Charming smile, beguiled
Invited back to the Country pile
Deals done in respectable style
In your 15 minutes of shame
Sharp suit, new recruit
You're never too small to contribute
Or bring the family into disrepute
In your 15 minutes of shame
You can choose your sin but you can never choose your fate
Don't make love by the garden gate
Love may be blind but the neighbours ain't so
All's fair in love and war, but that's not what we came here for
Another consequence for you to ignore in your 15 minutes of shame
You can choose your sin but you can never choose your fate
Don't make love by the garden gate
Love may be blind but the neighbours ain't so
Be mindful of the words you use,
Some sit in judgement, some stand accused
Some feel better while some feel abused
In your 15 minutes of shame
The walk you walk
The time it takes
The talk you talk
The love you make
The deal you break
The smile you fake
The hand you shake
The deal you break
Charming smile, beguiled (the walk you walk, the time it takes)
Invited back to the Country pile (the talk you talk, the love you make)
Deals done in respectable style (the deal you break, the smile you fake)
In your 15 minutes of shame (the hand you shake, the deal you break)
Sharp suit, new recruit (the walk you walk, the time it takes)
You're never too small to contribute (the talk you talk, the love you make)
Or bring the family into disrepute (the deal you break, the smile you fake)
In your 15 minutes of shame (the hand you shake, the deal you break)
All's fair in love and war (the walk you walk, the time it takes)
But that's not what we came here for (the talk you talk, the love you make)
Another consequence for you to ignore (the deal you break, the smile you fake)
In your 15 minutes of shame (the hand you shake, the deal you break)
So be mindful of the words you use (the walk you walk, the time it takes)
Some sit in judgement, some stand accused (the talk you talk, the love you make)
Some feel better while some feel abused (the deal you break, the smile you fake)
In your 15 minutes of (the hand you...)
Shame
