There's talk on the street
it sounds so familiar
Great expectations
everybody's watching you
People you meet
they all seem to know you
Even your old friends
treat you like you're something new
Johnny come lately
The new kid in town
Everybody loves you
So don't let them down
You look in her eyes
the music begins to play
Hopeless romance
here we go again
But after a while
you're lookin' the other way
It's those restless hearts
that never mend
Johnny come lately
The new kid in town
Will she still love you
when you're not around?
There's so many things
you should have told her
But night after night
you're willing to hold her
Just hold her, tears on your shoulder
There's talk on the street
it's there to remind you
that it doesn't really matter
which side you're on
You're walking away
and they're talking behind you
They will never forget you
'til somebody new comes along
Where you've been lately?
There's a new kid in town
Everybody loves him, don't they?
Now he's holding her
and you're still around
Oh, my, my
There's a new kid in town
Ooh, hoo
Everybody's talking 'bout the new kid in town
Ooh, hoo
Everybody's walking like the new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
I don't wanna hear it
There's a new kid in town
I don't wanna hear it
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
Everybody is talking
There's a new kid in town
People started walking
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town
