Lyrics:

CHORUS We built this city we built this city on rock an' roll Built this city we built this city on rock an' roll Say you don't know me or recognize my face Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place Knee deep in the hoopla sinking in your fight Too many runaways eating up the night BRIDGE Marconi plays the mamba listen to the radio Don't you remember We built this city we built this city on rock an' roll REPEAT CHORUS Someone's always playing corporation games Who cares they're always changing corporation names We just want to dance here someone stole the stage They call us irresponsible write us off the page REPEAT BRIDGE REPEAT CHORUS It's just another Sunday in a tired old street Police have got the choke hold oh and we just lost the beat Who counts the money underneath the bar Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars Don't tell us you need us 'cos we're just simple fools Looking for America crawling through your schools (I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge Out on a gorgeous sunny Saturday I've seen that bumper-to-bumper traffic) Don't you remember (remember) (Here's your favorite radio station in your favorite radio city The city by the bay the city that rocks the city that never sleeps) REPEAT BRIDGE REPEAT CHORUS TWICE (We built we built this city) built this city (we built we built this city) REPEAT TO FADE
