The end of the road, is lonesome and cold
Ain't no place for making a stand
I got too much of you on my mind
Too much time on my hands
Some people say there just ain't no way
We can hold on and see this thing thru
I don't care what they say
They never loved one like you
Shame, it comes in every size
Touches many lives
Knocks on many doors
Shame, I've seen it in your eyes
Hurt you with their lies
But words don't count at all
Because I don't care what they say
There ain't no shame in loving you
I remember the day that I drove you away
Lord that whistle gave a lonesome moan
The train that took you away
Is gonna bring you back home
And I'll be standing right there in the cold mornng air
When that train comes a rolling in
Knowing, once you're back in my arms
You won't be leaving again
Shame, it comes in every size
Touches many lives
Knocks on many doors
Shame, I've seen it in your eyes
They'll hurt you with their lies
But their words don't count at all
Because I don't care what they say
There ain't no shame in loving you
No, I don't care what they say
There ain't no shame in loving you
Me, I don't care what they say
I've done things God should've questioned
But I don't care.
I've seen things that made my flesh crawl
But I was young.
I've said things that you believed in
But I don't mean.
I heard things, one more confession that
Leaves me cold.
My picture ashames you
My picture
My picture ashames me
My picture
This ain't love, this ain't affection
But you don't care.
This ain't need, I'm not the fashion
So leave my heart.
So good God were you mistaken
Now will I burn?
No more lies no more distraction
So pay you back.
Religion ashames you
Religion
Religion ashames me
Religion
I'm lying shame on me
(secrets forever)
This disease shame on me
(secrets forever)
My memories shame on me
(secrets forever)
Abandon,abandon me
(secrets forever)
This fashion ashames you
This fashion
This passion ashames me
This passion
I'll never ashame you
I'll never ashamed me.
A stranger, shame on me
(secrets forever)
Nostalgia, shame on me
(secrets forever)
Religion, shame on me
(secrets forever)
Abandon, abandon me.
I've done things God should've questioned
But I don't care.
You're gonna walk on home
You're gonna walk alone
You're gonna see this through
Don't let them get to you
Shame
Love is good and love is kind
Love is drunk and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is drunk all the time
Shame
You're gonna walk on home
You're gonna walk alone
You're gonna walk so far
You're gonna wonder who you are
Shame
Love is good and love is kind
Love is good and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is good all the time
Well, there's three versions of this story
Mine and yours and then the truth
And we can put it down to circumstance
Our childhood, then our youth
Out of some sentimental gain I wanted you to feel my pain
But it came back return to sender
I read your mind and tried to call, my tears could fill the Albert Hall
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
Oh, what a shame
So I got busy throwing everybody
Underneath the bus, oh
And with your poster thirty foot high
At the back of Toys R Us
I wrote a letter in my mind, but the words were so unkind
About a man I can't remember
I don't recall the reasons why, I must have meant them at the time
Is this the sound of sweet surrender?
What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
And that's how they stay
Oh, what a shame
Words come easy
When they're true
Words come easy
When they're true
So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
And with your poster thirty foot high at the back of Toys R Us
Now we can put it down to circumstance
Our childhood, then our youth
What a shame we never listened
I told you through the television
And all that went away was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime this way
And that's how they stay
People spend a lifetime this way
Oh, what a shame
What a shame
Do you ever get that feeling
When the guilt begins to hurt
Seeing all the children
Wallowing in dirt
Crying out with hunger
Crying out in pain
At least the dirt will wash off
When it starts to rain
Soap won't wash away your shame
Do you ever get that feeling
That something isn't right
Seeling your brother's fists
Clenched ready for the fight
Soon the fighting turns to weapons
And the weapons turn to wounds
So the doctors stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch
Surgery won't improve your pain
It all seems so stupid
It makes me want to give up
But why should I give up
When it all seems so stupid
Do you ever get that feeling
That something can be done
To eradicate this problems
And make the people one
Do you ever get that feeling
Something like a nagging itch
And all the while the doctors
Stitch and stitch and stitch
And stitch and stitch
Hope alone won't remove the stains
[Funny Laugh]
It feels like I'm back again for the first time, If that makes any sense
(Something lol)
The good weeds lit, let's go
[ChorusÆ]
I got a couple sweets rolled with another O in a ziploc (O in a Ziploc) [Echo]
They see the pockets on swole how the lights hit the stones on the wrist watch (stones on the wrist watch)
Don't gotta ask who run it it's easy baby they know my name (they know my name)
All the cash we blow on some weed smoke they say bro it's a shame (bro it's a shame)
Boy you know it's a shame
Pop da smoke like pop out
And I'm pimp all the hoes call me papa
Gucci, Chuck Tays, I don't fuck with no prada
Fresh off the plane and I'm smoking like High time
It's better to be a star
NY I'm coping them weed jars
LA my hoes got medical weed cards
And my swagg through the roof
I hit the mall a boutique and tear down
See what I got on you want to wear it now
Think I'm a drink on her when she get tainted
Married to my money so she think I'm taken
She keep beggin me to creep
I heard your song I can do better in my sleep
All my niggaz rumble some bang better with the heat
Better keep the peace
There's Ink everywhere you see
And I only smoke good weed
Only where designer man
If I fuck with baby girl she gotta be a 9 or 10
Swaggg...
[Chorus]
Last night I made a bitch forget all about her man
The reason for them guts in your garbage can
I roll expensive spliffs
She fuckin me for free but for you she's one expensive bitch
Keep blowin up my sidekick knowing I'm at the studio
Another couple thousand everytime I do a show
That meanin I'm really eating
And everyday of my life is like the weekend
I wake up to good weed and new clothes
Go to sleep with more money and bad hoes
One of my 3 phones buzzin through my sleep
I know you heard of my name I'm buzzin all through the streets
YEAHHH... And I be with bosses
Get your shit togethor nigga or count your losses
And incase you ain't get the potrait
I'm a make it clear, Nigga it's STARYEAR... Swagg
Yeah Man, It shouldn't be no suprise for ya'll niggaz
Swisher sweet flickin'
[Funny Chuckle]
Chavo Chasin, Taylor Gang, Heavy Hustle
I don't need no rising moon
I don't need no ball and chain
I don't need anything but you
Such a shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame
Shame is the shadow of love
You changed my life
We were as green as grass
And I was hypnotized
From the first 'til the last
Kiss of shame, shame, shame
Shame is the shadow of love
I'd jump for you into the fire
I'd jump for you into the flame
Tried to go forward with my life
I just feel shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame
Shame is the shadow of love
If you tell a lie
I still would take the blame
If you pass me by
I FUCK yo' ass up! (fuck'em up son)
Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga
Wu buck wild with the trigger!
Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga
Yo, I FUCK yo' ass up!
(HUT ONE, HUT TWO, HUT THREE, HUT!)
S.O.A.D., live and uncut!

BLAOW! How you like me now? Don't fuck the style
Ruthless wild!

