Someday these will be familiar streets
All the half-built houses gone to homes, and you will know what no one teaches you
And I will say the kid needs learning
Hoping that I have some good advice
Something you could win with, something true
Not exactly sure just what I do
You think it's rock and roll or something
And I'll want to tell you that there's money in new wave
And that I hope you know I love you
We won't have to go over this again
Someday these will be familiar streets
All the young things turning in your head
Whistling through your life in ways that we would currently call science fiction
And I'll want to tell you that there's money in new wave
And I will deserve the blank stare
We won't have to go over it again
It's the breakout, it's brand-new, open wide
