Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Downtown, the young ones are going
Downtown, the young ones are growing
[Verse 3]
We're the kids in America (Whoa)
We're the kids in America (Whoa)
Everybody live for the music-go-round
[Verse 4]
Bright lights, the music gets faster
Look, boy, don't check 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...
[Verse 5]
Kind hearts don't make a new story
Kind hearts don't grab any glory
[Verse 6]
We're the kids in America (Whoa)
We're the kids in America (Whoa)
Everybody live for the music-go-round
[Verse 7]
Sha-la-la, la, la-la-la
Sha-la-la, la-la, la (Hey!)
Sha-la-la, la, la-la-la
Sha-la-la, la-la, la
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
New York to East California
There's a new wave coming, I warn ya
[Verse 10]
We're the kids in America (Whoa)
We're the kids in America (Whoa)
Everybody lives for the music-go-round
[Verse 11]
Sha-la-la, la, la-la-la
Sha-la-la, la-la, la (Hey!)
Sha-la-la, la, la-la-la
Sha-la-la, la-la, la
[Verse 12]
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
