Текст песни
Somewhere along the way, my dear
You've made an awful error
You oughtn't blame yourself now
Come along
You seem to think that people
Like people, what are clever
It's very quaint, it's very sweet
But wrong
People don't like smarty-pants
What go 'round claiming
That they know stuff we don't know
Now, here's a tip
What you know matters less
Than the volume with which
What you don't know's expressed
Content has never been less important
So you have got to be
Loud! (Loud, loud, loud)
Girl, you've got to learn to stand out
And stick out from the crowd (crowd, crowd, crowd) wee!
A little less flat
A lot more heel
A little less fact
A lot more feel
A little less brains
A lot more hair
A little less head
A lot more derrière
No one's going to tell you when to shake your tush well
You've got a light, don't hide it under a bushel
No one's going to look if you don't stand out
No one's going to listen if you don't shout
No one's going to care if you don't care
So go and put some highlights in your hair
'Cause you've gotta highlight what you've got
Even if what you've got is not a lot
You've gotta be loud (loud, loud, loud)
You've gotta give yourself a mission to shine
To stand out from the crowd (crowd, crowd, crowd) wee!
A little less bzz
A lot more zing
A little less pshh
A lot more schwang
A little less dressing like your mum
A little more bum-ba-bum-bum ba-da-bum
Oh, I look nice
You don't
No one's going to tell you when to wiggle your bum-ba
No one's going to love you if you don't know the rhumba
Everybody loves a little something exotic
But learning a language is over the top
It doesn't really matter if you don't know much
So long as you don't know it with the volume up
The less you have to sell, the harder you sell it
The less you have to say, the louder you yell it
The dumber the act, the bigger the confession
The less you have to show, the larger you dress it
You gotta get up
You gotta get up and be loud! (Loud, loud, loud, loud)
(Loud, loud, loud) woo!
You've got to be loud! (Loud, loud, loud)
Stand out from the crowd! (Crowd, crowd, crowd)
Or you're nothing
You've got to be loud! (Loud, loud, loud)
Stand up and be proud (proud, proud, proud)
Think you're clever? Whatever
Loud, loud, loud, loud
Loud, loud, loud, loud...
You've got to be loud!