Wanna get on it like that, well then shout!
Lasers and blazers

You could never capture the Method Man's stature
For rhyme and for rapture, got niggaz resigning, now master
my style? Never! I put the fucking buck in the wild kid
Let's get together
(Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga
Wu buckwild with the tri-BLAOW!)
Brought like 20 white boys
in the back of a pick-up truck
with hockey pucks and skateboards
on their way to Woodstock
Leave home the glock
I have a gun the size of a blackhole
Shoot planets
Don't get credit
Throw your hands up in the air
Don't panic
Supreme arm leg leg arm head
Wu-Tang-Clan playin' the tightest long dreads.
(Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga
Wu buck wild with the trigger!
Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga
I'll FUCK YOUR ASS UP!)
I come with that ol' loco
Style from my vocal
Couldn't peep it with a pair of bi-focals
I'm no joker! Play me as a joker
Be on you like a house on fire! Smoke ya!
Crews be actin like they gangs, anyway
Be like, "Warriors! Come out and playiyay!"
Burn me, I get into shit, I let it out like diarrhea
Got burnt once, but that was only gonorrhea
Dirty, I keep shit stinks in my drawers
So I can get fzza-funky for yah
Murder, taste the flame of the Wu-Tang RAHH!
Here comes the Tiger verse Crane!
Ow, be like wild with my style
Punk! You playing me, chump, you get DUMPED
WU! Is comin THROUGH! At a theatre near YOU!
Seems like it was yesterday
When you went out the door
Seems that you ran away
From the fear inside your heart
You closed your fragile eyes
You cannot see the tears I cry for you
I never realized that everything has got to end
I try to understand what went wrong inside your heart
You hurt me deep inside
I cannot see the truth you hide from me
Shame within your eyes reminds me why I'm here
Your words can't bring me down 'cause you will never
feel what I feel
Pain inside my soul reminds me what you've done
Your world is standing still 'cause you will never see
what I see
'cause you will never feel what I feel
'cause you will never see what I see
I should be strong enough but I'm weaker than before
I will be free one day when you let go of my heart of
glass
I hope that it won't break 'cause it's not yet time for
me to die
I leave the past behind I don't look back on all my
dreams
And now I understand what went wrong inside your heart
The pain is blown away and now I see the truth you hide
from me
I see disloyalty in you
Can smell the perfume of betrayal
I'm feeling bad, my souls is bruised
I'm feeling dishonesty in you
I never thought that this is true but now I know what
love can do
Shame within your eyes reminds me why I'm here
Your words can't bring me down 'cause you will never
feel what I feel
Pain inside my soul reminds me what you've done
Your world is standing still 'cause you will never see
what I see
Shame within your eyes reminds me why I'm here
Your words can't bring me down 'cause you will never
feel what I feel
Pain inside my soul reminds me what you've done
Your world is standing still 'cause you will never see
what I see
'cause you will never feel what I feel
That's from the point of view of some old spider in New Orleans who throws all dignity to the wind in pursuit of some 19-year-old girl, with 19-year-old skin. I love the idea of the power that young, beautiful people have, the power to crush and maim and destroy. People with all the money in the world, all the power in the world - and some 19-year-old can rip 'em up. We can be made helpless. It amuses me enormously and yet, there's a nervous, painful quality to this song. It's a type of bad love, no doubt about it.
Who do you think are acting like fool,

Minutes, running down the drain
This is where our lives go
This is where we stay
In a job that really pays
So much like the first step
Maybe just a misstep
Maybe just a phase, just a phase
What am I supposed to do? [3x]
Take a Dramamine for nausea
Another pill for the broken bones
And the ringing in my head now
Sounds just like the telephone
So it's over-complicated
A shame so shoved aside
Like the broken years I've waited
And the emptiness inside
What am I supposed to do? [3x]
Take one more on the chin
Grow a somewhat thicker skin
Let the scars all fade away
Like the promise of today
And when the sky falls down
I hope you're still around
And everything keeps changing, but I won't be around!
opened up my eyes and saw the sky
over meadows where i lie
then i heard the children cry
in my sleep i saw a distant light
it arose and left in flight
then the shadows faded to white
in the night
Why should everybody have to pay?
shame on you, shame on me
is there any place to hide away?
blame it on humanity
Why should everybody have to pay?
shame on you, shame on me
will our children have a say?
field of sand exposed under the sun
where a river used to run
would it ever be undone?
hide the wounds that we tried to heal in time
with our power so divine
such an unforgiven crime
such a crime
Why should everybody have to pay?
shame on you, shame on me
is there any place to hide away?
blame it on humanity
Why should everybody have to pay?
shame on you, shame on me
will our children have a say?
are you ready?
it won't be long until we know
are you ready?
Why should everybody have to pay?
shame on you, shame on me
is there any place to hide away?
blame it on humanity
Why should everybody have to pay?
shame on you, shame on me
is there any place to hide away?
blame it on humanity
The citys burning with desire
High-heeled chicks turnin tricks in a trance
Pin-stripe zombies on fire
Sayin hey baby, heres a dime for a dance
(out on the street)
I see innocent faces in the rain
(out on the street)
I see make-up runnin down from tears of pain
Down the drain
Shame
Now mama tell it like it is
Its a shame
For what papa did
Its a shame
Your sister shouldve told you so
Its a shame
Cause nobody wants to know
The neon moon turns red around midnight
Junior junkies and runaway girls
Blue eyed babies posing in the headlights
Another stray cat in a dog eat dog world
(out on the street)
Aint no room for no cheap talkin prayer
(out on the street)
You don't know what it's like till you're there
And you're runnin scared
Shame
Now mama tell it like it is
Its a shame
The way papa hurt his kid
Its a shame
Your sister shouldve told you so
Its a shame
Cmon man let her go
So young
Yet so old
So hard to find a friend
She lives from lover to lover
Till there's nothing left of her
Yeah sweet daddy scores again
Shame
Now mama tell it like it is
Its a shame
The way papa hurt his kid
Its a shame
Your sister shouldve told you so
Its a shame
Cmon man let her go
The world shouldve let you know
Cmon man let her go
Shame on the school
Shame on the teacher
Shame on those sticky little fingers all over that helpless creature
Shame on the parish

From where he stands that man don't have half a chance to reach her
Shame shame shame
On me and you
Shame shame shame
Well I'm shamemeless when it comes to loving you
I'll do anything you want me to
I'll do anything at all
And I'm standing here for all the world to see
Oh baby that's what's left of me
Don't have very far to fall
You know now I'm not a man who's ever been
Insecure about the world I've been livin' in
I don't break easy I have my pride
But if you need to be satisfied
I'm shameless, oh honey I don't have a rpayer
Every time I see you standin' there
I go down upon my knees
And I'm changin' swore I'd never compromise
Oh but you convinced me otherwise
I'll do anything you please
You see in all my life I've never found
What I couldn't resist what I couldn't turn down
I could walk away from anyone I ever knew
But I can't walk away from you
I have never let anything have this much control over me
I work too hard to call my life my own
And I've made myself a world and it's worked so perfectly
But it's your world now I can't refuse
I've never had so much to lose
Oh I'm shameless
You know it should be easy for a man who's strong
To say he's sorry or admit when he's wrong
I've never lost anything I've ever missed
But I've never been in love like this
It's out of my hands
I'm shameless, I don't have the power now
I don't want it anyhow
So I got to let it go
Oh I'm shameless, shameless as a man can be
You make a total fool of me
I just wanted to you to know
Oh I'm shameless
I just wanted you to know
Oh I'm shameless
Is it dark yet outside?
I'm through hiding tonight
Take from the rest, your debt erased
Sleep with my curse and feel no shame
No shame
It might take you all night
But you'll love me with time
Take from the rest, your debt erased
Sleep with my curse and feel no shame
No shame
Take from the rest, your debt erased
Sleep with my curse and feel no shame
No shame
Is it dark yet outside?
I'm through hiding tonight
Take from the rest your debt erased
Sleep with my curse and feel no shame
No shame
Take from the rest your debt erased
Sleep with my curse and feel no shame
Talking about life, what it was 'n' what it's gonna be.
Get ready for the best time.
He's a friend of mine born in the '79
. 'n' there will be a day when he hears me when I say:
hey, you better be thinking about your future.
There will be a day when he hears me when I say:
you're spoiling your life, you won't have another.
You ain't thinking about your friends, do you hear me brother?
I have just one thing to say to you:
SHAME! (SHAME!) You can't fool me,
let me show that the whole thing sucks!
SHAME! (SHAME!) You can't rule me,
I'm saying no to the drugs!
Living is hard, sure I know,
but yet if you listen to my rule number on,
I bet positive attitude will carry you thru your life.
Think it thru before you take your first high.
One day you are a winner, next day you're a loser.
Don't spoil your changes by being user.
I have just another thing to say to you:
You can't fool me! You can't fool me!
I'm the king of the new generation?
The city's burning with desire
High-heeled chicks turnin' tricks in a trance
Pin-stripe zombies on fire
Sayin' hey baby, here's a dime for a dance

