[Verse 1] When the world starts to get you down And nothing seems to go your way And the noise of the maddening crowd Makes you feel like you're going to go insane There's a glow of a distant light Calling you to come outside To feel the wind on your face and your skin And it's here I begin my story [Chorus] Turn up the radio Turn up the radio Don't ask me where I wanna go We gotta turn up the radio [Verse 2] It was time that I opened my eyes I'm leaving the past behind Nothing's ever what it seems Including this time and this crazy scene I'm stuck like a moth to a flame I'm so tired of playing this game I don't know how I got to this state Let me out of my cage cause I'm dying [Chorus] (2x) Turn up the radio Turn up the radio Don't ask me where I wanna go We gotta turn up the radio [Bridge] I just want to get in my car
I wanna go fast and I gotta go far Don't ask me to explain how I feel Cause I don't want to say where I'm going Turn down the noise and turn up the volume Don't have a choice cause the temperature's pounding If leaving this place is the last thing I do Then I want to escape with a person just like you Buzzing around like a moth to a flame I'm so sick and tired of playing this game We gotta have fun if it's all that we do Got to shake up the system and break all the rules Got to turn up the radio until the speakers blow [Chorus] Turn up the radio Turn up the radio Don't ask me where I wanna go We gotta turn up the radio [Outro] Turn up the radio Turn up the radio There's something you don't need to know Just let me turn up the radio Turn up the radio Just let me turn up the radio Just let me turn up the radio
