Lyrics

[00:00.00] We built this city
[00:03.42] We built this city on rock and roll
[00:06.61] Built this city
[00:10.00] We built this city on rock and roll
[00:19.68]
[00:29.83] Say you don't know me or recognize my face
[00:36.51] Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
[00:43.53] Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
[00:49.76] Too many runaways eating up the night
[00:56.31] Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio
[01:02.25] Don't you remember?
[01:04.74] We built this city
[01:07.93] We built this city on rock and roll
[01:13.00] We built this city
[01:16.48] We built this city on rock and roll
[01:19.92] Built this city
[01:23.08] We built this city on rock and roll
[01:34.94] Someone's always playing corporation games
[01:41.34] Who cares, they're always changing corporation names
[01:47.59] We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
[01:54.68] They call us irresponsible, write us off the page
[02:01.16] Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio
[02:07.21] Don't you remember?
[02:09.64] We built this city
[02:13.06] We built this city on rock and roll
[02:18.08] We built this city
[02:21.33] We built this city on rock and roll
[02:24.75] Built this city
[02:28.06] We built this city on rock and roll
[02:38.39] It's just another Sunday
[02:40.83] In a tired old street
[02:44.91] Police have got the choke hold, oh
[02:46.82] Then we just lost the beat
[02:55.00] Who counts the money underneath the bar?
[03:01.34] Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars?
[03:08.21] Don't tell us you need us 'cause we're the ship of fools
[03:14.89] Looking for America, coming through your schools
[03:21.79] (I'm looking out over that Golden Gate bridge on another gorgeous sunny Saturday and I'm seein' that bumper to bumper traffic.)
[03:27.47] Don't you remember? (remember)
[03:29.28] (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.)
[03:36.80] Marconi plays the mambo, listen to the radio
[03:42.19] Don't you remember?
[03:44.63] We built this city
[03:47.85] We built this city on rock and roll
[03:52.93] We built this city
[03:56.18] We built this city on rock and roll
[03:59.56] Built this city
[04:02.84] We built this city on rock and roll
[04:07.12] Built this city (oh)
[04:09.55] We built this city on rock and roll
[04:12.87] Built this city
[04:16.19] We built this city on rock and roll
[04:26.36] (We built, we built this city) built this city (we built, we built this city)
