Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Turn it up
Turn it up

Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up

Came to here to smoke but the vibe here is a joke
Turn it up
We're doing our best, we have just one request
Turn it up

If the steam cook can take it
You better give us some more
Got to keep the people on the floor

Hey (Landlord)
Now what you want?
Could you please turn that up?

Bringing up the pleasure
But the music ain't there
Turn it up
The night is almost through
So what you gonna do?
Turn it up

If the steam cook can take it
You better give us some more
Got to keep the people on the floor

Young man could you please turn that up?
Turn it up
Turn it up
Turn it up

We know when you want it
We know when you need it babe, babe
And you wanna dance

We know when you want it
We know when you need it babe, babe
And you wanna dance

Turn it up

Turn it up
Turn it up
Turn it up
Turn it up

Please me, don't tease me
Just turn it to the max
Please me, don't tease me
Just turn it to the max
Please me, don't tease me
Just turn it to the max
Please me, don't tease me
Just turn it to the max

We support the wild life
So let's throw a party

Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up




Turn it, got to turn it up
Turn it, got to turn it up
