Turn Up the Music Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Turn up the music 'cause this song just came on
Turn up the music if they try to turn us down
Turn up the music, can I hear it 'til the speakers blow?
Turn up the music, fill your cup and drink it down

[Pre-Chorus]
If you sexy and you know it, put your hands up in the air
Put your hands up in the air, girl, put your hands up

(Hands up, hands up, hands up)
If you sexy and you know it, put your hands up in the air
Put your hands up in the air, girl, put your hands up

[Chorus]
And turn up the music, just turn it up louder
Turn up the music, I need it in my life, yeah
Turn up the music, just turn it up louder
Turn up the music, I need it in my life, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (Hey!)
Woah-oh, woah-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Turn up the music 'cause the sun just came up
Turn up the music if they try to turn us down
Turn up the music 'cause I'm tryna hear the speakers blow
Turn up the music, fill your cup and drink it down

[Pre-Chorus]
If you sexy and you know it, put your hands up in the air (Hey, oh)
Put your hands up in the air, girl, put your hands up

(Hands up, hands up, hands up)
If you sexy and you know it, put your hands up in the air (Up in the air)
Put your hands up in the air, girl, put your hands up

[Chorus]
And turn up the music, just turn it up louder
Turn up the music, I need it in my life, yeah (I need it)

All I wanna do is party, so DJ, turn it up (Yeah!)
Girl, dance with me, just dance with me (Yeah!)
Girl, can I see that? (Oh!)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
