Doa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to shout for joy
Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale
Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love to break your heart
Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
The lyrics to "Shout Out" by D.O.A. are about speaking out against injustice and standing up for oneself. The lyrics initially encourage listeners to shout out their frustrations and let them all out. The line "These are the things I can do without" refers to the negative experiences and circumstances that have brought pain and frustration to the singer. They then encourage listeners to stand up against those who would take advantage of them.
The second stanza takes a more political turn by referencing the idea of selling one's soul during "violent times" and dealing with "one track minds." The song acknowledges the struggles that one must endure if they don't follow what society expects of them. Kiss them goodbye suggests the idea of leaving behind negative forces in one's life. The chorus is repeated, emphasizing that these are the things that the singer doesn't need.
The third stanza is more philosophical in nature, suggesting that life is a two-way street. One should never have to give up who they are to satisfy the world. The lyrics describe how those who have been wronged are still alive and thriving, capable of "living to tell the tale." The song concludes by reiterating the song's message of standing up and letting it all out, empowering the listener to take control of their lives.

That took you for a working boy
Who saw you as just a worker

Your parents brought you into this world
And in return you gave them hell
You caused them trouble
As cold as ice
Heartless
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we survive and tell our story
And when you've taken down your guard
When you have let your defenses down
If I could change your mind
If I had the power to influence your thoughts
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love you to understand my perspective
