Kids in America

Lookin' out a dirty, old window

Outside, 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

Downtown, the young ones are goin'

Downtown, the young ones are growin'

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

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 leavin' now, honey, not a chance

Hotshot, give me no problems

Much later, baby, you'll be sayin' never mind

You know life is cruel, life is never kind

Kind hearts don't make a little story

Kind hearts don't grab a little glory

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

Everybody live for the music, go 'round

Come closer, honey, that's one thing

Got to get a brand new experience, feeling right

Oh, don't try to stop, baby, hold me tight

Outside, a new day is dawnin'

Outside, suburbia's sprawling everywhere

I don't want to go, baby

New York to East California

There's a new, it's comin', I warn ya

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

Everybody live for the music, go 'round

Whoa

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

We're the kids in America (Whoa)

Everybody live for the music, go 'round