Now what are we goin' to do
No blacks, no whites, no Ku Klux Klan
Orientals, Mexicans
No guns, no bombs, national front
No greed, no hate, no government
No smog, no filth, no factories
No more cities to keep clean
No locks, no gates, no property
No states and no boundaries
No trends, no fads, no macho man
Stupid, idiot, cock-rock bands
No cops, no crimes, no jealousy
No laws, creeds, no one to please
I'm ashamed to be a human being
I'm ashamed to be a human being
Cause we've got the brains to stop all war
If there's one thing I know
Things are gonna change
There's gonna be a different ending
Though I'm not one to complain
But there's never been a right time
And we've never been too far
But you're the only single reason I know
That's holding back my heart
Take your kiss from my mouth
Take your heart from my heart
This will never happen again
You know that your promises
Won't last for one day
God knows it's a shame
But it's always the way
And the second time
Just wouldn't be the same
But you're changing with your faces and
You're gonna be lost again
If you're with or without me
I've made up my mind
Well I'm hpoping and praying
But you're running out of time
Take your kiss from my mouth
Take your heart from my heart
this will never happen again
You know that your promises
Won't last for one day
God knows it's a shame
But it's always the way
Take your kiss from my mouth
Take your heart from my heart
This will never happen again
You know that your promises
Won't last for one day
God knows it's a shame
But it's always the way
God know it's a shame
But it's always the way
God know it's a shame
But it's always, it's always the way
When the day is young,
And the laughs are thin
I stayed the night too long
And the colour grows upon my skin
Shame, shame, shame
All I feel is
Shame, shame, shame
All I feel is
Shame, shame, shame
All I feel is
Shame, shame, shame
Just pack and go and never return
When will I ever learn?
When will I ever learn?
Not to turn and stare
Not to turn and stare
Shame, shame, shame
All I feel is
Shame, shame, shame
All I feel is
Shame, shame, shame
All I feel is
You're gonna walk on home
You're gonna walk alone
You're gonna see this through
Don't let them get to you
Shame
Love is good and love is kind
Love is drunk and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is drunk all the time
Shame
You're gonna walk on home
You're gonna walk alone
You're gonna walk so far
You're gonna wonder who you are
Shame
Love is good and love is kind
Love is good and love is blind
Love is good and love is mine
Love is good all the time
Hello goodbye, you know you made us cry...
There's no myth or fable about the pimpin' at your label
What goes on under the table, why you think your deal is so unstable?
Now, whose the macaroni, A&R;'s acting phony
Once you make the matrimony, then he start to slackin' don't he
Or could it be the president that's being hesitant
Playin' his artist like a corner workin' specimen
And I ain't kidding you when I say it's political
The way they make a ridicule of artists can be pitiful
You know damn well there shouldn't be no company CO
Trying to show me about rap that's 53 or so
But yet and still they want to add advice, trying to keep their status right
When they should be working records for Gladys Knight
Who shape artists, man they catching rape charges
Once you sign on the dotted line, they lead you in the blind
Then you find, your state of revenue remains the same
Cause you getting less points than Steve Kerr be getting in a game
And just because it be too hardcore to judge it
They won't even touch it, and get to frontin' on the budget
When new artists come out, I can foresee the worst outcome
Cause everybody I know got beat their first album
So I took my contract to a lawyer so he can check it out (He don't know)
Then I took it to Dionne Warwick so she can read my hand (She don't know)
Chorus
It's a shame, when artists gotta deal with cheats
They got game, for every young rapper they see out on the streets
You sign your name, they get like Big Red on the Five Heartbeats
Now who the blame, when you starvin' and your record label eats
Verse 2
Preach brother
They say the truth will set you free, but I see signs of treachery
Go on perpetually, here's how they get you G
They use the tricks, just to juice your mix
But cross be in their heart like a vampire stabbed with a crucifix
I had the enemy in my vicinity with the false identity
Of a friend to me to injure me
They ride along just to guide you wrong
Play like they beside you strong, and start to faking moves like Olajuwon
Who side you on, revealing all that low down dirty dealing
I can see your skin peeling it changed like a chameleon
First you believe in them, but once you disagree with them
They try to get Magilla repertoire and that ain't even them
And all those who has betrayed, be fast to fade
Cause they cast a shade, with the masquerade
What's dealt, is low blows below the belt
Lord have mercy, I know how Julius Caesar must have felt
I start to think back when I was just a youth
I should have listened to the words of the God Born Truth
He said, "look out for black snakes they all up in your cypher
Black snakes you can't see therefore they sneak up and they bite ya'"
They get to flippin' cause they think you slippin'
So remember, don't get to slippin' cause they get to flippin'
And trippin', what's that you grippin', beside your hippin'
You think my heart is skippin', go save that game for Scottie Pippen
Chorus
It's a shame, to see how far left people be going
They got game, to think that all this time you said you know them
It ain't the same, Aah, so now you see the way they flowin'
Now who they blame, ain't nothing but a wolf in sheep's clothing
Verse 3
Now, wait a minute, I'm starting to see lotsa, hip-hop imposters
Is rap a category at the Oscars?
Too much Nino Brown up in your life
Cause since then, man I done seen Wesley Snipes playin' a drag queen
But yet and still you want to mimic the stars of cinema
Pretending huh? So full of it they need an enema
Cause see dig, they all like to talk big
But then they want to renege, when there's a curling iron in their wig
You talking loud and saying nothing, what's the world becoming?
The frontin', now pay attention you may learn something
Now, I ain't knocking you, but come on let's be logical
You know that it's impossible to stop the unstoppable
I would suggest that they, go back and check my resume
Cause tunes that I made yesterday, can hang out with the best today
Peace to Easy Mo, cause he makes the beats to flow
And I grab the microphone and flip it like pizza dough
Chorus
Shame
Now who the blame
I need to be the Mayor, so I can change the things around here
I wonder if you can see
I wonder if you can tell
I wonder if you see through the mask I wear so well
I'll never let you know what's going on inside me
My shame locks me down
All the things I wanted tell you
Are all the things I never will
Every time you reached out to me
All I did was push you away
I can't unchain the beast that screams inside me
I hate it, it's what I am
It makes me sick to be so mean
What I've been and what I've seen
From top to bottom, I am obscene
It stands in my place
It spits in my face
Shame
You smile I smile back
You ask me how I am I say I'm fine
I don't know why I'm so torn up inside my mind
The darkness swallows me whole
Don't go too deep, don't ask me why
Don't try to know me, don't make me lie
I wish I didn't know the things I know so well
I try to change but it's what I am
Okay so I was wrong about
My reasons for us fallin out
Of love I want to fall back in
My life is different now I swear
I know now what it means to care
About somebody other than myself
I know the things I said to you
They were untender and untrue
Id like to see those things undo
So if you could find it in your heart
To give a man a second start
I promise things wont end the same
Shame, boatloads of shame
Day after day, more of the same
Blame, please lift it off
Please take it off, please make it stop
Okay so I have read the mail
The stories people often tell
About us that we never knew
But their existence will float away
And just like every word they say
And we will hold hands as they fade
Shame, boatloads of shame
Day after day, more of the same
Blame, please lift it off
Please take it off, please make it stop
I felt so sure of everything
My love to you so well received
And I just strutted around your town
Knowing I didnt let you down
The truth be known, the truth be told
My heart was always fairly cold
Posing to be as warm as yours
My way of getting in your world
But now Im out and Ive had time
To look around and think
And sink into another world
Thats filled with guilt and overwhelming
Shame, boatloads of shame
Day after day, more of the same
Blame, please lift it off
Please take it off, please make it stop
And everyone they have a heart
And when they break and fall apart
And need somebodys helping hand
I used to say just let em fall
It wouldnt bother me at all
[Verse 1: Jill Scott]
I'm the one you really want, but you just can't see it

Uh! Aiyyo! I'm the magnificent with the sensational style
Yes! Check her head to toe don't forget the smile
Blessed! If you were smart you would try to snatch it up
Movin like a snail when you 'gon catch up?!
Be on it 'cause I'm bored laughin 'cause you just a clown now
Ain't worthy of the Queen papi bow down
Really bow out, how does that sound?
Had a chance in the past fall back now!

And I'm so good, how you so wack?

Shorty so live, from the 2-1-5
And you was too late now I'm sayin bye bye[Outro: Jill Scott]
And it's a shaaaaaaammmmmmmeeee!!!!

Your missin out, on me (WOOO!!!)
And it's a shaaaaaaammmmmmmeeee!!!! (SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!)

