The Hollies - It's a Shame, It's a Game lyrics
[The Hollies - It's a Shame, It's a Game lyrics]
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)
(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

Wonder should I walk on home

And make up again it's a shame, it's a game
