Shame

(intro) Well there’s three versions of this story mine & yours and then the truth And we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood, then our youth Out of some sentimental gain I wanted you to feel my pain, but it came back return to sender ) I read your mind and tried to call, my tears could fill the Albert Hall, is this the of sweet surrender? What a shame we never listened I told you through the television And all that went away was the price we paid People spend a lifetime this way Oh what a shame. So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus And with your poster 30 foot at the back of Toys-R-Us I wrote a letter in my mind, but the words were so unkind, about a man I can’t remember ) I don’t recall the reasons why, I must have meant them at the time, is this the sound of surrender? What a shame we never listened I told you through the television And all that went away was the price we paid People spend a lifetime this way And that’s how they stay Oh what a shame. Words come easy, when they’re true Words come easy, when they’re true So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus And with your poster 30 foot at the back of Toys-R-Us Now we can put it down to circumstance, our childhood then our youth. What a shame we never listened I told you through the television And all that went away was the price we paid People spend a lifetime this way And that’s how they stay People spend a lifetime this way Oh what a shame, what a shame Such a shame, what a shame
