"Call the Shots" is a song by British-Irish girl group Girls Aloud from their fourth studio album, Tangled Up (2007). The song was written by Miranda Cooper, with inspiration from an article about the advance of women in business, and Brian Higgins, Tim Powell, Lisa Cowling, and Giselle Somerville also received songwriting credits. Polydor Records originally intended to release it as a single for The Sound of Girls Aloud: The Greatest Hits (2006); however, "Something Kinda Ooooh" was selected instead. In September 2007, "Call the Shots" leaked online, and on 26 November of the same year, it was released as the second single from Tangled Up through Fascination Records, a week after the album's release.

Lyrics

(Nadine)

Static tone on the phone, I`ll be breaking again

Must be something better, babe

All the names that you called out of bed seem to fade

(Sarah)

To sometime never planned

(Nadine)

I won`t cry for all the hunger in my heart, oh

(Sarah)

I won`t cry because I`ve made it through this far

(All)

Just coz you`re raising the bet and call the shots now on me, oooh

It really doesn`t phase me how you spend your time, oooh-oooh

Just coz you`re raising the bet and call the shots now on me, oooh

It really doesn`t phase me how you spend your time, oooh-oooh

(Cheryl)

Out of the fire that burns inside me

(Kimberley)

A phoenix is rising

(Cheryl)

If you don`t feel that you can love me

(Nicola)

I won`t shoot you down

(Nadine)

I won`t cry for all the hunger in my heart, no

(Sarah)

I won`t cry because I`ve stumbled through this far

(All)

Just coz you`re raising the bet and call the shots now on me, oooh

It really doesn`t phase me how you spend your time, oooh-oooh

Just coz you`re raising the bet and call the shots now on me, oooh

It really doesn`t phase me how you spend your time, oooh-oooh

(Nicola)

I`ve seen life burn bright, I`ve seen it shimmer

(Nadine)

Seen it shimmer

(Nicola)

They fade like starlight to a glimmer

(Nadine)

To a glimmer

(Nicola)

Oh, no

I`ve seen life flow by, like a river

(Nadine)

Like a river

(Nicola)

So full of twilight, dreams that glitter

(Nadine)

Dreams that glitter, glitter, glitter

(All)

Just coz you`re raising the bet and call the shots now on me, oooh

It really doesn`t phase me how you spend your time, oooh-oooh

Just coz you`re raising the bet and call the shots now on me, oooh

It really doesn`t phase me how you spend your time, oooh-oooh

(Chorus slowly fades)
