Turn Up That Dial

Open your eyes to the sound of the street

To the pounding of the metal like the 'Clampdown' beat

You're my inspiration, you got something to say

Now turn up that dial till it takes me away

These days can be dark, they're lonely and long

Thank God for the music that made me belong

That motivates and captivates my senses and soul

I was empty inside, but then you filled the hole

We took on the world with these songs in our ear

They told us to listen, but you were all we could hear

You were our sound, you were angry, loud and raw

They wrote the rules but you were the law

I have hope to share and I've got love to give

I have power and passion, a desire to live

Things are looking up, but sometimes I'm down

You're the message that moves me and turns me around

We took on the world with these songs in our ear

They told us to listen, but you were all we could hear

You were our sound, you were angry, loud and raw

They wrote the rules but you were the law

My escape, my solution, my savior, my friend

Three minutes of fury I wish wouldn't end

They feed us the lie, but we don't subscribe

To the horrors you preach, we rebel till we die

We're never ones to follow like lambs to the slaughter

We won't be your servants and we won't be your fodder

We'll never be your servants and we'll never be your fodder

We took on the world with these songs in our ear

They told us to listen, but you were all we could hear

You were our sound, you were angry, loud and raw

They wrote the rules but you were the law

They wrote the rules but you were the law
