Jefferson Starship - We Built This City lyrics

rate me

Chorus:

We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

Say you don't know me, or recognize my face

Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place

Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight

Too many runaways eating up the night

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember

We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus

Someone's always playing corporation games

Who cares they're always changing corporation names

We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage

They call us irresponsible, write us off the page

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember

We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus

It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street

Police have got the choke hold, oh, [but] we just lost the beat

Who counts the money underneath the bar

Who rides the wrecking ball in two watt guitars

Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're [the ship of] fools

Looking for America, crawling through your schools

(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge

Out on another gorgeous sunny Saturday, I've seen that [bumper-to-bumper]traffic)

Don't you remember (remember)

(Here's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city

The city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps)

Marconi plays the mamba, listen to the radio, don't you remember

We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll

chorus repeats 2x

(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city)

(repeats out)
