Loud

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)
 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 derriere
 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
 Oh, no-one's going to listen 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)
 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 bam-bam-bam ba-da-bum
 Oh, I look nice
 You don't!
 No-one's going to tell you when to wiggle your bam-ba
 No-one's going to love you if you don't know the rhumba
 Everyone loves a little something exotic
 But learning a language is over the top it
 It doesn't really matter if you don't know, know
 As long as you don't know it with a bitter clout
 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)
 You've gotta give yourself a mission to shine
 Stick out from the crowd (crowd, crowd, crowd)
 A little less...
 A little more...
 A little less...
 A little more...
 ♪
 No-one's gonna tell you when to "oh, oh, oh"
 No one's gonna show you when to "ah, ah, ah"
 If you want a little bit of "mm, mm, mm"
 You can't sit around going, "la, la, la"
 No one's gonna care if you don't care
 So go and put some highlights in your hair!
 'Cause you've got to highlight what you've got
 And what do you got?
 You gotta be loud (loud, loud, loud)
 You've gotta give yourself a mission to shine
 Stick out from the crowd (crowd, crowd, crowd)
 You so need a makeover!
 You gotta be loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud!
 Five, six, seven, eight

 Check out the footwork, Jennifer Littleton!
 I am the sultan of samba, baby, woo, yeah!
 ♪
 You gotta be loud (loud, loud, loud)
 Simply gorgeous!
 Stick out from the crowd (crowd, crowd, crowd)
 Are you listening?
 You've got to be loud (loud, loud, loud)
 Oooh!
 Stand out from the crowd, crowd, crowd
 Loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud, loud
 Ah, you gotta be Loud!
