Shame on You Lyrics

The song Shame on You is performed by Timbuk 3 in the album named Greetings from Timbuk 3 in the year 1990 .



Shame on you, shame on you
Shame on you, shame on you

Man, you could have had power and a hot position
Like a hotshot lawyer or a bigshot politician
You could have been the head of a major corporation
Instead you're working part time at a filling station
Doing comedy on the side -- you're really quite funny
But dude, don't you know you could be making big money?

Shame on you -- you haven't got a dime
Shame on you -- for having such a good time
Shame on you -- you're a disgrace to everyone
Shame on you -- you're having too much fun
Shame on you, shame on you
Shame on you, shame on you

Well, I remember that producer down in Hollywood
Who came to hear you play, and said you were good
It was your one big break --
If you only would have played your cards a little smarter
By now you'd have it made -- your own TV show, or recording contract!
And all you had to do was lighten up your act!
A stairway to the stars -- a one-way ticket
But you, you had to go and tell him where he could stick it

Shame on you -- you could have been on TV
Shame on you -- you have too much integrity
Shame on you -- you should have kept the door open
Shame on you -- you're just too outspoken

Shame on you -- you haven't got a dime
Shame on you -- for having such a good time
Shame on you -- you're a disgrace to everyone
Shame on you -- you're having too much fun
Shame on you -- you're having too much fun
Shame on you -- you're having too much fun
