Kick It Out
Fury In The Slaughterhouse Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm just a lonely boy
Drinking to much liquor
Writing songs that no one wants to hear
I take my pictures from the wall and I paint them black
I close my eyes to see clear

I take my guitar and I kick it out of the window
I hope that the wind blows
And I'll never get it back

I buy myself a liquor store for my own
And then I drink it all alone
Baby, if you wanna follow me




You gotta know
That I never will let you go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Fury In The Slaughterhouse's song Kick It Out seem to be about a struggling musician who is disillusioned with his art. He feels lonely and drinks too much liquor, which perhaps causes him to have writer's block. He feels that the songs he writes are not appreciated and no one wants to hear them. He reflects on this by taking pictures from his wall and painting them black, as if he is erasing the past and trying to start anew. He believes that by closing his eyes, he can see more clearly and find inspiration.


The chorus of the song is powerful and seems to be a symbol of rebellion against himself and his inner struggles. The musician takes his guitar and "kicks it out of the window." He hopes that the wind will blow it away so he will never get it back. This seems to be an act of frustration and desperation. He's willing to give up his instrument and perhaps even music altogether, as he feels he is not making any progress or being appreciated. The verse that follows implies that he continues to drink alone and that he's not interested in any company. His final words to someone who wants to follow him are that he will never let them go, perhaps suggesting a fear of losing someone.

@ritterlecomedy-satire1740

Ein wahrhaft zauberhafter (Rock-)Song; und den habe ich stets gemocht. Punkt. 🙂

@silkelienesch4395

Mein erstes Konzert war im August 1991, seitdem bin ich ein großer Fan dieser Musik. Jedes Konzert war der Wahnsinn....

@simonknobel7601

1991 hat’s angefangen und nicht mehr aufgehört. Ich erinnere mich immer wieder gerne an ein Fury Konzert in Sarstedt auf ner Wiese. Da sind wir damals mit dem Fahrrad hingefahren, weil es praktisch nebenan war.
Was für eine schöne Zeit.

@marioschwarzhoff317

Irgendwann Anfang der 90er Time to wonder in der Kirchendisco. Was waren das für Zeiten 🤘🏻

@si7195

Live konnte ich euch das erste Mal in Altenbeken 1993 erleben. Unvergessen..Mit der Musik ist es ja bekanntlich wie mit der Liebe. Sie trifft einen wortlos mitten ins Herz..
