Shattered (Live 1981)

[Intro]

Shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Shadoobie, shattered, shattered

[Chorus]

Love and hope and sex and dreams

Are still surviving on the street

Look at me, I'm in tatters

I'm a shattered

[Verse 1]

Friends are so alarming

And my lover's never charming

Life's just a cocktail party on the street

Big Apple

People dressed in plastic bags

Directing traffic

Some kind of fashion

[Chorus]

Laughter, joy, and loneliness and sex and sex and sex and sex

Look at me, I'm in tatters

I'm a shattered

Shattered

[Verse 2]

All this chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter about

Shmatta, shmatta, shmatta, I can't give it away on 7th Avenue

This town's been wearing tatters (Because I'm shattered)

Ah, shadoobie

Ah, shadoobie

Work and work for love and sex

Ain't you hungry for success, success, success, success

Does it matter?

I'm shattered

I'm shattered

[Chorus]

Ahhh, look at me, I'm a shattered

Look at me, I'm a shattered

Look at me, I'm a shattered

Look at me, I'm a shattered

Laughter, joy, and loneliness and sex and sex and sex and sex

I'm shattered

Ah, shadoobie

Ah, shadoobie

Ah, shadoobie

Shattered, shattered

Ah, shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Ah, shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Ah, shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Ah, shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Ah, shadoobie, shattered, shattered

Ah, shadoobie, shattered, shattered

[Verse 3]

Don't you know the crime rate is going up, up, up, up, up

To live in this town you must be tough, tough, tough, tough, tough!

You got rats on the west side

Bed bugs uptown

What a mess this town's in tatters, I've been shattered

My brain's been battered, splattered all over Manhattan

Shadoobie

Shadoobie

[Outro]

Uh-huh, this town's full of money grabbers

Go ahead, bite the Big Apple, don't mind the maggots

Uh huh, shadoobie

All my friends they come around they

Flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter

Pile it up, pile it up

Pile it up on the platter

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]

Shadoobie, thank you! Thank you, thank you! [?] Alright, baby. Alright! This one we're gonna do, this is a new song. Can you give us an E key? This one's called "Neighbours."
