Lyrics:

We built this city,
We built this city on rock an' roll

Say you don't know me, or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night

Marconi plays the mambo, Listen to the radio
Don't you remember?
We built this city, We built this city on rock and roll!

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Someone always playing corporation games
Who cares they're always changing corporation names
We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible, write us off the page

Marconi plays the mambo, Listen to the radio
Don't you remember?
We built this city, We built this city on rock and roll!

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

It's just another Sunday, in a tired old street
Police have got the choke hold, oh then we just lost the beat

Who counts the money ,underneath the bar
Who writes the wrecking ball in two wild guitars
Don't tell us you need us, 'cause we're just simple fools
Looking for America, coming through your schools

(I'm looking out over that Golden Gate Bridge
Out on another gorgeous Sunny Saturday,
noat seein' that bumper to bumper traffic,

Don't you remember (remember) ...

It's your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city,
The City by the Bay, the city that rocks, the city that never sleeps

Marconi plays the mambo, Listen to the radio -
Don't you remember?

We built this city, We built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

We built, we built this city yeah
We built this city
We built, we built this city
