Turn It Up

Written by Ian Bairnson


It's no good believing in somebody else

If you can't believe in yourself

You give them the reason to take all the power and wealth

It's no good you trying to sit on the fence

And hope that the trouble will pass

'Cause sitting on fences can make you a pain in the ass


If there's something you find to believe in

Then the message must get through

So don't just sit in silence

When you know what to do


Turn it up. Turn it up, make it louder

Turn it up. Turn it up, make it louder


There's no conversation if nobody speaks

And nothing gets done in the end

There's no confrontation when fantasy makes you its friend

So much injustice, too many lies

We don't have to look very far

But nothing will change if we leave things the way that they are


Turn it up. Turn it up, make it louder

Turn it up. Turn it up, make it louder


If there's something you find to believe in

Then the message must get through

So don't just sit in silence

When you know what to do


Turn it up. Turn it up, make it louder

Turn it up. Turn it up, make it louder
