LYRICS:

Pre-intro/Intro:
        I wanna rock!
        I wanna rock!
        I want to rock!
        I wanna rock!

Verse 1:
        Turn it down you say, well all I got to say to you
        Is time and time again I say no!  (No!)
        No no, no no, no!
        Tell me not to play, well all I got to say that
        When you tell me not to play I say no!  (No!)
        No no, no no, no!

Pre-Chorus 1:
        So if you ask me why I like the way I play
        There's only one thing I can
        Say to you

Chorus:
        I wanna rock!  (Rock!)
        I wanna rock!  (Rock!)
        I want to rock!  (Rock!)
        I wanna rock!  (Rock!)

Verse 2:
        There's a feeling that I get from nothing else
        And there ain't nothing in the world that makes me go!  (Go!)
        Go go, go go, go!
        Turn the power up, I've waited for so long
        So I can hear my favorite song so let's go!  (Go!)
        Go go, go go, go!

Pre-Chorus 2:
        When it's like this I feel the music shooting through me
        There's nothing else that I would
        Rather do

Repeat Chorus.
