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
    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
