Crank It Up
Written by Glen Burtnik

Yeah

Hey, gets lonely on the boulevard
Dig me dancing with a broken heart
There are no demons in my mind tonight
I'm a rebel with a reason everybody knows

Crank it up

Breathe in, midnight in the promised land
I may never feel this way again
I've got a drummer in my heart right now
I'm a walking constellation and this moment is mine

Crank it up
Keep a light on me
Crank it up
Keep your eye on me

Who said "justice is a dreamers word"?
It's their world, yeah, but I got me a piece of it
They can do nothing to me now
Yeah cause maybe tomorrow, they'll own me again
But tonight I'm the king, I'm a self made man

Crank it up
Keep a light on me
Crank it up
Keep your eye on me
Crank it up
Keep a light on me
Yeah

This night belongs to me
This ain't no waste of time
I ain't no nickle dime
Tonight I walk awhile
Tonight I burn my file

There is no question in my heart tonight
I'm a serious contender
Yeah, and I wanna wake this city
I wanna shake this world

Crank it up
Keep a light on me
Crank it up
Keep your eye on me
Yeah
Crank it up
Keep a light on me
Crank it up
Keep your eye on me
Baby
Crank it up
Keep a light on me just keep a light on me
Yeah yeah yeah
Crank it up
Keep your eye on me
Keep it on me...
