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 (repeat)
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 live for the music-go-round

Bright lights the music gets faster
Look boy, don't check on your watch
Not another glance (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 live for the music-go-round

dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah dah

Come closer, honey that's better
Got to get a brand new experience
Feeling nice (repeat)
Oh don't try to stop baby

New York to California
There's a new wave coming we warn ya

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

dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah
dah dah dah
dah dah dah dah dah dah dah

We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America

We're the kids
We're the kids
k-k-k-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.
