Kids in America 94 Songtext

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

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 music-go-round

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 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 (whoa)
We′re the kids in America (whoa)
Everybody live for the music-go-round

La la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la la (sing)
La la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la 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

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 music-go-round

La la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la la (sing)
La la la la-la la-a
La la la la-la 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

This song celebrating the youth of America was written by Wilde's brother Ricky and her father Marty. The Wilde family is from Chiswick, England, which might explain the questionable geography in the lyrics, as the line, "New York to East California" would most likely land you in the Mojave Desert - most songs celebrating California refer to the much more hospitable coastal areas.
