[Verse 1]

Well, there's a brand new century about to begin

And the kids of the 90's are paving the path

For the youth of America, free at last

From the violence and destruction that destroyed our name

Whenever there was trouble, we took the blame

But now our scene's alive with a new generation of American kids

[Chorus]

We worked hard, now let's enjoy the fruits of what we've done

Tomorrow may never come

The kids on the street will have their say now, because

[Verse 2]

We've had enough of these negative comparisons, a new breed of kids

Brought together by a movement and a sense of tradition

The strong will survive

And together our backs can never be broken

'Cause now our scene's alive

With a new generation of American kids

[Chorus]

We worked hard, now let's enjoy the fruits of what we've done

Tomorrow may never come

The kids on the street will have their say now, because

[Bridge]

You gotta live for today

The kids on the street are having their say

And this is our way

We're showing the world what we've become

Because we live for today

Kids on the street are having their say

And this is our way

We're showing the world what we've become

[Chorus]

We worked hard, now let's enjoy the fruits of what we've done

Tomorrow may never come

The kids on the street will have their say now, because

[Outro]

You gotta live for today

The kids on the street are having their say

And this is our way

We're showing the world what we've become

Because we live for today

Kids on the street are having their say

And this is our way

And now we're going strong
