Lyrics
Neighbour bangs on the wall again Mum yells down it's a school night, son Teacher says that I'm not trying But I learned three chords and I'm number one Landlord left me a note on the door Said keep it down or you're out by spring I wrote a song on the back of it And now it's the best thing that I sing Tell me to quiet down Tell me to wear a frown You can't turn down my amp, no you can't turn down my amp I'm gonna play it till the windows shake You can't turn down my amp, no you can't turn down my amp Hey! This is the noise that I'm gonna make Say it once and say it twice I won't be polite, I won't be nice You can't turn down my amp! Boss says smile and take the cash Says my hair is a bit too loud I said sir, I'm saving up For a bigger speaker and a bigger crowd Everybody's got a rule for me Stand up straight and don't make a fuss But the best things that I ever found Were in a garage with all of us Tell me to quiet down Tell me to wear a frown You can't turn down my amp, no you can't turn down my amp I'm gonna play it till the windows shake You can't turn down my amp, no you can't turn down my amp Hey! This is the noise that I'm gonna make Say it once and say it twice I won't be polite, I won't be nice You can't turn down my amp! Clap your hands if you've been told to hush Stomp your feet if you've been in a rush Raise your fist if you're still here Louder now, so they can hear You can't turn down my amp, no you can't turn down my amp I'm gonna play it till the windows shake You can't turn down my amp, no you can't turn down my amp Hey! This is the noise that I'm gonna make Say it once and say it twice I won't be polite, I won't be nice You can't turn down my amp!
