Tipper says, I can't, while I say I can Better duck 'cause you know what just hit the fan 1984 in 1986 Putting us all in a terrible fix Rock 'n' roll don't carry no guns Rock 'n' roll never killed anyone We take no promises and none of your lip 'Cause we ain't about to lie down and quit Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud So turn it up loud Freedom of speech gives us the right to rock 'Cause we ain't about to turn back the clock To a brave new world void of all passion Where silence is golden and the latest of fashion Rock and roll was always meant to be Rock and roll we want it on TV You can't stop us with any of your laws 'Cause rockin' and rollin' is our fighting cause Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud Turn it up loud Hey, you know I got a good idea, I think we ought to write These people a nice long letter With a brick taped to it Would you help me throw it? 'Cause I feel, if it's too loud You're too old Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud Turn it up loud Turn it up - loud Don't turn it down Gonna stand proud - proud Turn it up loud
