Lyrics:

Lookin out a dirty old window,
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by,
I see it here alone and I wonder why,
Friday night and everyone's moving.
I can feel the heat but its soothing heading down,
I search for the beat in this dirty town,
Downtown the young was are going,
Downtown the young ones are growing,

[Chorus:]
We're the kids in america, (woah)
We're the kids in america, (woah)
Everybody live for the music around,

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 chance,
Hot shot give me no problems,
Much later baby you'll be, saying 'nevermind,'
You know life is cruel,
Life is never
Kind hearts don't make a new story,
Kind hearts don't grab any glory,

[Chorus:]
We're the kids in america, (woah)
We're the kids in america, (woah)
(na na na na...)

Come closer honey thats better,
Gotta get a brand new experience feelin right,
Oh, don't try to stop baby hold me tight,
Outside a new day is dawning,
Outside suburbia crawling, everywhere,
I don't want to go baby,
New York to East California,
There's a new way comin i warn ya,

[Chorus:](2x)
We're the kids in america, (woah)
We're the kids in america, (woah)
Everybody live for the music around,
