Which was later re-recorded by Cyndi Lauper, who made the song a hit in 1984. This was followed in 1981 by demos of the songs "Escalator of Life" and "Change Reaction". These two songs received extensive radio airplay in Philadelphia. Around this time, Kurt Loder from Rolling Stone magazine chanced upon a performance by Robert Hazard and the Heroes at a Philadelphia club. Loder was so impressed by the band's show that he wrote a full page article about them in the November 1981 issue of Rolling Stone. In the article, he predicted that the "limousine life" could not be far away for this band from Philadelphia.
In 1982, Robert Hazard and the Heroes released their highly anticipated debut record. The self-produced and self-titled five song EP quickly sold over 300,000 copies in the Philadelphia area. Soon thereafter, the record caught the attention of the recording industry and the band was signed to an eight album deal by RCA. RCA released a remixed version of the EP nationally and Rolling Stone magazine gave the record four stars.
In late 1982, Robert Hazard removed The Heroes from the marquee and replaced two of The Heroes, John Lilley and Rob Miller with new band members. The band's new line-up performed "Change Reaction" and "Escalator of Life" on Dick Clark's American Bandstand TV show. Around this time, Cyndi Lauper recorded the '80's anthem "Girls Just Want To Have Fun". (See VH1 VJ talk about the song.) Her version was a huge hit, peaking at number 2 on the Billboard charts in 1984.
In 1984, Robert Hazard released his highly anticipated first full length album - "Wing of Fire." This album was intended to expand musically upon the song material that he had been playing live for the past few years. However, the production of the record suffered due to too much involvement from RCA management. Regardless, the record received an impressive advance order of 89,000 copies. Unfortunately, the record promotion was hampered by management changes at RCA, and sales stalled.
In 1986, Robert Hazard released another self-produced record titled "Darling." He named his revamped band the New Heroes.
[1991 Reunion]
In 1991, Robert Hazard and the Heroes reunited for a 10 year reunion concert at the now defunct Chestnut Cabaret on 38th Street in Philadelphia.
In 1998, Robert Hazard released the "Howl" CD, and began performing in the Philadelphia area with his new band, The Hombres.
In July 2002, Robert Hazard released a limited edition compilation CD, titled "Out of the Blue", that featured classic Hazard songs from the eighties. In the summer of 2003, after a five year hiatus, he returned to the studio and recorded "The Seventh Lake" CD which was produced by the T-Bone Wolk. In 2004, Robert Hazard recorded and released the "Blue Mountain" CD.
Robert Hazard died unexpectedly August 5, 2008 at age 59 after surgery for pancreatic cancer at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston.

They got my mazda in the E-Z Park It
At the rock & roll supermarket
Muzak music make me feel so funny
I went and spent all my money
We're riding on the escalator of life
We're shopping in the human mall
We're dancing on the escalator of life
Won't be happy 'til we have it all
We want it all
Escalator of life - "up and down"
Escalator of life - "round and round"
There's a hundred and eleven choices
Don't listen to those little voices
I don't let the guilty feeling shake me
You can have your cake and eat it baby
We're riding on the escalator of life
We're shopping in the human mall
We're dancing on the escalator of life
Won't be happy 'til we have it all
We want it all
Escalator of life - "up and down"
Escalator of life - "round and round"
"Huh..."
"Hey girl, I'm a personal friend of Gloria Vanderbilt"
"I got all the gold in the world around my neck"
"Come ride the steel dinosaur"
"Run wild in the jungle"
"Its a Zulu Nation"
"Seduction, sacrifice, a new sensation"
"Nothing ever changes..."
We're riding on the escalator of life
We're shopping in the human mall
We're dancing on the escalator of life
Won't be happy 'til we have it all
We want it all
Escalator of life - "up and down"
Escalator of life - "round and round"
We're riding on the escalator of life
Aouh, aouh, aouh...
@wareagle4789
When I was a teenager, we moved to the Philly suburbs and WMMR played this song constantly. Makes me miss the Morning Zoo days, Pierre Robert, Nick The Hotdog Man, and all those guys.
@aaronlevine8262
Same. Moved to Center City in 1980 when I was 13. Had completely forgotten about Robert Hazard and the Heroes until today. Reminds me of WMMR and of South Street, TLA, Pat's Cheesesteaks and The Hooters!
@gr8flyerfan
Pierre Robert is STILL at WMMR!
@djabstractnyc
I too miss the Morning Zoo. One of the reasons I hate Howard Stern.
@OldsVistaCruiser
I grew up in Willow Grove. I'm now friends with Michael Tearson.
@williamtruitt3346
Good times, best of times.
@Accam570
An underrated song. Robert Hazard wrote'Girls Just Want to Have Fun.'
@timnichols2906
When we're on the escalator at the Mall I sometimes start singing this song, and my children roll their eyes.
@dh1901
Ha, I thought I was the only one sang this song on the escalator. Great song
@manueltubens535
😂 lol that's funny 😂
