Kids in America

FOR MAXIMUM LEARNING EFFICIENCY



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 fell the heat
But it's shooting
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

[Chorus:]

We're the kids in America [x2]
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

[Chorus]

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 you

[Ch.]

We're the kids
We're the kids
We're the kids in America

Can't find bass, I'll probably just figure it out and post it.

It's super simple, I can help with that if you want.

I can probably figure it out pretty easily.

SHOULD WE PRACTICE TOMORROW? Tell your lady to bring a guitar too.

She can probably just use Adam's if she wants to.

Man that music video is poorly synced.

As long as it has the song /shrug

That's a cover, right?

WHy aren't you doing the digimon one?

Cause that one is a way worse version of the song and the video hardly has any digimon in it.

The main cover. Like...a cover in that TMBG's Istanbul is a cover.

Really? I know the original one. But that's really only because it was on the GTA Vice City soundtrack.

The cover in the OP is better than the original, imo.

Yeah. Absolutely. That's my point. Better and also WAY more well known.

Everyone else should have to know this exists.

Why would you do that D:

Man...they are studs.

You forgot the "WHOA-OH." That's only like the most important part.

You can do that part Victor.
