Gary Numan - Shame Lyrics






I've done things God should've questioned
But I don't care.
I've seen things that made my flesh crawl
But I was young.
I've said things that you believed in
But I don't mean.
I heard things, one more confession that
Leaves me cold.

My picture ashames you
My picture
My picture ashames me
My picture

This ain't love, this ain't affection
But you don't care.
This ain't need, I'm not the fashion
So leave my heart.
So good God were you mistaken
Now will I burn?
No more lies no more distraction
So pay you back.

Religion ashames you
Religion
Religion ashames me
Religion

I'm lying shame on me
(secrets forever)
This disease shame on me
(secrets forever)
My memories shame on me
(secrets forever)
Abandon,abandon me
(secrets forever)

This fashion ashames you
This fashion
This passion ashames me
This passion

I'll never ashame you
I'll never ashamed me.

A stranger, shame on me
(secrets forever)
Nostalgia, shame on me
(secrets forever)
Religion, shame on me
(secrets forever)
Abandon, abandon me.

I've done things God should've questioned
But I don't care.

    Thanks for this, it's such a good song especially now I have the lyrics

  3. K.... K....

    I was just thinking if you took a chunk of the material from 91-93 you could make a reasonable album. This would be on it, The Skin Game, I Wonder, Whisper as well.

    K.... K....

    Kris Keogh "i wonder" is a much underrated track isnt it. I love it. Agreed too,you could take four from each of those 'middle period' albums and come up with a real good album. :)

  4. V.... Y....

    I  love the chorus voice !

  5. N.... M....

    Nick Beggs on Chapman Stick.....awesome track!

  6. D.... ....

    Outland is one of my favourite album, additionally makes me happy, because it is a little-known album.  I listen to it very, very often ;) I  I'm glad, that I have this album on Vinyl.  I want to cry, when I think that a year later, Gary released the only bad (shitty) Machine and Soul album. I am a fanatical fan (:D) of Gary Numan!!! Sorry for my bad english. Greeting from Poland!

    D.... ....

    well said

  7. S.... N....

    love outland as an album - don't care what other fans think of his so called mid period music. Numan fan since 1978

  8. h.... ....

    "Secrets forever." Always bothers me in a goose-bumpy kind of way.

  9. P.... T....

    No other comments says it all.....Not one of Numans best but better then some around this time!
