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
Downtown the young ones are going
Downtown the young ones are growing

We're the Kids in America
We're the Kids in America
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 leaving now, honey
Not a chance
Hotshot!
Give me no problems.
Much later baby you'll be saying yeah 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 live for the music-go-round

na na nananana, na na nanana (Sing It!)
na na nananana, na na nanana

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 ya

We're the Kids in America
We're the Kids in America
Everybody live for the music-go-round

na na nananana, na na nanana (Sing It!)
na na nananana, na na nanana(x2)

We're the Kids,
We're the Kids,
We're the Kids in America! (x4)
