...EMBARRASSMENT... by Madness
-------------------...........
*from 'Absolutely' (1980)*
3rd
(Original Key: Bbm)
Verse 1:
Re-ceived a letter just the other day;
Don't seem they wanna know you no more.
They've laid it down, given you their score.
With-in the first two lines, it bluntly read;
Chorus 1:
You're not to come and see us no more; keep away from our door,
Don't come 'round here no more.
What on earth did you do that for?
Verse 2:
Our aunt, she don't wanna know, she says;
What will the neighbours think? They'll think;
We don't, that's what they'll think, we don't,
But I will, 'cos I know they think I don't.
Chorus 2:
Our uncle, he don't wanna know, he says;
We are a disgrace to the human race, he says;
How can you show your face,
When you're a disgrace to the human race?
Sax Solo:
Gm, Dm (x4)
Verse 3:
No com-mittment; you're an em-barrassment,
Yes, an embarrassment; a living endorsement.
The in-tention that you have booked,
Was an in-tention that was overlooked.
Chorus 3:
They say, stay a-way; don't want you home today.
Keep a-way from our door;
Don't come 'round here no more.
Verse 4:
Our dad, he don't wanna know, he says; this is a serious matter;
Too late to reconsider,
No one's gonna wanna know ya!
Chorus 4:
Our mum, she don't wanna know, she says;
I'm feelin' twice as old, she says;
Thought she had a head on her shoulder,
'Cos I'm feelin' twice as older, I'm feelin' twice as older.
