Turn It Up

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

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
