Shame

[Intro] It's a shame It's a shame It's a shame It's a shame [Verse 1] Wherever you go, I'll go with ya, and Whatever you smoke, I'll smoke with ya Whenever you pose, I will take your picture Even though I just wish I was in it, just have something to remember We lit our cigarettes with studied thoughtfulness, and Dreamed of high consciousness but really wanted the opposite, and Who unscrewed the bottle and poured booze onto the flame? Who gives a damn about all the consequence? I just wanted to know your name [Pre-Chorus] It's a shame (It's a shame) But all in love is fair, and It's a shame (It's a shame) It's pain we have to bear And it's a shame (It's a shame) When you got no one left to blame and you say "Don't go," But they're already there [Chorus] It's a shame (It's a shame) It's just a shame (It's a shame, it's a shame) It's a shame (It's a shame) It's just a shame (It's a shame, it's a shame) It's a crying shame [Verse 2] Whatever you pay, I'll pay for ya, and I Wherever you lay, I'll lay on ya, and I Whatever you sang, I will do the octave Even though you don't care much for harmonies I just wanted to give you the option We drink and we womanize, we Fuck and we fetishize, we Get clean and testify, we Relapse and we justify, but There's so many to eulogize when no one recalls the prayer And I guess some love, it just crystallizes while some stays in the air [Pre-Chorus] And it's a shame (It's a shame) We just can't get along, and It's a shame (It's a shame) When things just turn out wrong And it's a shame (It's a shame) When you've got nothing left to say And so you put it in a song but you only wanted to explain that [Chorus] It's a shame (It's a shame) It's just a shame (It's a shame) It's a shame (It's a shame) It's just a shame (It's a shame) It's a crying shame It's a shame (It's a shame) Oh, it's a shame (It's a shame, it's a shame) It's a shame (It's a shame) It's a shame (It's a shame) It's a crying shame [Non-Lyrical Outro]