I walked in, all alone..
You knew my baby.., was back at home
Ooh the man's got somethin' on 'is mind
I told you that I'm not that kind o' girl
Blue jeans, faded leather
I.. was tryin', ta keep it together
So I kept right on walkin' by
But you just wouldn't take your eyes off o' me
Ya know just how ta break me down..
It's not too late to turn back now
Shame on you (shame) ya took me by surprise
Shame on me.., I never realized
Shame on you (shame) ya planned it from the start
Shame on me.., ya went straight for my heart
Shame on love...
Hot night, crowded room..
Making contact, in perfect tune..
Mmm a little touch, a little kiss
Could lead us to much more than this tonight..
An' now we're messin' where we shouldn' be
I let you got a hold on me...
Shame on you (shame) ya took me by surprise
Shame on me.., I never realized
Shame on you (shame) ya planned it from the start
Shame on me... ya went straight for my heart
Shame on love...
Shame on love..
You! took me by su'prise
Shame on me.., I never realized
Shame on you (shame) ya planned it from the start
Shame on me... ya went straight for my heart
Shame on you (shame) ya took me by su'prise
Shame on me, I never never realized
Shame on you (shame) ya planned it from the start

Shame on love...
Shame on love..
Shame on you (shame)
Shame on me
Ya know I'm not that kinda girl
(Shame)
Shame on me...
You (shame)
Talking about life, what it was 'n' what its gonna be.
Get ready for the best time.
He's a friend of mine born in the '79
'n' there will be a day when he hears me
When I say: hey, you better be thinking about your future.
There will be a day when he hears me
When I say: you're spoiling your life, you won't have another.
You ain' thinking about your friends, do you hear me brother?
I have just one thing to say to you:
SHAME! (SHAME!) You can't fool me,
Let me show you that the whole thing sucks!
SHAME! (SHAME!) You can't rule me,
I'm saying no to the drugs!
Living is hard, sure I know
But yet if you listen to my rule number one,
I bet positive attitude will carry you thru your life.
Think it thru before you take your first high.
One day you are a winner, next day you're a loser.
Don't spoil your chances by being a user.
I have just one thing to say to you:
You can't fool me! You can't fool me!
If you lead when you're standing
Every where you'd go you will bleed where you land and
Everyone will know
When you need a hand and surely you will know
It was me who was standing and filling for your show
'Cause I been seeing you and me in a space that can only grow
'Cause everyone knows
I gave you everything
You got the best of me
But hey hey what a shame
I was the only one
Who didn't know what you had done
So hey hey what a shame
'Cause all you ever do is blame
If you fall for illusions
Pause it on the frame
You can draw the conclusion
That everyone's the same
I was a fool from the get go
And you would think I'd see
All the things I should let go
I wonder if you can see
I wonder if you can tell
I wonder if you see through the mask I wear so well
I'll never let you know what's going on inside me
My shame, locks me down
All the things I wanted to tell you
are all the things I never will
ever time you reached down to me
all I did was put you away
I can't unchain the thing that screams inside me
I hate it, its what I am
It makes me sick a piece of me
Of what I've been and what I've seen
From top to bottom
I am obscene
you smile at me, I smile back
you ask me how I am
I tell you that I am fine
I don't know why I'm so torn up inside my mind, the darkness, it swallows me hole
It makes me sick a piece of me
Of what I've been and what I've seen
From top to bottom
I am obscene
it stands in my place
it spits in my face
its shame shame
its shame
at least I don't lie
at least I don't lie
I look at myself and say "man you doing just fine, you're doing great"
I'm not liv'in in a lie
not liv'in in a lie
Or am I?
It makes me sick a piece of me
Of what I've been and what I've seen
From top to bottom
I am obscene
it stands in my place
it spits in my face
its shaaaaaaaaaaame
Don' go to deep
don't ask me why
don't try to know me
don't make me lie
I wish I didn't know the things I don't know well
I'm trying to change, but its what I am
It makes me sick a piece of me
Of what I've been and what I've seen
From top to bottom
I am obscene
it stands in my place
it spits in my face
its shame shame
its shame shame
Not liven in a lie
am I?
I'm Not liv'in in a lie
am I?
(Lyrics by Brecht)
No blacks, no whites, no Ku Klux Klan
Orientals, Mexicans
No guns, no bombs, national front
No greed, no hate, no government
No smog, no filth, no factories
No more cities to keep clean
No locks, no gates, no property
No states and no boundaries
No trends, no fads, no macho man
Stupid, idiot, cock-rock bands
No cops, no crimes, no jealousy
No laws, creeds, no one to please
I'm ashamed to be a human being
I'm ashamed to be a human being
Cause we've got the brains to stop all war
But we're rotten to the core
All that lies and turned up eyes
Stares like they're to blame
It seems as though you're trying to control
but you can't trick me this way
Shame, hey, I wont play your game,
Hey, they're driving me away,
Hey, I wont fall for your actions of deceit,
driven by your misery and shame
Gestures of kindness manipulate for your benefits
Acting like you're unaware but it's hard not to miss
Off hand comments fill my head with things I can't explain,
silent sneers and crocodile tears, rolling down the drain
Shame, hey, I wont play your game,
Hey, they're driving me away,
Hey, I wont fall for your actions of deceit,
driven by your misery and shame
Yeah I try, not to let it shows, as this felling in my grows
Subtil words twist the knife with the things that they don't say,
don't want to feel this way I won't feel this way
I won't feel your shame
there are not words to speak of
there are not words to say
there are not songs to sing on
news days like today
there's only time to carry
these darkest doubts away
there's only hope to cling to
on days like today
should hang our heads in shame
what we've done in god's name
should hang our heads in shame
only ourselves to blame
there are not dreams or feelings
that could seem to convey
there are not songs to sing on
news days like today
should hang our heads in shame
what we've done in god's name
should hang our heads in shame
only ourselves to blame
maybe I'm naive, I still believe in peace
(David Clark Allen)
It doesn't matter what you say,
I don't believe you anyway,
Talking love is easy when it's new.
Slow down don't move so fast,
This feeling may not last,
I've been wrong before, haven't you?
Don't cry to me, if it's just a fantasy,
Shame, shame on you,
You should know better than to play with a heart that's true.
Shame, shame on you,
You should know better than to do the things you do.
Shame, shame on you.
It doesn't matter what you say,
I can't believe you anyway,
The only thing that counts is what you do.
Think twice before you leave,
This is real, not make believe,
The answer lies with you.
So go with her, if your body's sure,
Shame, shame on you,
You should know better than to play with a heart that's true.
Shame, shame on you,
You should know better than to do the things you do.
Shame, shame on you.
You're wasting my life,
Play with hers,
Someone's gonna lose,
Yes, I know who that is.
Shame, shame on you,
You should know better than to play with a heart that's true.
Oh shame, shame on you,
You should know better than to do the things you do.
Shame, such a shame, such a shame, shame on you,
Shame, such a shame, such a shame, shame on you,
I've been living so long in a very short time
Who knows my face, who knows my name
they are changing almost day by day
and all I've got comes down in shame
I'm getting closer slippin' to the darkest side
How soon the party's gonna end
I'm getting closer slidin' out of the day
fallin' faster with every coin I spend
Shame
The time is flying with growing sense of decay
and I keep telling myself it's okay
I've been drowning with booze and dirty women
found no salvation, my head keeps on swimming
I'm getting closer slippin' to the darkest side
The wreckage is already in sight
I'm getting closer slidin' out of the day
Somehow I gotta find more will to fight
Shame
Ooh, it's sucking me in
the more I fight, the more it grips
Ooh, it's sucking me in
Another Day, Another Fight, Another Tear,
And We Don' T Seem To Talk Anymore.
And I Don' T Know If We Get To See Another Year,
Coz When I Opened You Closed Every Door.
Girl You Used To Be The One,
But The Trust Went Apart,
When You Messed With My Heart.
Over I Got To Know That You,
Coz I Saw That Kiss Goodnight,
