  • The party's over, called it a night
    I hope you had the time of your life
    They say that rock will never survive
    It's up to youth to keep her alive
    And I don't know what's making you tick
    Generation narcissistic
    Little Miss Selfie, Lonely Boy Slick
    It's time you get a brand new fix, baby

    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Faster, faster, faster than the airwaves
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ

    We surfed until the end of the set
    Our leather jackets covered in sweat
    Those glory days, they ain't over yet
    So light that torch and burn like a jet
    'Cause revolution starts on the mic
    Strike three chords that cut like a knife
    Radio needs a shot to the vein
    Of anger, fury, heartache, and pain, baby

    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Faster, faster, faster than the airwaves
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ

    Someone said a long time ago
    Rock 'n' roll would never grow old
    She still got the fire left in her bones
    The lights go down, the crowd explodes

    Louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ

    Louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ
    Louder than the DJ

    Someone said a long time ago
    Rock 'n' roll would never grow old
    She still got the fire left in her bones
    And we're not gonna pack up and go cause we're

    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    She'll be back some day, I know, baby

    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ
    Faster, faster, faster than the airwaves
    Louder, louder, louder than the DJ

    Someone said a long time ago
    Rock 'n' roll would never grow old
    She still got the fire left in her bones
    The lights go down, the crowd explodes

    (Your momma's new car)
    Louder than the DJ
    (And Ian's guitar)
    Louder than the DJ
    (The band at the bar)
    Louder than the DJ
    (Never change who you are)
