Devo - Shout Lyrics






Shout, shout

I'm shoutin' about the world outside
I'm shoutin' because you just can't hide
I'm shoutin' from the plain honest truth
I'm shoutin', there's so much we could do

Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'
Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'
Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'
Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'

I'm shoutin' because it's hard to believe
I'm shoutin', it's so easy to see
I'm shoutin', we're waitin' for a reply
I'm shoutin' for the very last time

Shout, oh baby, this one's for you
Shout for everything that you do
Shout until the battle is won
Shout, we'll live to fight on and on

And when you add it all together
And when you roll it in a ball
And when you watch another pyramid
As it's about to fall

Remember you were there
Remember if you care
All those who held their ground
When it all came down

Said shout, shout

Shout, oh baby, this one's for you
Shout for everything that you do
Shout until the battle is won
Shout, we'll live to fight on and on

Shout, oh baby, this one's for you
Shout for everything that you do
Shout until the battle is won
Shout, we'll live to fight on and on

Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'
Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin', shout it out
Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'
Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin', shout it out

Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'
Shout, I'm shoutin', shoutin', shoutin'

Devo Shout Comments
  1. A.... O....

    Jerry said in a podcast that Mark's tinkering with sequencing a Fairchild workstation was really when the band lost it's pulse. I feel like this stuff was far too polished and if it wasn't for the further elaboration of the theory of devolution this wouldn't really be strong enough for an album track.

    A.... O....

    I'm not a fan of this track either, but I like the rest of Shout well enough. I actually tend to prefer some of their later albums - Oh No! is my favorite - but I agree that the production lets this one down.


    Only so much can be done for Total DEVO without rewriting the songs...

    A.... O....

    Mind sharing what podcast and episode that was?

  2. L.... W....

    Another song came out about this time....Named Shout
    Tears for Fears...Shout 1984 < ------- Made top 10 song in 25 countries
    Devo.....................Shout 1984 < ------- Don't think it ranked in the top 100- The album Shout topped at #87 < ----loved both songs when they came out
    **Devo's Album Shout got TRASHED by music critics < --------- IDIOTS! (using my Napoleon Dynamite voice)

  3. v.... f....

    Too good music

  4. T.... M....

    Sometimes i never get how this album flopped in ‘84 tbh

  5. P.... ....

    There's a part in the beginning of the song that reminds me a little of Jupiter: The Bringer of Jollity from the Planets by Holst.

  6. P.... W....

    classic devo....shared to the Netshows Radio "Program 90" Playlist on youtube

  7. F.... ....

    This song is kind of rad.

  8. k.... s....

    Did you now that all famous people are cloned believe me all of them are even those guys here playing in Devo just looking at there hands they look the some as if they come out of a clone moled

  9. m.... p....

    I cannot find my radiation suit.

  10. C.... W....

    Still, in 2017, light years ahead of anything else in music

    C.... W....

    ...And no less so now, just one month before 2019 rolls over into 2020, marking 48 years after DEVO came into being in 1972 (the 21st century, which seemed so far off when I was a boy in the 1970s, is already very nearly one-fifth over!).
