I thought I was the only person that ever heard of them outside of a couple of us in Gaithersburg HS: The Judys, Washarama http://www.thejudys.com/washarama.html

I was looking at my tape collection when I realized that the Judy's Washarama was gone, as was another 80s favorite: DI, Team Goon (Richard hung himself)

It occurs that the song "Guyana Punch" won't make sick to a generation of people who don't know anything about Jim Jones.

I have to sing the song
It's scary that something I never owned I remember the words to.

"When they were in Jr. High, never wanted to be with a guy
and now they're gonna graduate, won't date anyone under 28

Well they talk about their friends behind their backs,
and how so-and-so's dress looks like a sack,
they claw at each other day after day
oh I can't think of one good thing to say about

all the pretty girls, in high school...
all the pretty girls go yak yak yak yak (chorus)

And they all have ath-lete boy friends
and they all wear designer jeans
always putting on too much makeup
and the prom in their only dream
well they get in little corners and they talk about HER
they vote each other for a beauty queen
always seem to have extra lunch money
oh I can't seem to think about one good thing about

all the pretty girls, in high school...
all the pretty girls go yak yak yak yak (chorus)
all the pretty girls drive new Cadillacs...

and I say all the pretty, in high school, all the pretty girls, make me sick!"

Ah the days...funny how the song sounds like club kids? The only difference is the girls in the song are pretty, whereas the clubby kids do the same things but aren't.

"Watching my tv, watching my tv on the floor,
and all I get is static, when I turn on channel 4, on my tv!"
