Standing in the middle of a delicate tension
Got a lot on my mind but not enough to mention
A short attention span and a big imagination
A positive constriction and an obvious affliction
It’s a shame It’s a shame
Everybody knows it but just the same
It’s a shame, it’s a shame
You don’t want to play my favorite game
School’s out of session with a definite obsession
A long forgotten legend and a minor transgression
Are you with me, are you with me, are you with me, are you with me
Dogs that want to bite me and dogs that want to sniff me
It’s a shame it’s a shame
Everybody does it but no one takes the blame
It’s a shame, it’s a shame
You don’t want to play my favorite game
Cholera, bulimia, insomnia, collateral
A chemical imbalance and a chronic analytical
You can’t stand the heat but you still want the sweets
You don’t like my mission then get out of my kitchen
It’s a shame, etc
