Academix - 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 whyFriday 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 goingDowntown the young ones are growing

We're the kids in America (whoa)
We're the kids in America (whoa)
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 chanceHot-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 storyKind hearts don't grab any glory

We're the kids in America (whoa)
We're the kids in America (whoa)
Everybody live for the music-go-round
La la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la la, sing!
La la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la la
Come closer, honey, that's better
Got to get a brand-new experience, feeling right
Oh, don't try to stop, baby, hold me tightOutside a new day is dawning
Outside suburbia's sprawling everywhere
I don't want to go, babyNew York to east California
There's a new wave coming, I warn ya

We're the kids in America (whoa)
We're the kids in America (whoa)
Everybody lives for the music-go-roundLa la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la la, sing!
La la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la laWe'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
