Karaoke Shame

Well there's three versions of this story
Mine and yours and then the truth
Now we can put it down to circumstance
Our childhood then our youth
Out of some sentimental gain
I wanted you to feel my pain
But it came back return to sender
I read your mind and tried to call
My tears could fill the Albert Hall
Is this the sound of sweet surrender
What a shame
What a shame we never listened we never listened
I told you through
I told you through the television the television
And all that went away
And all that went away was the price we paid was the price we paid
People spend a lifetime
People spend a lifetime this way, oh, what a shame this way, oh, what a shame
So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus
Oh, and with your poster thirty foot
High at the back of Toys'R'us
I wrote a letter in my mind
I wrote a letter in my mind but the words were so unkind but the words were so unkind
About a man
I can't remember
I don't recall
I don't recall the reasons why the reasons why
I must have meant
I must have meant them at the time them at the time
Is this the sound of sweet surrender
What a shame
What a shame we never listened we never listened
I told you through
I told you through the television the television
And all that went away
And all that went away was the price we paid was the price we paid
People spend
People spend a lifetime this way a life time this way
That's how they stay that's how they stay oh, what a shame oh, what a shame
Words come easy
Words come easy when they're true when they're true
Words come easy
Words come easy when they're true when they're true
So I got busy throwing
So I got busy throwing everybody underneath the bus everybody underneath the bus
And with your
And with your poster thirty feet poster thirty feet
High at the back
