I don't get my kicks no more from cake or lemonade   Bud I can't get served no smokes or drinks   They tell me that I'm underage      At sixteen years old I don't stand a chance   but on Saturday when I get to the dance   It's time-out from life   Got to learn to boogaloo   'Cos I get my kicks from you      Summer's gone school's back I feel so black inside   Rules and regulations are a torture rack   Is there no place for me left to hide?      At sixteen years old things have gone too far   I wanna be a movie rocker soccer star   But when you're around I know you'll treat me good   I get my kicks from you      I dream of you at night   Do you really mean anything at all,   Or am I wasting my time on you?      Those other guys are so much cooler than me   I find it so hard to score   What's it really like to know a girl   My imagination's not enough I gotta know more      At sixteen years old I get frightened at night   Presented with the truth I'm afraid I take flight   But when you're around I know you'll treat me good   I get my kicks from you   I get my kicks from you
