Shame

Wash your mouth out
Speak only when spoken to
Pure devotion
Make sure that it doesn't bruise

What a shame, shame
It's a shame
It's a shame game
In the den of a lion
More the same, same
Different names
Never gonna change
But I'll swear that I'm tryin'

I feel schizophrenic, how poetic, romanticise all the pain
How pathetic, drinking gasoline and calling me the flame
Baby, I'm a hypocrite, I'll take you to the grave
Oh, what a shame

Tell me sweet things
Just enough to make me beg
I'll learn to like it
Or at least that's what you said

What a shame, shame
It's a shame
It's a shame game
In the den of a lion
More the same, same
Different names
Never gonna change
But I'll swear that I'm tryin'

I feel schizophrenic, how poetic, romanticise all the pain
How pathetic, drinking gasoline and calling me the flame
Baby, I'm a hypocrite, I'll take you to the grave
Oh, what a shame

How embarrassing to get this far and never really change
I know you are what you eat but it's the taste that keeps me tame
We both know I'm a hypocrite, I'll take you to the grave
(It's all a shame, shame)
(It's a shame, shame)

I feel schizophrenic, how poetic, romanticise all the pain
How pathetic, drinking gasoline and calling me the flame
Baby, I'm a hypocrite, I'll take you to the grave
Oh, what a shame

Oh, what a shame
Oh, what a shame
