Shake! Shake! Lyrics

I sold my soul so I could try
I'm standing at the picket line
And anyone that wants the fun now is the time

I'm calling out to you from the basement
I got a need to feel so I Shake! Shake!
You got a problem with me, say it
I couldn't care if we lose, no

She said I'm lost and out of love
I think it's more a case of no damn luck
Just like a gun just for the fun I set it off

I'm calling out to you from the basement
I got a need to feel so I Shake! Shake!
You got a problem with me, say it
I couldn't care if we lose

I'm calling out to you from the basement
I got a need to feel so I Shake! Shake!
You got a problem with me, say it
I couldn't care if we lose, no

Another poem to you from the bedroom
Into the streets I run from the classroom
I got a need to feel so I Shake! Shake!
I got a need to feel so I Shake! Shake!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
