Proclaimers, The - Shout Shout Lyrics






Correct me if you think that I'm mistaken
I wouldn't want to overstate my case
But while I'm the one bringing home the bacon
I've got a right to be heard around this place

You seem to think that life dealt you a bad deal
On the day we both pronounced the words "I do"
You yell at me for hours about what bugs you
Well that's a waste of time 'cos I can do that too

Shout shout don't leave a doubt
Smash up the place or throw things about
You won't change a thing by doing that
Rant rave pull out your hair
Turn on the tears, I still won't care
You don't move me an inch when you do that

I'm trying my best to be your husband
And a father to our little baby girl
And I'd rather rely on my own judgement
Than the vagaries and fashions of this world

If you wanted a doctor or a lawyer
You should have married one of them instead of me
Or some other guy who would ignore you
When he'd make a point and you would disagree

Shout shout don't leave a doubt
Smash up the place or throw things about
You won't change a thing by doing that
Rant rave pull out your hair
Turn on the tears, I still won't care
You don't move me an inch when doing that

And now I'll make my confessing
I love to row as much as you
But while it might be fun, in the long run
It's not going to change a thing we do

Again I make my confession
I love to row as much a you
But while it might be fun, in the long run
It's not going to change a thing we do

Shout shout don't leave a doubt
Smash up the place or throw things about
You won't change a thing by doing that
Rant rave pull out your hair
Turn on the tears, I still won't care
You don't move me an inch when you do that

Shout shout don't leave a doubt
Smash up the place or throw things about
You won't change a thing by doing that
Rant rave pull out your hair
Turn on the tears, I still won't care
You don't move me an inch when you do that

    I'm sure this song was written just for me...
    "... If you wanted a doctor or a lawyer you should have married one of them instead of me, or some other guy who would adore you, when he'd make a point and you would disagree..."

  2. F.... M....

    Excellent music composition hit hit

  3. J.... H....

    What a great song. And sorry to say when it comes to words. THEY are the TRUTH. In my case at least...

  4. M.... ....

    Hit The Highway was their best album, i think.

  5. x.... ....

  6. k.... ....

  7. M.... ....

    Come home boys..... h.h

  8. m.... ....

    This song and others like it allow me to freely abuse people around me, in particular - my mother.

  9. B.... G....

    After arguing with my fiance, I sent her a link to this song! She wasn't very amused at first but, now she likes The Proclaimers :D

  10. R.... W....

    On my channel you'll find live version of this amazing song. :) Hope you liked it.
    By the way, I love the song.

  11. P.... ....

    Their music reminds me of road-tripping through Nevada with some friends. This is a really refreshing song if you ask me.

  12. C.... B....

    R.... W....

    times three*

  15. C.... ....

    @conakzer naaaa, don't think that would add anything! lol

  16. c.... ....

    @BigCrookster what more do you need in a song? how about Cowbell

  17. C.... ....

    FUCKIN AWESOME! These guys are SO talented, crackin', catchy, upbeat melodies with witty and poignant lyrics, What more do you need in a song?

  18. V.... V....

    Class act - sure beats the crapola coming out of the USA these days.

  19. r.... ....

    i really hope charlie and craig go to hollywood and promote their catalog to the movie studios. this stuff is perfect for american film soundtracks.so upbeat and human.

  20. r.... ....

    thanks for the great post. what a great piece. be patient on the view count. these guys never got a lot of exposure and label promotion, plus their stuff is unusual. ive certainly never heard anything like it. its very rich in its own way. who mixes scottish folk, country, and blues with punk and rock? its so eclectic and unusual that it has a hard time in the mainstream. but lets face it, thats what makes so outstandingly great. thanks again killer clip.

  21. B.... ....

    @UntilYouFail IT'S OVER 9000!!!!!!
    XD

  22. U.... ....

    @BlueSilverStars Well, now it has OVER 9000!!! :3

  23. B.... ....

    This video needs more views than just over 8000. It's way too good of a song for that kind of pitiful view count

  24. T.... ....

    My favorite song of theirs! <3

  25. H.... L....

    wow very good!
