Lyrics
There’s talk on the street, it sounds so familiarGreat expectations, everybody’s watching you People you meet, they all seem to know you Even your old friends treat you like you’re something newJohnny-come-latelyThe new kid in town Everybody loves you So don’t let them downYou look in her eyes, the music begins to playHopeless romantics, here we go again But after a while, you’re lookin’ the other way It’s those restless hearts that never mendJohnny-come-latelyThe new kid in town Will she still love you When you’re not around?There’s so many things you should have told herBut night after night, you’re willing to hold her, just hold her Tears on your shoulderThere’s talk on the street, it’s there to remind youDoesn’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 alongWhere you been lately?There’s a new kid in town Everybody loves him, don’t they? He’s holding her and you’re still aroundOh, my, myThere’s a new kid in town Just another new kid in townEverybody’s talking ’bout the new kid in town (ooh-ooh)(Ooh-ooh) Everybody’s walking like the new kid in town (ooh-ooh)There’s a new kid in town (I don’t wanna hear it)There’s a new kid in town (I don’t wanna hear it, ah-ooh) There’s a new kid in town There’s a new kid in townThere’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 (mm-hm-mm) There’s a new kid in town (mm-hm-mm) There’s a new kid in town There’s a new kid in town
