Looking out a dirty old window
Down below the cars in the
City [bad word] by
I sit here alone
And wonder why

Friday night and everyone's moving
I can fell 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 (x 2)
Everybody live for the music-go-round

Bright lights the music gets faster
Look kid, don't check on your watch
Not another glance
I'm not leaving now, no, honey, not a chance

Hot-shot, give me no problems
Much later baby you'll be saying never mind
You know life is [bad word]  life is never kind

Kind hearts dont make a new story
Kind hearts dont grab any glory

We're the kids in america (x 2)
Everybody live for the music-go-round
 [bad word] closer, honey that's better
Got to get a brand new experience
Feeling right
Oh don't try to stop me baby
Hold me tight

Outside a new day is dawning
Outside suburbias sprawling everywhere
I don't want to go
New york to east california
There's a new [bad word] I warn you

We're the kids in america (x 2)
Everybody live for the music-go-round

Na na na na na na (x3)

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

We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in america
