Just a band out of Boston, 1974
The local scene wasn't happening, and everything was a bore
Hangin' at the Rat, heckling the bands on stage
"We can do it better than that, we can rattle this cage"
CHORUS
Disco on the radio, and Aerosmith runs the town
The Kids were listenin' to Iggy
They were diggin' that, they were diggin' that Detroit sound
Rolling up into load in, nobody asked them to come
The Kids were impatient, they just wanted to have some fun
An industry convention, now The Kids were up on the stage
All Kindsa Girls were going wild and the crowd just went insane
CHORUS
Disco on the radio, and Aerosmith runs the town
The Kids were listenin' to Iggy
They were diggin' that, they were diggin' that Detroit sound
Opening for the New York Dolls, playing Taxi Boys real loud
The Kids were exploding, they could feel the love from the crowd
But nothing lasts forever, I'd rather burn out than fade away
Now The Kids are remembered, and their music is here to stay
CHORUS
Disco on the radio, and Aerosmith runs the town
The Kids were listenin' to Iggy
Now I'm diggin' that, I'm diggin' that Real Kids sound
