Twisted Sister is an American heavy metal band from New York City popularized in comedic music videos on the television channel MTV in the 1980s. Although formed by guitar player Jay Jay French in 1973, all of their songs were written by the lead singer Dee Snider. They fused the shock tactics of Alice Cooperand W.A.S.P., the rebellious mood of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, the style of the New York Dolls, and the extravagant makeup of Kiss. Often misconceived as glam - the makeup and Dee's especially was more transformed into a horror creation, and the music is a lot more hard hitting, with less lyrics about sex, than glam rock. The group's hit songs include "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock".

You Can't Stop Rock & Roll Lyrics

Twisted Sister

HERE IT COMES, YOU'RE NEVER GONNA TOP IT
ON A RUN, NO WAY YOU CAN STOP IT
TOTAL STYLE, PERFECTION IN DECAY
RUNNING WILD, FLAT OUT ALL THE WAY
NOW YOU CAN RIDE IT HIGH
AND YOU CAN LIGHT THE WAY
LIFT UP YOUR HANDS IN PRAISE
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
LIKE A CHARGING BULL, IT'S A JUGGERNAUT
WITH STEAM AT FULL, NEVER TO BE CAUGHT
INCARNATE POWER, ROARING FROM THE SKY
WHILE OTHERS COWER, ROCK AIN'T GONNA DIE
NOW YOU CAN RIDE IT HIGH
AND YOU CAN LIGHT THE WAY
LIFT UP YOUR HANDS IN PRAISE
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
IT'S AN ANGRY STEED,
ON A NEVER ENDING COURSE
WITH GRACE AND SPEED
IT'S AN UNRELENTING FORCE
HIS HEAD THROWN BACK, DEFIANTLY PROUD
UNDER CONSTANT ATTACK,
IT'S BLASTING, FAST AND LOUD
NOW YOU CAN RIDE IT HIGH
AND YOU CAN LIGHT THE WAY
LIFT UP YOUR HANDS IN PRAISE
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
YOU CAN'T STOP ROCK 'N' ROLL
CAN'T STOP, CAN'T YOU STOP IT
CAN'T STOP YOU CAN'T STOP IT
CAN'T STOP, CAN'T YOU STOP IT
CAN'T STOP YOU CAN'T STOP IT
CAN'T STOP, CAN'T YOU STOP IT
CAN'T STOP YOU CAN'T STOP IT
CAN'T STOP, CAN'T YOU STOP IT
CAN'T STOP YOU CAN'T STOP IT
