Teenage Kicks
Remi Nicole Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every time he walks down the street
Another boy in the neighbourhood
Wish he was mine, he looks so good
Wanna hold him wanna hold him tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night, come on!
Call him over cos I'm all alone
I need excitment and I need it bad
Cos it's the best I've ever had
Wanna hold him wanna hold him tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night, come on!
Are teenage dreams so hard to beat?
Every time he walks down the street
Another boy in the neighbourhood
Wish he was mine, he looks so good
Wanna hold him wanna hold him tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night, come on!
Gonna call him on the telephone
Call him over cos I'm all alone
I need excitment and I need it bad
Cos it's the best I've ever had
Wanna hold him wanna hold him tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night, come on!
Wanna hold him wanna hold him tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night, come on!
