The song "Scream Who" by Hunters & Collectors explores the concept of walls having ears, symbolizing hidden surveillance and the invasion of privacy. The lyrics describe a paranoid and oppressive atmosphere where walls listen and secrets are exposed. The repeated phrase "lean your head to the wall" invites the listener to become aware of the lurking danger and the need for assistance. The chorus lines "Hear you, hear me, hear who? / Scream you, scream me, scream who? / Help you, help me, help who?" highlight the desperation and confusion in the face of this surveillance. The repetition emphasizes the urgency and the need for someone to speak up and take action. The line "And inside the mortar there's talk about" suggests that even within the confines of the walls, conversations and rumors circulate, adding to the paranoia and fear. The mention of "scared smells" may imply that the truth carries a certain fear or threat to those involved. Towards the end, the lyrics express disbelief and a sense of violation: "This can't be happening, this can't! / This can't be happening in the beauty of my home." It conveys the shock and disbelief of realizing that even within the supposed safety of one's own home, surveillance and intrusion can occur. "Scream Who" serves as a critique of a society where privacy is compromised and encourages listeners to question and challenge such invasion of personal space.
