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 its soothing heading down,
I search for the beat in this dirty town,
Downtown the young ones are going,
Downtown the young ones are growing,
[Chorus:]
We´re the kids in america,
Wo0
We´re the kids in america,
Wo0
Everybody live for the music around,
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 "nevermind,"
You know life is cruel,
Life is never kind,
Kind hearts don´t make a new story,
Kind hearts don´t grab any glory,
[Chorus:]
We´re the kids in america,
Woo
We´re the kids in america,
Woo
Everybody live for the music around,
Come closer honey thats better,
Gotta get a brand new experience feelin right,
Oh, don´t try to stop baby hold me tight,
Outside a new day is dawning,
Outside suburbia´s crawling, everywhere,
I don´t want to go baby,
New York to East California,
There´s a new wave coming i warn ya,
[Chorus:]
We´re the kids in america,
Woo
We´re the kids in america,
Woo
Everybody live for the music around,
We´re the kids in america,
Woo
We´re the kids in america,
Woo
Everybody live for the music around,
