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
Down town the young ones are going
Down town the young ones are growing
We're the kids in america
Oh Oh
We're the kids in america
Oh Oh
Everybody live for the music-go-round
Bright lights the music gets faster
Look girl, don't check on your watch, not 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
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
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 in america
We're the kids in america
Everybody live for the music-go-round