When He Tracked You Home And Fighted.
It' S Such A Shame,
You Don' T Appreciate,
It' S A Shame To Say We' Re Through,
No More Crying Over You,
Ain' T It A Shame,
Just Like The Seasons Change,
Girl The Sun Just Don' T Shine Anymore,
Some Other Day, Some Other Night, Some Other Week,
Baby I Won' T Think Of You Anymore,
But At Times I Wish That I Could Bring You Back To Me.
And I Told You The Same As Before,
Girl You Used To Be The One,
But The Trust Went Apart,
When You Messed With My Heart.
Over I Got To Know That You,
Coz I Saw That Kiss Goodnight,
When He Tracked You Home And Fighted.
It' S Such A Shame,
You Don' T Appreciate,
It' S A Shame To Say We' Re Through,
No More Crying Over You,
Ain' T It A Shame,
Just Like The Seasons Change,
Girl The Sun Just Don' T Shine Anymore,
Is It Really Lovin'
Is It Really Somethin'
Or Was It Over Nothin'
But Because We Just Let It Fall Apart,
Or Was It Over From The Start, Girl.
Coz Any Way That I Go Girl,
You Go We Won' T Go.
And Everything I See, Girl I See You Don' T Go,
It' S Such A Shame,
You Don' T Appreciate,
It' S A Shame To Say We' Re Through,
No More Crying Over You,
Ain' T It A Shame,
Just Like The Seasons Change,
Girl The Sun Just Don' T Shine Anymore,
Girl You Used To Be The One,
But The Trust Went Apart,
When You Messed With My Heart.
Over I Got To Know That You,
Coz I Saw That Kiss Goodnight,
When He Tracked You Home And Fighted.
It' S Such A Shame,
You Don' T Appreciate,
It' S A Shame To Say We' Re Through,
No More Crying Over You,
Ain' T It A Shame,
Just Like The Seasons Change,
Girl The Sun Just Don' T Shine Anymore
I felt bad but there was nothing I could do about it
Nothing I could do to make it go away
I felt bad but there was nothing I could do to change it
Nothing I could do to make things change
This is my shame
This is my shame
I felt bad but I keep trying to kid myself about it
Trying to tell myself it was an honest mistake
I felt bad but what's done is done
Just one thing remains
This is my shame
This is my shame
I know your mad at me
I know you want to cut my throat
I know you think I think it's all a joke
I don't, I don't
I felt bad but there was nothing I could do about it
Nothing I could do to make it go away, I woke up and thought
Every thing's going to be alright, every thing's going to be okay
Then it hit me like a wave, then it hit me like a wave
This is my shame
This is my shame
All that lies and turned up eyes
Stares like they're to blame
It seems as though you're trying to control
but you can't trick me this way
Shame, hey, I wont play your game,
Hey, they're driving me away,
Hey, I wont fall for your actions of deceit,
driven by your misery and shame
Gestures of kindness manipulate for your benefits
Acting like you're unaware but it's hard not to miss
Off hand comments fill my head with things I can't explain,
silent sneers and crocodile tears, rolling down the drain
Shame, hey, I wont play your game,
Hey, they're driving me away,
Hey, I wont fall for your actions of deceit,
driven by your misery and shame
Yeah I try, not to let it shows, as this felling in my grows
Subtil words twist the knife with the things that they don't say,
don't want to feel this way I won't feel this way
I don't need no rising moon
I don't need no ball and chain
I don't need anything with you
Such a shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame
Shame is the shadow of love
You changed my life
We were as green as grass
And I was hypnotized
From the first 'til the last
Kiss of shame, shame, shame
Shame is the shadow of love
I'd jump for you into the fire
I'd jump for you into the flame
Tried to go forward with my life
I just feel shame, shame, shame
Shame, shame, shame
Shame is the shadow of love
If you tell a lie
I still would take the blame
If you pass me by
It's such a shame, shame, shame
When the day is young,
And the laughs are thin,
I stayed the night too long,
And the colour grows upon my skin,
Shame , shame , shame ,
All I feel is,
Shame, shame, shame,
All I feel is,
Shame, shame, shame,
All I feel is,
Shame, shame, shame,
Just pack and go and never return,
When will I ever learn ?
When will I ever learn ?
Not to turn and stare,
Not to turn and stare,
Shame , shame , shame ,
All I feel is,
Shame, shame, shame,
All I feel is,
Shame, shame, shame,
All I feel is,
Shame, shame, shame, .............
Feels like yesterday since the took my lust away
Nothing really matters anyway
Bloodsucker her name, she's envy wrapped in
a frame
Affection 's no guarantee, say hello to my best friend
Mrs Jealousy
She will never ever be the one that I want
She will never ever be the one that I adore
She will never ever be the one
CHORUS:
Shame
Baptized by jailousy
Shame
It will always, always be the same
Shame
Handcuffed by misery
Shame
It will always, always be the same
Her legs are always crossed cuz she's taught to keep
them crossed
The new sensation, sexual gratification
Let me hear the sound of my smite when I land on your
thigh
No shame on me, it's up to you
Let the redness be my point of wiew
She will never ever be the one that I want
She will never ever be the one that I adore
She will never ever be the one
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, should've opened up my heart
Well, there you go in the wrong direction
Here I am right, where I've always been
Typical, I'm missing my connection again, again
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, should've opened up my heart
Yeah, you were right within my reach, something
Any other fool could see, shame, shame, shame on me
I found my nerve, guess where it was hiding
Crumpled up underneath the kitchen sink
A little late, I didn't read the writing
I read a romance novel instead
Now, I can't get you out of my head, oh no, no
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, should've opened up my heart
Yeah, you were right within my reach, something
Any other fool could see, shame, shame, shame on me
Your lips, your fingertips, your sun-kissed hair
I see the pieces of you everywhere, you're everywhere
Shame, shame, shame, should've let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, shoulda let it go too far
Shame, shame, shame, I should've opened up my heart
Yeah, you were right within my reach, something
Any other fool could see, shame, shame, shame on me
Should've let it go too far, shame, shame, shame
Iç£e been down too many times
I canç£ feel my bones
Iç£e been down all the time
I would not even feel
If a train came crushin?into my soul
Donç£ blow me away
Sometimes I need some piece of mind
Shakinç£ike a dog left behind
Sometimes I get so sick of it all
I would not even feel
If a train came crushin?into my soul
Shame, shame you blew me away
I donç£ need no sister to cry for me
I need someone to please
But I donç£ need to go down in flames
I canç£ get my feet on the ground
Jumping around with the devil in my vein
Some motherfucker tried to hold me down with love and chains
I would not feel
If a train came crushin?into my soul
Shame, shame you blew me away
I donç£ need no brother to cry for me
`Cause I need someone to please
But I donç£ need to go down in flames
You like to see when I fly down below
Why donç£ you borrow my eyes so you can see what I see
What I see
What I see
What I see
Now, look what youç£e done
Itç£ a shame, shame you blew me away
I donç£ need no sister to cry for me
I need someone to please
But I donç£ need to go down in flames
Shame you blew me away
I donç£ need no brother to cry for me
`Cause I need someone to please
But I donç£ need, no, I donç£ need...
Itç£ not the end of the world when the sun goes down
Rise and shine, people, and realise the shocking truth
You all need some resurrection
To rise up the thin road of secret action
And, now get this into your head
Diesel and power, a truck, a church of love
Where the priest is gasoline and the devil is behind the wheel
Try to break this psycho circus on steel
Iç£ born to lose, born to ride
And this is how we all look
No trespassing and no way back
This is a one-way, motherfuckin? track
So do you wanna come with me, bitch
If there's one thing I know
Things are gonna change
There's gonna be a different ending
Though I'm not one to complain
But there's never been a right time
And we've never been too far
But you're the only single thing I know
That's holding back my heart
Take your kiss from my mouth
Take your heart from my heart
This will never happen again
You know that your promises
Won't last for one day
God knows it's a shame
But it's always the way
And the second time
Just wouldn't be the same
But you're changing with your faces
And you're gonna be lost again
If you're with or without me
I've made up my mind
