about

This track originally belonged to the HOME album, which like the WORLDS APART CD ran out of the limited release prints and I decided to let them go due mostly to lack of funds. Perhaps one day I'll resurrect them... I forgot exactly what was used on this track but I remember distinctly using a Les Paul with Alembic pick-ups and singing through an AKG better suited for cymbals... The Biamp board was also a nightmare. But all in all, I liked it enough to keep it.

lyrics

SUCH A SHAME


YOU WALK AROUND
AS IF YOU HAD IT MADE
THERE’S SOMETHING YOU MUST HAVE STEPPED IN
STINKING UP THE PLACE
ARE YOU SOME SORT OF MISTAKE?

FIRST THERE’S THE PROMISE
THEN THE CHANGE OF MIND
AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED
YOU CHANGE THE GAME AROUND
TO YOU, IT’S ALL SUCH A DANDY
TO THE REST OF US, IT FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IS DYING

OHOH, SUCH A NIGHTMARE
OHOH, SUCH A SHAME

YOU’RE QUITE THE DANCER
WHEN YOUR FRIENDS CONDUCT THE SCORE
I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE DAY YOU FALL
TO SEE ALL CRY FOR MORE
YOU GO AND FIND YOURSELF A HOLE
YOU AND YOUR PALS NEED TO TAKE A WALK

OHOH, SUCH A NIGHTMARE
OHOH, SUCH A SHAME
