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 song "Shout" by Michie One talks about the struggle of living in a violent world and trying to maintain one's dignity and integrity. The song encourages people to stand up for themselves, to not sell their souls, and to not let others take advantage of them. The lyrics are simple, but they carry a strong message that everyone can relate to, which is why the song has remained popular over the years.
The first verse talks about how people shouldn't have to sell their souls in violent times. It is a call to action for people to stand up for themselves and not let others take advantage of them. The lyrics also mention the frustration of dealing with one track minded people who only see others as "working boys". The chorus repeats the message that the singer wishes people would "Shout" and let all their frustrations out as there are things in life we can do without.
The second verse emphasizes that people are just as cold as ice, and that it is vital to survive these times by keeping our wits about us, and hopefully, we shall live to tell the story. It offers a glimmer of hope for people who may feel powerless in a world that seems to be against them. The final verse reflects on how the world can make people put their guard down, and how the singer would love to break people's hearts in hopes of changing their minds.

I learned today that Louchie Lou's given name is "Louise Gold." I wonder if she changed it, in part, because of the English puppeteer by the same name?
