Turn it up, turn it so loud
|
It don't ever stop
|
No no no no
|
Turn it up, makes me so proud
|
I believe in this feeling
|
|
Well you've lost all the things
|
That sharing could bring
|
Thought you were doing right
|
But violence and flames
|
And torches and chains
|
Are fuelling
|
These new northern lights
|
Like prisoners working
|
On infertile land
|
Took eight years
|
To find out the score
|
If you're sick then you're lonely
|
Out of work then you're hungry
|
The sentence is four years more
|
|
Turn it up, turn it so loud
|
It don't ever stop
|
No no no no
|
Turn it up, makes me so proud
|
I believe in this feeling
|
Turn it up, turn it up
|
Right up, right up
|
|
Who says poverty and race
|
Can be kept in their place
|
By keeping it
|
All underground
|
And ruling the country
|
Are unfaithful husbands
|
Who spank little boys
|
Gagged and bound
|
There's got to be a better way
|
For you and for me
|
To turn this hypocrisy round
|
The growth of a nation
|
Cannot be achieved
|
By keeping
|
The downtrodden down
|
|
Turn it up, turn it so loud
|
It don't ever stop
|
No no no no
|
Turn it up, makes me so proud
|
I believe in this feeling
|
Turn it up, turn it up
|
Right up, right up
|
