Kick It Out

The lyrics portray a vivid, unruly woman who moves through streets, a seaside town, and the beach with restless energy. The repeated call to “kick it out” and drive while still alive gives the song a celebratory push: it encourages movement, risk, and enjoying life in the moment. The mood is playful and excited, though the woman’s wildness also makes her seem hard to predict or approach.

Several images make that energy feel physical. Calling her a “filly” compares her to a young female horse, suggesting speed and independence; her “mane” extends the horse imagery. “Kick out your motor” sounds like a call to rev an engine, but it can also suggest releasing energy and breaking free. The sailors who “jump out of reach” hint that her presence is thrilling, perhaps even intimidating.

The lyrics mix freedom with a hint of danger. Phrases such as “half crazed” and “hard racy game of give and take” suggest someone who plays by her own rules and may not offer gentle, predictable affection. Yet these descriptions are part of the song’s exaggerated, lively style, so they need not be taken as a judgment of her character. The central invitation seems clear, while the exact meaning of “kick it out” remains open: it may mean letting loose, taking action, or simply joining the song’s rush.
