Lyrics
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
Hey boy, are you happy to be
A dim-ass teen on the spree?
You get drunk all day
And you're sick all night
Is this the sum of your life?
What's your name?
What's your name?
What's your dreams, your goals, your ambitions and aims?
He laughed and said:
"Shame is the name"
He said:
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
He said:
"Shame is the name"
Hey girl, are you happy to be
A dim-ass teen on the spree?
You get drunk all day
And you're sick all night
Is this all you was born for?
What's your name?
What's your name?
What's your dreams, your goals, ambitions and aims?
She laughed and said:
"Shame is the name"
She said:
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
Politician, can you listen to yourself
For just once in your life?
Because of something you've said teen soldiers are dead
Because of money you've saved seniors are in their graves
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
"Shame is the name"
Shame makes the world go 'round
Shame makes the world go 'round
Shame makes the world go 'round
Shame makes the world go 'round
