I like noise, that's why I'm livin' where I am, I like the noise and confusion of a traffic jam
I like the sound of a jet as it's shakin' my dwellin', I like ragin', rampagin' and screamin' and yellin'
Sound of a fire engine headed for a fire
Emotions so high they can't get any higher
Goin' out of control in an outta hand crowd
I like noise and it's gotta be loud
Awfully quiet
Awfully quiet
Awfully quiet
It was awfully quiet on the streets yesterday
People on the streets had little to say
Well I walked the streets and barely heard a sound
It was awfully quiet on the streets downtown
Sometimes quiet's okay, sometimes quiet's alright
Given the choice, I like noise, morning, noon, and night
♪
It was awfully quiet and on the trains last night
People on the trains kept the conversation light
I rode the trains and barely heard a word
Quietest train I ever heard
Sometimes quiet's okay, sometimes quiet's alright
Given the choice, I like noise, morning, noon, and night

Awfully quiet
Awfully quiet
Awfully quiet
It was awfully quiet and I needed some noise
I got on the blower called up the boys
I was doing so bad I could barely hack it
They came to my house and they kicked up a racket
Ooh ah
Ooh ah
They turned my place on its ear (ooh)
The boy's began to riot (ah)
It felt so good to hear (ooh)
On a day that was so quiet (ah)
I screamed and cheered them on (ooh)
And I helped out where I could (ah)
And when they all were gone (ooh)
I was feeling good
