Disgraceful was Dubstar's debut album. It was released in October 1995 on the Food Records label, a division of EMI that was also home to Blur.
Disgraceful's cover underwent a revision after some time on general release. The original cover—pictured here—contained a furry blue pencil case with a balloon inside, creating a somewhat labia-like effect. This was later revised to the current, slightly less blatant bunny slipper design. Some have contested this move as censorship which entirely misconstrues the tongue-in-cheek humour of the original.
All songs written by Steve Hillier, except where noted.
Alone I'm sitting in my room watching the time to pass me by
Solitude my only friend rejected from life I thought was mine
I thought was mine...
Black burnt shell - Frozen inside
Disgraceful - All cold inside
I've seen myself so dark, yet so fine, carrying that flower once called life
Seeing myself so dark and so serene
My world seems to crumble before my eyes
Crumble into eternity...
Black burnt shell - Frozen inside
Disgraceful - All cold inside
Gone to darkness is this human soul solitude its' only friend
Sorrowladen and too weak to let it go
Crash and burn this is a dead-end
I want to break free from this human-made paradise
The snake in the garden of Eden cries out my name calling me there...
I want to give my life to someone who can live it right
The call is too strong for me to resist 'till the end of me
Alone I'm sitting in my room, curtains blocking the sun from my eyes
Seeing myself so dark and so serene
My world seems to crumble before my eyes
(Crumble into eternity...)
Black burnt shell - Frozen inside
Disgraceful - All cold inside
Black burnt shell - Frozen inside
