Kids In America Lyrics By Kim Wilde

    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

    pre
    downtown the young ones are going
    downtown the young ones are growing

    we’re the kids in america whoa
    we’re the kids in america whoa
    everybody live for the musicgoround

    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
    hotshot give me no problems
    much later baby you’ll be saying nevermind
    you know life is cruel life is never kind

    pre
    kind hearts don’t make a new story
    kind hearts don’t grab any glory

    we’re the kids in america whoa
    we’re the kids in america whoa
    everybody live for the musicgoround

    post
    la la la lala laa
    la la la lala la sing
    la la la lala laa
    la la la lala la

    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 suburbia’s sprawling everywhere
    i don’t want to go baby

    pre
    new york to east california
    there’s a new wave coming i warn ya

    we’re the kids in america whoa
    we’re the kids in america whoa
    everybody lives for the musicgoround

    post
    la la la lala laa
    la la la lala la sing
    la la la lala laa
    la la la lala la

    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
    we’re the kids
    we’re the kids in america
