  • Do you want to get rocked?
    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked

    I'm your average ordinary everyday kid
    Happy to do nothin'
    In fact that's what I did
    I got a million ways to make my day
    But daddy don't agree
    'Cause when I try to get away
    He says he got plans for me
    Get your butt right out of bed
    Stop buggin' me
    Get up and move your sleepy head
    Don't shake my tree
    (He said mow the lawn) who me?
    (Walk the dog) not my style, man
    (Take out the trash) no way
    (Tidy your room) c'mon get real
    Sorry dad, gotta disappear
    Let's get the rock out of here

    Seven day weekend
    Up all night
    In at the deep end
    Hang on tight
    Won't take a minute
    It won't take long
    So get on in it
    Come on, c'mon, c'mon

    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Let's go all the way
    Get it night 'n' day
    C'mon let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked

    I'm your average ordinary everyday dude
    Drivin' with my baby
    To get her in the mood
    She's dialin' through my radio
    And I'm ready to make my move
    But what she got ain't rock 'n' roll
    And it really blew my groove
    It was Chopin, Mozart, Beethoven
    It makes me want to scream
    Bach, Tschaikovsky, violins
    Turn it off, that ain't my scene
    Well I'm sorry girl
    Here's my confession
    I suppose a rock's out of the question?

    Seven day weekend
    Up all night
    In at the deep end
    Hang on tight
    Won't take a minute
    It won't take long
    So get on in it
    Come on, c'mon, c'mon

    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Let's go all the way
    Get it night 'n' day
    C'mon let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked

    All I want to do is
    Take a ride into the blue
    Every time I want to love you
    I get stuck inside my room
    Heaven knows I'm sick 'n' tired
    Of dancin' with this broom

    I feel lucky today
    Hey look at that, man
    Do you want to get rocked?
    Do you want to get rocked?

    It won't take you a minute
    It won't take that long, yeah
    Get on, get with it
    Oh, c'mon everybody

    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Get on top baby
    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Do you want to, do you want to?
    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Get on top of it
    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Love to rock your body baby
    Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Let's go all the way
    Let's do it night 'n' day
    Let's get out and play
    Rock the night away
    C'mon let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
    Do you want to get rocked? Writer/s: COLLEN, ELLIOTT, LANGE, SAVAGE

  • Tani from Baton Rouge LaJodie, Mutt Lange was busy producing Bryan Adams album at the time and was unavailable.
  • Jodie from XxWhy didn't they get Mutt Lange to produce this album?
  • Kieran from Brisbane, AustraliaThis tune is also in the Mark Walhberg/Jennifer Anniston film Rockstar innit?
  • Kieran from Brisbane, AustraliaIts defo influenced by Prince that you can tell. Also, wasn't it inspired by The Simpsons in particular Bart? Think Joe Elliot has admitted this in past interviews. The story that the lyrics tell are also reminiscent of The Coasters 'Yakkty Yak'. Quite a range of different influences for such a basic song. Then again, that's the case with much of Def Leppards stuff.
