It's A Shame (My Sister)

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 playin with your mind?

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

It's a shame, the way you mess around with my heart

It's a shame, the way you hurt me!

Get back on your feet please

I'm beggin you to check out all your own needs

Don't let nobody see you in a state of grievin, over the brother

there's another possibility

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 comin from

Get it out your system, don't be another victim

This took the nerve, oh boy, he really picked em, whaddya know

It's time for you to show you're not sleepin

A progress report on the two of you, you're keepin

Peekin through the peephole, to see if honey's sneakin

You estimated right, that night the other weekend

Collectively the facts should conclude the decision

You caught the brother in a terrible disposition

It's a shame, the way you mess around with my heart

It's a shame, the way you hurt me!

That's it, pack it up, be wise my sister

cause the facts keep stackin up, tell him, to kiss the you know what

Make sure the door is shut, behind you

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

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

And smack you with an irksome vengeance as it attacks you

Makin 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 cryin shame

It's a shame, the way you mess around with my heart

It's a shame, the way you hurt me!
