We Built This City
Starship
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:
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
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:
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street
police have got the chokehold, and we just lost the beat!
Who counts the money underneath the bar
Who rides the wreaking ball into our guitars
Don't tell us you need us, 'cos we're just simple fools
Looking for America, coming through your schools
(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge
on another gorgeous sunny Saturday and I'm seeing 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:
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Chorus:
We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll
(We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city) (repeats out)

We built this city, we built this city on rock an' roll Those are the lyrics? I though it was, 'We drank Fall City and Rockin Roll.'

BTW, that piece of garbage was actually written by Bernie Taubin, who is otherwise a pretty talented songwriter.
