Lyrics:

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 romantics
Here we go again

But after awhile
You're lookin' the other way
It's those restless hearts
That never mend

Oh, 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
Till somebody new comes along

Where you been lately?
There's a new kid in town
Everybody loves him, don't they?
And he's holding her
And you're still around

Oh, my, my
There's a new kid in town
Just another new kid in town

Ooh, hoo
Everybody's talking 'bout the new kid in town
Ooh, hoo
Everybody's talking 'bout the new kid in town

There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town
I don't want to hear it
There's a new kid in town
There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town
Everybody's 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
There's a new kid in town
