The city's burning with desire High-heeled chicks turnin' tricks in a trance Pin-stripe zombies on fire Sayin' hey baby, here's a dime for a dance (out on the street) I see innocent faces in the rain (out on the street) I see make-up runnin' down from tears of pain Down the drain Shame Now mama tell it like it is It's a shame For what papa did It's a shame Your sister should've told you so It's a shame 'cause nobody wants to know The neon moon turns red around midnight Junior junkies and runaway girls Blue eyed babies posing in the headlights Another stray cat in a dog eat dog world (out on the street) Ain't no room for no cheap talkin' prayer (out on the street) You don't know what it's like 'till you're there And you're runnin' scared Shame Now mama tell it like it is It's a shame The way papa hurt his kid It's a shame Your sister should've told you so It's a shame C'mon man let her go So young Yet so old So hard to find a friend She lives from lover to lover 'till there's nothing left of her Yeah sweet daddy scores again Shame Now mama tell it like it is It's a shame The way papa hurt his kid It's a shame Your sister should've told you so It's a shame C'mon man let her go The world should've let you know C'mon man let her go Shame on the school Shame on the teacher Shame on those sticky little fingers all over that helpless creature Shame on the parish Shame on the preacher From where he stands that man don't have half a chance to reach her Shame shame shame On me and you Shame shame shame Now what are we goin' to do
