Out last night in my Sunday stripes
|
(You didn't want to know me)
|
At the Tuesday hop if I wear drainpipes
|
(You say you're gonna throw me)
|
The way you treat me's frightening
|
Strike me down like lightning
|
You know it's a shame (You didn't want to know)
|
It's a game (You say you're gonna throw me)
|
|
Out of town there's a story round
|
(You're staying with another)
|
At the picture show so the rumour goes
|
(You've been playing with my brother)
|
I don't know where I'm standing
|
You give me such a bumpy landing
|
It's a shame (You're staying with another)
|
It's a game (You've been playing with my brother)
|
|
Getting a bad reaction
|
Chasin' my girls best friend
|
Wonder should I walk on home
|
Plan a break-up or shake hands and make up again
|
It's a shame, it's a game (It's a a shame it's a game)
|
Wah ooh
|
It's a shame, it's a game
|
Wah ooh
|
|
I was out tonight looking wild in white
|
(You didn't want to know me)
|
Tried to catch a hint on how to jive
|
(You didn't want to show me)
|
I haven't got a dogs chance
|
If I don't know how to hip-dance
|
It's a shame (You didn't want to know me)
|
It's a game (You didn't want to show me)
|
|
Wah ooh
|
I really felt hip wearing my stripes, baby It's a shame
|
(It's a shame, it's a game)
|
And I really thought my drainpipes were outta sight Yeah, it's a shame
|
(It's a shame, it's a game)
|
Well, you struck me down like lightning, baby, I didn't know what to do, ha
|
(It's a shame, it's a game)
|
There's so many rumors about me and about you I don't know what to do
|
It's a shame I don't know what to do, baby I need ya
|
(It's a shame, it's a game)
|
Oh, c'mon and teach me how to hip jive
|
(It's a shame, it's a game)
