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 treay 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

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 ´til somebody new comes along
where you been lately? there´s a new kid in town
everybody loves him, don´t they?
now he´s holding her, and you´re still around
oh, my, my
there´s a new kid in town
ooh, hoo
everybody´s talking ´bout the new kid in town
ooh, hoo
everybody´s walking´ like the new kid in town
there´s a 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
