Shame
now there’s a lifestyle with painted lips
now there’s a lifestyle everybody wants it but it don’t exist
and i said shame in the dancehalls and the cinema
shame on the tv and the media
shame we loved you
 
now there’s a lifestyle with fashion chic
now there’s a lifestyle everybody in it wants to be elite
and i said you with yer brand new shoes
you with yer greasy hair
and you with yer mother’s pride and poetry
don’t you want to feel the shame
 
in the dancehalls
can’t you feel the shame
and the tv
can’t you feel the shame
we loved you
shame
 
shame at the lido and the opera
shame at the races and the theatre
shame we loved you
and they said
all we need is love
we loved you
all we need is love
with the beatles
and the rolling stones
 
day after day
in the dancehalls
