Lyrics

[Verse 1] But we're just gleams in lovers' eyes; steam on sweaty bodies in the night The one of us might make it through, all the rest will disappear like dew Pressure building, gettin' hot; give it, give it, give it all you got When that love explosion comes; my oh my, we want to be someone [Chorus] Tryouts for the human race from Burlington to Bonn Ah, we are a quarter billion strong! Tryouts for the human race from twilight time til' dawn We just want to be someone [Verse 2] But we're the future and the past; we're the only way you're gonna last We're just pawns inna' funny game, tiny actors in the oldest play It's an angry sea we face, just to get the chance to join the race Gotta make it, gotta try; gotta get the chance to live n' die [Chorus] Tryouts for the human race from Burlington to Bonn Ah, we are a quarter billion strong! Tryouts for the human race from twilight time til' dawn We just want to be someone Tryouts for the human race from Burlington to Bonn Ah, we are a quarter billion strong! Tryouts for the human race from twilight time til' dawn We just want to be someone [Bridge] We must, we must, we must, we must leave from here (Doh-doh-doh-doo) We must, we must, we must, we must leave from here (Doh-doh-doh-doo) 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 (Ay-ooh) 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 [Verse 3] Well, we just want to feel the sun, and be your little daughter or your son We're just words that lovers use, the words that light that automatic fuse When that love explosion comes; my oh my, we want to be someone [Chorus] Tryouts for the human race from Burlington to Bonn Ah, we are a quarter billion strong! Tryouts for the human race from twilight time til' dawn We just want to be someone Tryouts for the human race from Burlington to Bonn Ah, we are a quarter billion strong! Tryouts for the human race from twilight time til' dawn We just want to be someone Tryouts for the human race from Burlington to Bonn Ah, we are a quarter billion strong! Tryouts for the human race from twilight time til' dawn We just want to be someone, anyone Tryouts for the human race from Burlington to Bonn Ah, we are a quarter billion strong! Tryouts for the human race from twilight time til' dawn...
