Kids In America Lyrics

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 feel the heat, but it's soothing
Heading down
I search for the beat in this dirty town

Down town the young ones are growing
Down town the young ones are going
We're the kids in America (whoa-o)
We're the kids in America (whoa-o)
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
I know life is cruel
Life is never kind

Now time to tell a new story
Now time to revel in glory
We're the kids in America (whoa-o)
We're the kids in America (whoa-o)
Everybody live for the music-go-round
Na-na-na-na-na-naa
Na-na-na-na-na-naa, hey
Na-na-na-na-na-naa
Na-na-na-na-na-naa
Na-na-na

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

From New York to southern California
There's a new wave coming, I warn you
We're the kids in America (whoa-o)
We're the kids in America (whoa-o)
Everybody live for the music-go-round
Na-na-na-na-na-naa
Na-na-na-na-na-naa, hey
Na-na-na-na-na-naa
Na-na-na-na-na-naa
Na-na-naa

We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America
