[Originally performed by Twisted Sister]



there ain't no way I'm gonna wait for Saturday night

I worked all day, I slaved away

I gotta set it right

gonna hit the streets, cruise around

I gotta find some action

ain't gonna stop until i drop or get some satisfaction!



gonna tear it, gonna tear it loose

gonna shout it from the roof

blast my way into the night

I'm gonna live my dream

shout and scream!

I'm gonna

tear it loose

come on now

tear it loose



I've been brutalized, computerized

punched in and punched out

now here comes the night and it just ain't right

to be shut in or shut out

so I'm breaking down the barricades

gonna slow the hands of time

cause to waste away the rest of the day

is such a fucking crime!



gonna tear it, gonna tear it loose

gonna shout it from the roof

blast my way into the night

I'm gonna live my dream

shout and scream!

I've got to

tear it loose

you've got to

tear it loose



I'll keep grabbin' hold of all the gold

in this old world of trash

long as there's light breakin' through the night

I'm never gonna crash

and if I'm down and out one day

I won't throw in the deuce

I'll just kick it out, thrash about

till i tear it loose, oh!

gonna tear it, gonna tear it loose

gonna shout it from the roof

blast my way into the night

I'm gonna live my dream

shout and scream!

we've got to

tear it loose

all right let's

tear it loose
