go raving in the forest

In the Nineties
The World Wide Web was slow and clunky
In the Nineties
Mobile phones were rare and pricey
In the Nineties
Magazine design was horrid, student living cheap, but squalid

In the Nineties
Refugees were kind of welcome
In the Nineties
Even skinheads stopped to feed them
In the Nineties
We tore walls down in the Nineties, and had Communists for tea


In the Nineties
I remember in the Nineties
How we partied in the Nineties
Life was simpler
Simply better
