Kids in America
Youthful Vibrance: Unraveling the Urban Symphony in 'Kids in America'
Lyrics
Looking out a dirty old window
Observing the world from a grimy window
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by
Watching cars rush through the city streets below
I sit here alone and I wonder why
Reflecting in solitude, pondering reasons for the situation
Friday night and everyone's moving
It's Friday night and everyone is active
I can feel the heat but it's soothing
Sensing the energy around, finding it comforting
Heading down, I search for the beat in this dirty town
Searching for the rhythm in this urban environment
Down town the young ones are going
Youthful individuals are heading downtown
Down town the young ones are growing
Growing and evolving in the downtown setting
We're the kids in America
Identifying with being the younger generation in America
We're the kids in America
Reiterating the identity as young people in America
Everybody live for the music-go-round
Everyone lives for the continuous cycle of music and entertainment
Bright ligths the music get faster
Intensity increases with bright lights as music escalates
Look boy, don't check on your watch, not another glance
Advising not to worry about time, fully immersed in the moment
I'm not leaving now, honey not a chance
Determined not to leave, showing commitment
Hot-shot, give me no problems
Confident request for no complications or issues
Much later baby you'll be saying never mind
Implying regrets might arise later, but disregarding them for now
You know life is cruel, life is never kind
Recognizing the harshness of life
Kind hearts don't make a new story
Emphasizing that kindness doesn’t often lead to recognition or success
Kind hearts don't grab any glory
Highlighting that kind-heartedness may not achieve acknowledgment or fame
We're the kids in America
Reaffirming the youthful identity within America
We're the kids in America
Reiterating being part of the younger generation in America
Everybody live for the music-go-round
Everyone is captivated by the ongoing music and entertainment
Come closer, honey that's better
Encouraging closeness for a better experience
Got to get a brand new experience
Seeking a fresh and unique encounter
Feeling right
Feeling content and aligned with the situation
Oh don't try to stop baby
Expressing the desire to continue without hindrance
Hold me tight
Asking for a tight embrace
Outside a new day is dawning
Noticing the beginning of a new day outside
Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere
Urban areas expanding, but reluctance to leave
I don't want to go baby
Expressing reluctance to depart
New York to East California
Referring to a vast geographical span within the country
There's a new wave coming I warn you
Forewarning of a new cultural movement or trend
We're the kids in America
Reaffirming youthful identity within America
We're the kids in America
Emphasizing the belongingness to the younger generation in America
Everybody live for the music-go-round
Everyone's existence revolves around the ongoing music and entertainment
We're the kids
Repetition emphasizing being part of the youthful populace
We're the kids
Continued emphasis on being part of the youthful population
We're the kids in America
Concluding repetition of the identification as youth in America
