We're just a gleam in lover's eyes, steam on sweaty bodies in the night 
One of us might make it through, the rest will disappear like dew 
Pressure building, gettin' hot, give it, give it, give it all you got 
When that love explosion comes, my, oh my, we want to be someone 
 
[CHORUS] 
Tryouts for the human race, from Burlington to Bonn 
Ah, we are a quarter billion strong 
Tryouts for the human race, from twilight time 'til dawn 
We just want to be someone 
 
We're the future and the past, we're the only way you're gonna last 
We're just pawns in a funny game, tiny actors in the oldest play 
It's an angry sea we face, just to get the chance to join the race 
Gotta make it, gotta try, gotta get the chance to live and die 
 
[CHORUS] 
 
We must, we must, we must leave from here 
We must, we must, we must, we must leave from here 
Gotta make our play, gotta get away 
Gotta make our play, gotta get away 
Gotta make our play, gotta get away 
Gotta make our play 
Let us out of here, let us out of here, let us out of here 
 
We just want to feel the sun and be your little daughter or your son 
We're just words that lovers use, words that light that automatic fuse 
When that love explosion comes, my, oh my, we want to be someone 
 
[CHORUS]
