Lyrics:

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



We're the kids in America



Everbody lives for the music go round.



Bright lights

the music gets faster



Look boy

don't check on your watch not another glanc@

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

. . .



Come closer

honey

that's better



Got to get a brand new experience feeling right.

Oh

don't try to stop

baby

hold me tight.

Outside a new day is dawning



Outside surburbias sprawling everywhere.

I don't want to go

baby



New York to east California

There's a newwave coming

I warn you.



We're the kids in America

. . .



We're the kids

we're the kids



We're the kids in America . . .
