Lyrics:

… There's talk on the street

It sounds so familiar

Great expectations

Everybody's watching you

… People you meet

They all seem to know you

Even your old friends

Treat you like you're something new

… Johnny-come-lately

The new kid in town

Everybody loves you

So don't let them down

… You look in her eyes

The music begins to play

Hopeless romantics

Here we go again

… But after awhile

You're lookin' the other way

It's those restless hearts

That never mend

… Oh, Johnny-come-lately

The new kid in town

Will she still love you

When you're not around?

… There's so many things

You should have told her

But night after night

You're willing to hold her, just hold her

Tears on your shoulder

… There's talk on the street

It's there to remind you

That it doesn't really matter

Which side you're on

… You're walking away

And they're talking behind you

They will never forget you

Till somebody new comes along

… Where you been lately?

There's a new kid in town

Everybody loves him, don't they?

And he's holding her

And you're still around

… Oh, my, my

There's a new kid in town

Ooh, hoo

Just another new kid in town

Ooh, hoo

Songwriter:

… Everybody's talking 'bout

The new kid in town

Everybody's walking like

The new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

I don't want to hear it

There's a new kid in town

I don't want to hear it

There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

Everybody's talking

There's a new kid in town

People started walking

There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town

There's a new kid in town
