Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 playing with your mind?
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Get back on your feet please
I'm begging you to check out all your own needs
Don't let nobody see you in a state of grieving
Over the brother, there's another possibility
[Verse 5]
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 coming from
[Verse 6]
Get it out your system, don't be another victim
This took the nerve, oh boy, he really picked 'em
What do you know? It's time for you to show you're not sleeping
A progress report on the two of you you're keeping
[Verse 7]
Peeking through the peephole to see if honey's sneaking
You estimated right, that night the other weekend
Collectively the facts should conclude the decision
You caught the brother in a terrible disposition
[Verse 8]
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
[Verse 9]
That's it, pack it up, be wise, my sister
'Cause the facts keep stacking up
Tell him to kiss the you-know-what
Make sure the door is shut behind you
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
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
[Verse 12]
And smack you with an irksome vengeance as it attacks you
Making 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 crying shame
[Verse 13]
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
[Verse 14]
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
[Verse 15]
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