Well, I'm hoping and praying
But you're running out of time
Take your kiss from my mouth
Take your heart from my heart
This will never happen again
You know that your promises
Won't last for one day
God knows it's a shame
But it's always the way
Take your kiss from my mouth
Take your heart from my heart
This will never happen again
You know that your promises
Won't last for one day
God knows it's a shame
But it's always the way
God knows it's a shame
But it's always the way
Oh, God knows it's a shame
But it's always, it's always the way
God knows it's a shame
What we learned here is love tastes bitter when it's gone
Past yourself forget the light, things look dirty when it's on
Funny how it comes to pass, that all the good slips away
And there's no one around you can remember being good to
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
And open up more
Shame, shame, shame
What we lost here is something better left alone
Second steps have been forgotten, will you tell me how
They go
Set yourself, situate, like a fool try again
There's no one around you can remember being good, for you
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
And open up more
Shame, shame, shame
Shame, shouldn't try you, couldn't step by you
And open up more
Shame, shame, shame
We never thought we'd get so troubled
We could never think that much
It should never get this bad
So let the wind blow ya, across a big floor
But there's no one around who can tell us what we're here
Funny in a certain light, how we all look the same
And there's no one in life you can remember ever stood
Shame
Now there's a lifestyle
With painted lips
Now there's a lifestyle
Everybody wants it
But it don't exist and I said
"Shame
In the dance halls and the cinema
Shame
On the TV and the media
Shame
We loved you"
Shame
In the dance halls and the cinema
Shame
On the TV and the media
Shame
We loved you
Now there's a lifestyle
With fashion chic
Now there's a lifestyle
Everybody in it wants to be elite
And I said, "You with your brand new shoes and
You with your greasy hair and
You with your mother's pride and poetry
Don't you want to feel the
Shame?"
In the dance halls
Can't you feel the shame?
And the TV
Can't you feel the shame?
We loved you, oh
Shame
In the dance halls and the cinema
Shame
On the TV and the media
Shame
We loved you
Shame
At the Lido and the opera
Shame
At the races and the theater
Shame
We loved you
And they said all we need is love
Shame
In the dance halls
All we need is love
On the TV
All we need is love
We loved you
With the Beatles and the Rolling Stones
Shame
At the Lido and the opera
Shame
At the races and the theater
Shame
We loved you
Day after day
In the dance halls
Day after day
In the dance halls
Day after day
Everywhere I go I see our shame
Everywhere I go all I can see is pain
I see it on the pavements it's lying on the street
I see it on the faces of the people I don't meet
Everywhere I go I hear the sound
Crying in my head it just goes round and round
I hear it on the airwaves, it's coming down the wire
It's starting to consume us like a fire
But I'm only dreaming, as you can see
I don't expect that you should follow me
The road is lonely, I don't complain
It's such a shame
Everywhere I go I feel the love
Washing over me, I just can't get enough
I hear it in the music, that's coming down through me
I know there's love between us, if we only set it free
Everywhere I go I feel the joy
Hold it in your heart, don't let it be destroyed
'Cos all we need is freedom, all we ask is peace
All we ask is no one on their knees
But I'm only dreaming, as you can see
I don't expect that you should follow me
The road is lonely, I don't complain
It's such a shame
'Cos all we need is freedom, all we ask is peace
All we ask is no one on their knees
But I'm only dreaming, as you can see
I don't expect that you should follow me
The road is lonely, I don't complain
I only see myself reflected in your eyes
So all that I believe I am essentially are lies
And everything I've hoped to be or ever thought I was
Died with your belief in me so who the hell am I?
I don't know if I'm real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don't know what's real without you
How can I exist without you?
I'm wondering 'round confused
Wondering why I try
The more that you deny my pain
The more it intensifies...
I pray for someone to ache for me
the way I ache for you...
If you ignore that I'm alive
I've nothing to cling to
I don't know if I'm real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don't know what's real without you
How can I exist without you?
I stare in this mirror so tired of this life
If only you would speak to me or care if I'm alive
Once I swore I would die for you
But I never meant it like this
I never meant like this
no I never meant like this
I don't know if I'm real without you
What is left of me without you?
I don't know what's real without you
How can I exist without you?
How can I exist without you?
Victims of a faceless crime will suffer in the faithless time.
My seed will reach your young and like my sons, they too will die young.
I'd suffer anything, give anything and give everything.
I'd turn back the hands of time and commit the only crime worth remembering,
if I could turn our guilt to hate for just one day.
Instead we hung our heads in shame.
Straight through you
I burn, I burn
My tongue rhymes one thing
For eager ears to hold on to
You know I'll lie again
You know I'll try again
My words, ripping, tearing, straight through you
I, I turn my back on you
And I will, I will, I will shame you, shame you
I, I've got no time for you
And I will, I will, I will shame you, shame you
I burn, I burn
Let me touch you, let me get inside you
All I feel, I can make it seem all so real
You know I'll lie again
You know I'll try again
My words, ripping, tearing, straight through you
I, I turn my back on you
And I will, I will, I will shame you, shame you
I, I've got no time for you
And I will, I will, I will shame you, shame you
No, don't you speak my name
Don't you speak my name, my pain
Don't you speak my name
Don't you speak my name
I, I turn my back on you
And I will, I will shame you, shame you
And I, won't hold against you
If you never, never, never speak my name again
I, I turn my back on you
And I will, I will, I will shame you, shame you
I, I've got no time for you
And I will, I will, I will shame you, shame you
Don't you speak my name
Shame is what I feel for being a man
Our society abuses women every subtle way it can
We can make her feel inadequate for wanting to have a job
We can justify her rape for being too scared to yell
"Stop!"
Why?
She can't have a career, she has to stay home and cook
Fashion magazines tell her how she must look
She's a second class citizen in our "equal society"
Until things change we can never all be free
They say the clothes she wears justified their rude
stares
And that seemed to make it alright
They say she asked for it, so they choose to ignore it
Because she didn't put up a good fight
They tell her she's to blame, I feel nothing but shame
And nobody seems to care
It's just another sexist crime, it happens all the time
A final conversation
It lies heavy on my mind
And although we couldn't say it
I think we know we can't go back this time
Though love and desperation
Is the writing on the wall
And will all the lights stop flashing
Or is this the final curtain call?
It's such a shame, it's such a shame
(Aah)
Don't walk away, don't walk away
(Aah)
All this time I thought I knew myself
But once again I bury my head in shame
Nothing lasts forever
flower always dies
I never felt the beauty
Why can't I see through other people's eyes?
It's such a shame, it's such a shame
(Aah)
Don't walk away, don't walk away
(Aah)
All this time I thought I knew myself
But once again I bury my head in shame
I've paid the price for all my sins
And when love ends new life begins
My independence always knees me to the floor
And it leaves me wanting more, leaves me wanting more
I got everything a girl could ever need
So why do I still feel like my life's so incomplete?
You made me beautiful, brought me to my knees
So please don't go, don't take the missing piece
It's such a shame, it's such a shame
(Aah)
Don't walk away, don't walk away
(Aah)
All this time I thought I knew myself
But once again I bury my head in shame
It's such a shame, it's such a shame
(Aah)
Don't walk away, don't walk away
(Aah)
All this time I thought I knew myself
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Lift my legs, lift my legs
Lift my legs, lift my legs
Lift my legs and drop the complaints
Of your life and your wife
Of your life, of your wife
