Looking out a dirty old window Down below the cars in the City go rushing by I sit here alone And I wonder why
Friday night and everyone's moving I can fell the heat But it's soothing Heading down I search for the beat in this dirty town
Down town the young ones are going Down town the young ones are growing
Chorus :
We're the kids in America (x 2) Everybody live for the music-go-round
Bright lights the music gets faster Look boy, don't check on your watch Not another glance I'm not leaving now, honey not a chance
Hot-shot, give me no problems Much later baby you'll be saying never mind You know life is cruel, life is never kind
Kind hearts don't make a new story Kind hearts don't grab any glory
Ch.
Come closer, honey that's better Got to get a brand new experience Feeling right Oh don't try to stop baby Hold me tight
Outside a new day is dawning Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere I don't want to go baby New York to East California There's a new wave coming I warn you
Ch.
We're the kids We're the kids We're the kids in America
