Kicking Up A Racket Lyrics - Stiff Little Fingers

I sit and I don't make a sound 

While I watch the speakers pound 

And mum shouts up to turn it down 

'cause I'm waking up half the town 

But I don't hear a word that's said 

While the needles hit the red 

I'm just 

Kicking up a racket 

Kicking up a racket 

I don't smoke and I don't drink 

But like to see the max lights blink 

They say that they can't sleep a wink 

But I don't want to hear me think 

Life's no fun and life is dull 

Unless you turn the knobs up full 

I like 

Kicking up a racket 

Kicking up a racket 

I know a shop that sells 

All you need for decibels 

As long as what they got ain't quiet 

Spend every penny in trying to buy it 

I like electric toys 

I like making noise 

I love 

Kicking up a racket 

Kicking up a racket 

I don't care what mom don't allow 

Gonna play it my way anyhow 

Bashy tunes speak volumes 

Gimme a row, gimme a row, gimme a row 

Louder louder louder louder - 

Kicking up a racket 

Kicking up a racket 

So here I stand and in my hand 

This guitar is really the man 

As long as I can go blam blam 

Don't care if you can't hear the band 

Don't care what who else does 

Turn it up and feel the buzz 

Hear me 

Kicking up a racket 

Kicking up a racket 

Attack attack attack it 

It's a racket racket racket 

Kicking up a racket