Of your life, just drop the wife
And pick up men, pick up men
Pick up men, pick up men
Pick up men and invite them into your car
Or into a bar, in a car
In a bar, in a car
It's all about the bars
And you give me a new name
It's all about the name
Like Roger or Lincoln or Teddy
How 'bout Elaine?
I've got a woman's thighs
And a woman's mind
Woman's thighs, woman's mind
Woman's thighs, neither are nice
'Cause you like me to tie you to ice
Woman's mind
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Move your lips, move your hips
Move your hips, move your lips
Move your hips, it's the loneliness
That's camera shy and tries to hide
Crooked teeth, crooked feet
Crooked teeth, how 'bout the cock?
Move aside, bras and tights
Put on lice, put on lice
Put on lice, scurvy and lice
Polio, polio, polio, polio
Polio, how 'bout AIDS?
I cover your eyes, you fantasize
I'm your wife, I'm your life
I'm your wife, how 'bout a fight?
'Cause you like me to tie you to ice
The man's right
Shame, shame, shame, shame
'Cause you like me to tie you to ice, you to ice
'Cause you like me to tie you to ice, you to ice
'Cause you like me to tie you to ice, you to ice
Oh, my love for you is fadin' away
Shame!
And you know the reason I cannot stay
Shame!
You’ve had your chance
Shame!
End of a romance
Shame!
You think you’re the mountain and I’m the dirt
Shame!
But mountains can crumble then you’ll get hurt
Shame!
I’ll bring you down
Shame!
And smash your crown
Shame!
You look at me now with tears in your eyes
Shame!
It’s so obvious they' re more of your lies
Shame!
You had your chance
Shame!
End of a romance
Shame!
A-5: Hands Off (Howard/Blaikley)
Lyrics:
Keep your big hands off,
While I’m far away
Cause that girl is mine,
That’s how it’s gonna stay
Don’t show her the town,
Don’t you mess her around,
Cause I’m not talking soft,
When I say Hands off!
Hands off! Hands off! Yeah!
You’ve got your eye on her,
Now you can’t fool me
You know I’m stuck on her,
So she just ain’t free
Don’t you walk her home,
Or get her on her own,
Cause I’m not talking soft,
When I say Hands off!
Hands off! Hands off! Yeah!
Keep your big hands off,
While I’m far away
Cause that girl is mine,
That’s how it’s gonna stay
Don’t show her the town,
Don’t you mess her around,
Cause I’m not talking soft,
When I say Hands off!
Hands off! Hands off! Yeah!
Ghosts roam the ruins
In the dead
Blackened blindness
Wheels turn in circles
Help me now holy mother
In the backyard of the church
They worship nightly
Crucify the angels
Of our salvation
Forever and ever
You may run and hide
The mirror's a strange
Wrapping mouths with
The danger tonight
Oh feel the shame
(Feel the shame)
I'm not ashamed
(Feel the shame)
[Solo]
Mother terror bless
This five legged suckling
Out of the valley rides his
Surprises help me
Deep in the forest
Can you hear the trees fall?
As they the angels
Sever all relations
Forever and ever
You may run and hide
The mirror's a strange
Wrapping mouths with
The danger tonight
Oh feel the shame
(Feel the shame)
I'm not ashamed
(Feel the shame)
Shame on you!
[Solo]
Forever and ever
You may run and hide
The mirror's a strange
Wrapping mouths with
The danger tonight
(Tonight)
Oh feel the shame
(Feel the shame)
I'm not ashamed
[Solo]
I'm not ashamed
Yeah
Feel the shame
Yeah
Shame on you
why don't you show your face
you bring shame to the human race
your posh clothes are soaked in blood
your wealth means people face down in the mud
I JUST WANNA SEE YOUR FACE
I JUST WONDER SEE IF YOU ARE ASHAMED
thousand of people hoping for salvation
millions of children dying of starvation
your bank account grows bigger and bigger
I think you're getting sicker and sicker
I JUST WANNA SEE YOUR FACE
I JUST WONDER SEE IF YOU ARE ASHAMED
why don't you show your face
you bring shame to the human race
your bank account grows bigger and bigger
A lonely doll
She came again
Frozen wall
Like teenage skin
And neither for
What comes within
A substance clouds like sinking sin
CHORUS
You told your great tale
And it's always the same
Quite a shame that it goes this way
Is what you said
How very bizarre
All those blood-letting games
Quite a shame that it goes this way
Is what you said
(repeat)
Lay me down
Oh such a shame...
CHORUS
You told your great tale
And it's always the same
Quite a shame that it goes this way
Is what she says
How very bizarre
All these blood-letting games
Quite a shame that it goes this way
Is what she says
You told your great tale
And it's always the same
Quite a shame that it goes this way
Is what you said
How very bizarre
All these blood-letting games
Quite a shame that it goes this way
Is what you said
Still smell of fear
She came again
A frozen wall
Like teenage skin
She'll break my fall
Begin my friend
Some old substance clouds like sinking sin
CHORUS
You told your great tale
And it's always the same
Quite a shame that it goes this way
Is what she says
How very bizarre
All these blood-letting games
Quite a shame that it goes this way
It's such a shame
It's such a shame
I walked around
And trough the empty halls
I could hear the sound
Echoing a call
Of a love so strong
That gently slipped away
Now there's no one left to hold today
You know what they say
When your heart is bleeding it'll heel in time
But what if I myself am guilty of the crime?
'Cause I see
I didn't realize I had it all
Instead I chose to take a fall
Now it's all the same
And I've me to blame
Now I'm left alone with my shame
Left with all my shame
Painful whispers
Shouting in my head
Things that were bright yellow
Are now black instead
I had a secret meeting with a strange desire
I couldn't get enough it only took me higher
Now I see
I didn't realize they had it all
Instead I chose to take a fall
Now it's all the same
And I've me to blame
Now I'm left alone with my shame
Left with all my shame
The picture of us on the window seal
It's not replaced with dust
And your fingerprints are gone
And now loneliness is friend of mine
I didn't realize they had it all
Instead I chose to take a fall
Now it's all the same
And I've me to blame
Now I'm left alone with my shame
Left with all my shame
It seems so hard to find it, the window in the wall is the breathing of rain...
This desert land is always this way,
It never ceases in the rainspoken words in the sun.
The lord of my light is the lord of a shameless world,
And a desolate broken mind.
It seems so hard to fight when you are lost,
You're lost little one...
You're lost, little one...
Lost little one...
All circles end in the desertland where everyone weeps
In their halos and radiation scars.
These scars blend in the anger of the crying rain,
I'll continue to bleach the sunsets from your eyes.
I still feel you circle in laughter
As you fight to breathe in your poisonous air.
And if only for one small indiscretion,
I want to be whole I've never been this way before.
If only to bridge this chasm of distance
And shame with you everywhere,
Shame with you everywhere,
Shame with you,
Shame with you,
Shame with you...
And I believe I've never been this way: Confess:
I close my fingers around the flagstone, you provide the rest.
All convergence in time, freaks and virgins and swine,
Always why, always ends this way before it begins.
Before I begin. Before I believe in your winter,
Your wind in my eyes and your hands and your fingers,
The way that you breathe in the night,
What do you wish to see?
Will you love me in shame?
Will you love me in Shame?
And I've been told the second taste always feels the best,
I close my fingers 'round the flagstones, you provide the rest.
In provisions in the wasteland beyond the wall,
Of my mind and my eyes, I don't believe you at all.
If it's only for a second's moment's glance in the light,
If I can believe I'll breathe (with) you in the world of delight.
If it's only for a moment, will I remember the song?
I want to believe you can hold on for this long.
If it's only for a moment, is it only for you?
Is it only for you?
There was a time
Where i used to just feel alive
Then the world started to change
And they never cry, fell the same
And this guy turned to fire
And the people cried, oh why, oh why
So they looked far and wide
And the answer was a funny ol' ride
And the children started to die
Screaming mama papa, oh why, oh why
So they told them a lie
Just to silence and say goodnight
And the people started to die
With their hands towards the rain
They'll be living for the moment
Where the head funny thing singing
Oooh what a shame!
Ooooh yeeeeah yes!
Ooooh girl head yeah
I don't want you
Change my mind girl
And I don't want you
Turn my back on you too, you see
All the I wanted
To love and understand you yes!
Bottom faces you're seeing

