Lyrics

We were apartment kids who played in parking lots
In hand-me-down clothes and home-cut hair
When we reached high school, rich kids drove slick cars
Us nobodies wouldn't go far

But tonight we could be somebodies
But tonight we could be somebodies

Janie across the hall, Marco on the third floor
We ran thick as thieves, we really tried to believe

That tonight we could be somebodies
That tonight we could be somebodies

We stole her brother's car, we drove all night long
We found the beach where we didn't belong
Breathing in ocean air, sea water at our feet
Looking in each other's eyes, faces bathed in moonlight
Cuz tonight we are somebodies
Cuz tonight we are somebodies
Yes we are, yes we are
Yes we are, yes we are
