Kids in America

[Verse 1]
Looking out a dirty old window
Down below, the cars in the city go rushing by (Rushing by)
I sit here alone and I wonder why (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

[Pre-Chorus]
Downtown, the young one's are going
Downtown, the young one's are growing

[Chorus]
We're the kids in America (Ho-oh)
We're the kids in America (Ho-oh)
Everybody live for the music-go-round

[Verse 2]
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 (Shot) give me no problems
Much later, baby, you'll be saying never mind
You know life is cruel, life is never kind

[Pre-Chorus]
Kind hearts don't make a new story
Kind hearts don't grab any glory

[Chorus]
We're the kids in America (Ho-oh)
We're the kids in America (Ho-oh)
Everybody lives for the music-go-round

[Post-Chorus]
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da (Round)
Da da da da da da
Da da da, d-d-da

[Verse 3]
Come closer, honey that's better
Got to get a brand new experience, feeling right (Feeling right)
Oh, don't try to stop, baby
New York to California
There's a new wave coming, we warn ya

[Chorus]
We're the kids in America (Ho-oh)
We're the kids in America (Ho-oh)
Everybody lives for the music-go-round

[Post-Chorus]
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da (Round)
Da da da da da da
Da da da, d-d-da

[Outro]
We're the kids, we're the kids, we're the kids in America
We're the kids, we're the kids, 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
