Another signal's silenced 

To please the corporate crowd 

They say the hip-hop's in now 

And rock is all played out 



Rock and roll where did you go? 

Are the airwaves empty? 

The volume's down can't hear a sound 

So why don't we… 



Turn it up 

Turn it up now 



Well tell me can you hear them 

And is it true what they say 

Have we let big business 

Take our music away 



Rock and roll how will we know 

You aren't just a memory? 

The volume's down can't hear a sound 

So why don't we… 



Turn it up 

Turn it up now 



Check one, Check two 

Check again there's nothing new 

The numbers on this dial have all but faded 

But we know, It's not you 

Rock and roll will be back soon 

The rumors of your death were overstated
