1981 * The year of my first saved for self bought 7" single

1981. Kids in America - Kim Wilde

Written by Ricky & Marty wilde

Looking out a dirty old window
Down below the cars in the
City go rushing byI sit here alone
And I wonder why
Friday night and everyone's moving
I can fell the heat
But it's shooting
Heading downI 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

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
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 sububia's sprawling everywhere
I don?t want to go baby
New york to east california
There?s a new wave coming I warn you

We?re the kids in america
We?re the kids in america


We?re the kids
We?re the kids
We?re the kids in america
