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