Aha aha

All night long, yeah
I'm down, I fly like the weather
Just in time I know what the answer is
Discodance is some kind of medicine
She and me, we've got the vibration
Fancy Saunet, the sweetest dance
Will she take any heat, the girl is so sweet
Come and correct my style
And I'll come runnin' with a funky smile
I will come in trance I'll never give it up, people like me?
We never shut up we're trying to get the girls crazy
And I succeed I'm not lazy
Cause all she talks about, all she talks about is me
Yeah you'll see Petrus here and Petrus is there
So get up babe and I'll be fair, alright.
Let my love come true and let it grow, yeah
It's your decision now, it's your decision
Can you know your love will be there, yeah
You can't just hide it now, you can't just hide it
While as long as it hurts
When you boys just playing around
All night long, yeah
Damn! You? What's your game, everybody wants the same
Can you dig, can you dig my way, from you, I want an okay
Cause I fly, I fly like the weather, I'm just in time?
I know what the answer is,

(Yeah... wooo
Uh, uh-huh... c'mon... uh
Yo... ch'mere ... uh, uh)
The first time I laid my eyes on you,
You know that... girl, you know I had to.
She had the honeycomb lips fired up.
I had the drop top, six chromed up.
That sounds like we was meant to,
Girl, you were sent to...
From up above, Heaven lent you.
To let me take your time, with the line, what's yer name?
You telling me you got a man... damn that's a shame ...
Somebody let me know,
Why I gotta play all the time in a low-down?
It's a shame how I make you feel,
But it's hard girl... I'm trying to keep it real.
It's a shame .... (uh-huh)
You know yer messing 'round with my heart
(The way I'm playing with yer heart, girl...)
It's a shame ...
The way you... hurt me.
(I didn't meant to...)
Like Sugarbear, don't scandalize mine.
That's just how I play, get yourself in line.
Ah, my girlfriends phoning me, uh
Asking why she found a pair of panties in the backseat, uh.
Damn! I shoulda known I was wrong to.
I didn't mean to hurt you girl, I didn't want to.
But she was too damn, jiggity boom.
Green eyes, jeans tight, and dark hair...
I friggin had to.
Somebody let me know,
Why I gotta play all the time in a low-down?
It's a shame how I make you feel,
But it's hard girl... I'm trying to keep it real.
It's a shame .... (uh-huh)
You know yer messing 'round with my heart
(The way I'm playing with yer heart, girl...)
It's a shame ...
The way you... hurt me.
(I didn't meant to...)
Pardon me girl, that it ain't what yer thinkin.
All alone, while yer sleepin, I'm dreamin.
(Trying to say...)
Is I got you, but I gotta get you... in my heart,
Girl, I gotta let you.
I need to stop that guy. I'm tryin to get it straight.
Girl, it ain't no lie.
My best friend's tellin me to chill now,
Need to hold it down,
Baby tell me, ain't you feel now ...
Somebody let me know,
Why I gotta play all the time in a low-down?
It's a shame how I make you feel,
But it's hard girl... I'm trying to keep it real.
It's a shame .... (uh-huh)
You know yer messing 'round with my heart
(The way I'm playing with yer heart, girl...)
It's a shame ...
The way you... hurt me.
Shame
Sometimes I get lonely
‘nd sometimes she gets sad
but now she paints her nails cause I’m not around
but they’re the best we ever had
like we do baby
Like we do baby
So if I break down its because of you
‘nd when you shake me its because I do
it’s a terminal case of L. O. V. E.
everything is coming down on me
like we do yeah
like we do
Chorus:
It’s a shame shame shame
It’s a shame shame shame
Why we always gotta hurt each other
why we always gotta put each other down
some folks think that getting
by ain’t being lonely well
I aint moving that way
I see too many fools on the road going down
As they’re climing they are slipping away
Like we do baby yeah
Like we do baby
Now the way that you want it
The way that you got it
The way that you take it
The way that you profit
Chorus
You hurting me baby yeah
Why you wanna do that to me
Don’t you know that you hurting me
You hurting me baby yeah
Hurt me baby
Yeah, once again
This is not only a story
It’s the reality of life
Look into the sky...
Stars in heaven are flying so high
When you get around everything will be
Everything will be alright
If you’re rolling, strolling, holding and knowing
You hear my words cause they ain’t no lies
And everything is going
It’s jealousy, no history
Unintentionally, brutality
Now you came to see - to see the mystery
And check the game it used to be
16 years young little teenagers
Making little babies whit the virus - at their ages
Chorus:
It’s a shame to play this game
Look into reality
It’s a shame can’t you feel the pain
It’s a shame to play this game
Got to face reality
It’s a shame you still feel the same
Live your life in dignity
Can you stand the rain
This hopeless world is driving me insane
My brain - I can’t maintain
All this people in this game
Just words to all
Who still don’t care a little bit
Just one thing to tell you ain’t shit!
Open your eyes and let me bring it to your soul
Keep the faith inside your heart
‘Cause life must go on
Steps into your brain like a knife
And you’re afraid
Belive in god and youwill find your way
Chorus
Sometimes I feel the pain inside of me
Every night and day
It seems the pain that I have
That I hate is all
That I’ve gained in this game
And I wish the rain
Would delete this flame - ohh, it’s a shame!
It’s a shame to play this game
Look into reality
It’s a shame can’t you feel the pain, ohh...
It’s a shame to play this game
Look into reality
It’s a shame can’t you feel the pain, ohh...
It sticks into your brain...
Now it's time to say goodbye
And I will jump from an aeroplane
I'll dive into the ocean, now
I'm feeling like a stranger to you
When I'm going down with the speed of light
Chorus
Send me an angel with love
I'll climb any mountain for you
And it's a shame, who's to blame
We're guilty all the same
I'll drive my car with a blindfold, over my eyes
I'm feeling like a stranger to you
When I'm driving on in the neonlights
Chorus
Send me....
The dream's alive, for all the times we tried
We can't let it slip away, after all this time
And it's a shame
Chorus
A very simple statement
A very simple crime
A lot of grief reflecting in how we spend our time
I want to change things
I want to make a change
I'm tired of spending time agonizing yesterdays
Shame on me
Shame on you
Shame on every little thing that we do
Shame on me
Shame on you
Now's there's only one thing that we can do.
Another empty day
Another day comes true
A lot of selfish dreams are waiting here for you
I've got to have you
I've got no one to blame
It's just the two of us
With nothing left to say
But..
Shame on me
Shame on you
Shame on every little thing that we do
Shame on me
Shame on you
Now there's only one thing we can do
Shame on me
Shame on you
Shame on me
Shame on you
I've got to change things
I've got to make a change
I'm tired of spending time agonizing yesterdays
Shame on me
A one way ticket to a place that's cold and ill
The following twisted dream is what keeps me in this
seal
Could have been a doctor, or a Harvard priest
But I wound up being a freak like me
Shame, Nothing you can do to hide
Shame, Just a little pain inside
Shame, You throw your life away
If I'm drowning, so are you
A secret life, A sacred light, It powers me
I sleep at night with my head hung in misery
A true romance, A deadly dance
It's all means to an end
To find you're sleeping with your only friend
Shame, Nothing you can do to hide
Shame, Just a little pain inside
Shame, You throw you life away
If I'm drowning so are you
Tick Tock, Tick Tock
What will you do
Tick Tock This is true
Tick Tock, Tick Tock
It's always been you
Tick Tock, Tick Tock
No jesus loves you
Shame, Nothing you can do do hide
Shame, Just a little pain inside
Shame, You throw you life away
run to your room
prize apologies
crawl back in her womb
who's fantasies are these
so I tried to love you
so long, so real i tried to tell you
somewhat how I feel
shame!
Chorus
i can see just what you've done to me
half is he who holds hypocracy
stand in my face, watch you disappear
i can see just what you've left me here
crying to feel plain
screm to pass the time
prophecy in vain
who's standing by your crime
so i tried to love you so long so real
now i have to tell you
shame is how I feel
shame!
Chorus
I look alive
I'm aliveand i'm high, high
I look alive
I'm aliveand i'm high, high
It was an ugly thing to look into my soul
I thought You'd taken everything but You just filled the hole
Give me the thorn, drive it in deep
I'll take the pain cause love ain't cheap
(chorus)
My heart bowed in shame
As I called Your name
You shall always be the one for me
Can't explain the things You've done for me
Keeping me from the fire, Oh precious memories
Farther along I go, take my hand precious Lord
[Ceschi]
It's a shame, to walk the streets at night
Not knowing where you're going, just heading towards
nothing
To rest your head on cement, never feeling another's
flesh
To never wear a watch, to never hear or watch
It's a crime, to have a disease
To need to have to feed, desire constantly
Oh it's pain, to love something that hates you and will
not change
It hurts, to puncture yourself
To smoke out of a can, to dream about sex
To shave with scissors, to wash in water fountains
To eat the eucharist, to beg for a DIIIIME
It's fuckin sharp, to walk on gravel
With bare feet in the winter, and no more friendly liquor
To wish to be in jail, to wish that you weren't here
To look at yourself in car windows and remember that you
once had a family
With a house and a dog and a garden
with fake flowers and lawn gnomes and a picket fence
In the middle of a suburb, happily married
To a beautiful wife, with a son and a daughter AND A GUN!
Yes a gun and the tomatoes, it's a shame
You live in a world of excess
where more is more
and less is much less
A day without fame
is a waste
and a question of need
is a question of taste
You're so flamboyant
the way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment
is getting more
You want police intervention
You're so flamboyant
the way you live
You really care that they stare
And the press deployment
is always there
It's what you do for enjoyment
You live in a time of decay
when the worth of a man
is how much he can play
Every day
all the public must know
where you are, what you do
'cause your life is a show and
You're so flamboyant
the way you live
and it's not even demeaning
You're so flamboyant
It's like a drug
you use to give your life meaning
You're so flamboyant
The way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment
Is getting more
You want police intervention
Every actor needs
an audience
Every action is
a performance
It all takes courage
You know it
Just crossing the street
well, it's almost heroic
You're so flamboyant
There you are
at another preview
In a pose
the artist and you
To look so loud
may be considered tacky
Collectors wear black clothes
by Issey Miyake
You're so flamboyant
the way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment
is getting more
You want police intervention
You're so flamboyant
The way you live
You really care that they stare
And the press deployment
is always there
It's what you do for enjoyment
You're so flamboyant
You're so flamboyant
Take your hands off of her,
I'll tighten my grasp,
On your throat,
Please get out dears,
I don't know you but seeing you like this is unbearable,
In blind love or scared to leave,
You're just a pawn in his game,
Part of his control,
You won't ever have to cover you're bruises again,
You won't ever have to deal with that again,
Then you can free,
who do you think you are?
You're wrong,
You ain't no fucking man,
You're nothing,
Lets see what you got,
How could you not have seen this?
Put your hands on a woman,
You're wrong,
I'll put you in your place,
1st Verse:
You had a bad night
You didn't do right
You fell to sin again /and you feel bad very bad
You repented but / you still feel the guilt
I understand but just remember
Jesus said, He didn't come to condemn
But that the world might be saved through him
Conviction comes from the Holy Spirit
When you need it He will give it
And there is therefore no condemnation
To them who are in Christ
(Them that walk in the spirit)
No shame - No blame hey hey hey
Chorus: No shame - No blame - Jesus took the blame
2nd Verse:
Paul said the thing I don't want to do is the thing that I seem to do
We're more than conquerors through Him that loved us
When we are weak he can make us strong
Remember Jesus said, He didn't come to condemn
But that the world might be saved through him
Conviction comes from the Holy Spirit
When you need it He will give it
And there is therefore no condemnation
To them who are in Christ
(Them that walk in the spirit)
No shame - No blame hey hey hey
Chorus: No shame - No blame - Jesus took the blame
I think I'm gonna dance - go ahead - dance with Jesus
Bridge:
And I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
For it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone
That believeth - I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
For it is the power of God unto salvation
To the Jew first and also to the Greek
