It's a shame
It's a shame
It's a shame
It's a shame

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 sturdy thoughtfulness, and
Dreamed of high consciences
but really one of 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

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 to blame and you say
"Don't go, " But they're are already there
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 a just shame (It's a shame, It's a shame)
To cry in crying shame

Whenever you pay, I'll pay for ya, and I
Wherever you lay, I'll lay on you, and I
Whatever you say, I will do the octave
Even though you don't care much for harmony
I just wanted to give you the option
A drinking woman lies with
[?]
Get clean and testify, we
Relapse and we justify, but
So many to eulogize when no one calls the press
And I guess our love it just crystallizes
and some stays in the air

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

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 just 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
