Kids in America
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 shooting
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
We're the kids in America
We're the kids in America
Everybody lives for the music-go-round
Bright lights the music is 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
We're the kids in America
We're the kids in America
Everybody lives for the music-go-round
la la la la la ect..
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 surburbias crawling everywhere
I don't want to go baby
New York to Southern California
There's a new wave coming I warned ya
We're the kids in America
We're the kids in America
Everybody lives for the music-go-round
la la la la la ect..
LETS GO!
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
(Till fade)
