Monie Love, True Image - It's a Shame (My Sister) lyrics

My sister, my sister
Tell me what the trouble is
I'll try to listen good and give the
Best advice that I can give
So, what's up with you this time?
Your honey took a dive and now
He's playin' with your mind?
Oh, no, this can not be accepted
The feelings that belong to
You must be protected
Hold up, time out, I shout
Get it together sister
Tell him to be nice or ditch the mister

It's a shame
The way you mess around with my heart
It's a shame, the way you, hurt me!

It's a shame
The way you mess around with my heart
It's a shame, the way you, hurt me!



Get back on your feet please
I'm beggin' you to check out
All your own needs
Don't let nobody see you in
A state of grievin', over the brother
There's another possibility
Which is for you to work
Out where you went wrong
I guarantee to you that it will not take long
For you to make your mind up
If the two of you belong
You know where honey's head at
And where he's comin' from
Get it out your system
Don't be another victim
This took the nerve, oh boy
He really picked 'em, whaddya know
It's time for you to show you're not sleepin'
A progress report on the two of you
You're keepin' peekin' through the peephole
To see if honey's sneakin'
You estimated right
That night the other weekend
Collectively the facts should
Conclude the decision
You caught the brother in
A terrible disposition

It's a shame
The way you mess around with my heart
It's a shame, the way you, hurt me!

It's a shame
The way you mess around with my heart
It's a shame, the way you, hurt me!

That's it, pack it up, be wise my sister
'Cause the facts keep stackin' up, tell him
To kiss the you know what
Make sure the door is shut, behind you
I do believe the brother's out of luck
And stuck but that's not, your P-R-O-B-L-E-M
You gotta let him go and let
Him know this is the end
You've been kissed, dissed
Listed as a dumb one
I hope he likes sad songs, he's gonna hum one
He's been a dum dum and that's
The way it is forever there comes a time
When you're at the end of your tether
And you know
I think you went FAR beyond that
So it was bound to backtrack
And smack you with an irksome
Vengeance as it attacks you
Makin' sure you get the full entire view
Of who's to blame, at the end, of the game
Things will never be the same
And it's a cryin' shame

It's a shame
The way you mess around with my heart
It's a shame, the way you, hurt me!

It's a shame
The way you mess around with my heart
It's a shame, the way you, hurt me!
