Joe Jackson - Kings Of The City lyrics

We were brought up in a boring town Watching our feet sink into the ground Never went up on a roof at night, oh no On top of the city To look at the lights Remember the TV was on all day With so much silence to chase away Now we sit up on the roof at night, you know And listen to sirens And neighbours who fight We're the A Team, the White Knights And we want it all We got the big dream And the bright lights But we don't see the stars anymore We don't see the stars We don't see the stars anymore We don't see the stars We were brought up with the smell of gra** Knowing that nobody had no cla** Sitting on top of a tower of steel, now I know That nobody's perfect And everything's real We're the A Team, the White Knights And we want it all We got the big dream And the bright lights But we don't see the stars anymore We don't see the stars We don't see the stars anymore We don't see the stars Come with me up on the roof tonight, you know We'll be kings of the city And look at the lights 'Cause we're the A Team, the White Knights And we want it all We got the big dream And the bright lights But we don't see the stars anymore We don't see the stars We don't see the stars anymore We don't see the stars We don't see the stars We don't see the stars
