Kids are cruising on the old shoreline
Goodbye-girls killing time
Feel like soldiers we couldn't wait
Running wild, rushing to our fate
* we kept dreaming, kids are dreaming
Sleeping rough out on brighton's beach
A step from the law just out of reach
** we kept dreaming, dreaming me and you
*** got a plan we couldn't blow
Nobody cares, nobody knows
Made a stand and played a show
Nobody cares, nobody knows
Hiding in the wrecks of burned out cars
Found a compass on the promenade
Gangs assemble in the old arcade
By looking cool we thought we had it made
* repeat
We ran wildly against the tide
Nothing much just our teenage pride
** repeat ***
Repeat
[instrumental]
Down the alleys to the old stage door
They heard the band coming through the floor
Eric burdon and the animals played
In our minds the impression's made
** repeat
*** repeat and fade mixing ** and ***
