well, i particularly enjoy the fact that the song came out in 1979.
high school for me was in the 1970s.
the only line i like about that period comes from "dazed and confused"--a crappy film that i took as being crappy because it was pretty accurate in depicting what it was like to be in high school during that time---the line is:
"if you ever hear me saying that these were the best years of my life, just fucking shoot me."
