Kids In America Lyrics

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
going.
Down town the young ones are growing.

Chorus:
We're the
kids in America. (2)
Everybody live for the music-go-round.

Bright
ligths the music get 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.

[Repeat Chorus.]

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.

[Repeat Chorus.]

We're the kids (3) in America.
