Lyrics
Shame on you
© 2012 Bruce Mills (SOCAN BMI)
If you think that dressing up and acting cool
And putting on the dog is
How you get respect
Then shame on you
If you think the sun don't shine
Unless you're getting what you want
And you're the center of the world
Then shame on you
If you think that playing games
And telling lies is all OK
Because your Facebook friends like it
Shame on you; I said shame on you; shame on you
Chorus
Something bad is gonna happen one of these days
You're asking for some trouble
If you don't change your ways
You really need a friend
If you think that stepping out
And cheating on someone you love
Is necessary now and then
Well, shame on you
If you think you'll get ahead
By talking loud and wearing red
And making deals and playing dead
Then shame on you
If you think that superficial stuff
Like all the money that you got
Can get you into heaven - hah
Shame on you; I said, shame on you; shame on you
Chorus
Something bad is gonna happen one of these days
You're asking for some trouble
If you don't change your ways
You really need a friend, oh yeah
A friend who knows you good enough
To talk about your vanity
And brave enough
To say it to your face
A friend who knows you long enough
To teach you some humanity
And keep on holding on
Until you do
Until you do
If you think that people like your attitude
Or care about your politics or notice your opinion
Hah ...
If you think you're wonderful because you say so
And you treat the ones you love like garbage - baby
Shame on you
If you think you're on the winning side and feeling satisfied
And you don't care that you are losing everything, I said every thing
Shame on you; shame on you; shame on you; shame on you
Shame, shame, shame, shame ...
Shame, shame
And put you in your place because
No one's gonna like you
And takes you back to Sunday school
teach you some humility
Before you Human race
Give and take
No ones gonna like you - `til you do
anyway
You gotta to give and take
More like a lady
