Lyrics
"SHAME"
©1999 Words and Music by Laurie and Rick Williams
Not much good at polite conversation
Never gave me any real inspiration
All I gave you was a bad reputation
Now ain't that a shame
Not much good at your need for second guessin'
can't get into holy grails or preacher's blessins
I could never stand to be your window dressin'
Now ain't that a shame
Shame, ain't that a shame
You're after somethin' but it's too damn lame
You say that everybody else is to blame
Shame
Called your house and you told me to call back
Called your office and ya put me on the Muzak
I called your bluff and you finally heard that
Ain't that a shame
Now you're cryin' that we never did no talkin'
Quit your whinin' babe I'm outta here and walkin'
You still don't know it but I'm gone from all your squawkin'
Now ain't that a shame
Shame, ain't that a shame
Treatin' people like they're all the same
Treatin' us like we're some damn game
Shame
