We're just fleas in lover's eyes
Steamboats, pretty bodies in the night
One of us might make it through
All the rest will disappear like dew
Pressure building, getting hot
Give it, give it, give it all you got
When that love explosion comes
My, oh my, we want to be someone
Try out for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Oh, we are a quarter billion strong
Try out for the human race
From twilight time to dawn
We just want to be someone
We're the future and the past
We're the only way it's gonna last
We're just pawns in funny games
Tiny actors in the oldest play
It's an angry scene we face
Just to get the chance to join the race
Gotta make it, gotta try
Gotta get the chance to live and die
Try out for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Oh, we are a quarter billion strong
Try out for the human race
From twilight time to dawn
We just want to be someone
We must, we must, we must, we must leave from here
We must, we must, we must, we must leave from here
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play, gotta get away
Gotta make our play
Let us out of here, let us out of here
Let us out of here, let us out of here
Let us out of here, let us out of here
Let us out of here, let us out of here
Let us out of here, let us out of here
We just want to feel the sun
Be a little daughter on your thumb
We're just words that lovers use
Words that light that automatic fuse
Still we're at the mercy of the passion
Of the helpers up above
When that love explosion comes
My, oh my, we want to be someone
Try out for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Oh, we are a quarter billion strong
Try out for the human race
From twilight time to dawn
We just want to be someone, anyone
Try out for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Oh, we are a quarter billion strong
Try out for the human race
From twilight time to dawn
We just want to be someone
We're just fleas in lover's eyes
Steamboats, pretty bodies in the night
One of us might make it through
All the rest will disappear like dew
Pressure building, getting hot
Give it, give it, give it all you got
When that love explosion comes
My, oh my, we want to be someone
Try out for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Oh, we are a quarter billion strong
Try out for the human race
From twilight time to dawn
We just want to be someone
Try out for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Oh, we are a quarter billion strong
Try out for the human race
From twilight time to dawn
We just want to be someone, anyone
Try out for the human race
From Burlington to Bonn
Oh, we are a quarter billion strong
Try out for the human race
From twilight time to dawn
We just want to be someone
