EMBARRASSMENT
Recieved a letter just the other day
Don't seem they wanna know you no more.
They've laid it down, given you their score
Within the first two lines it bluntly read.
You're not to come see us no more,
Keep away from our door
Don't come round here no more
What on earth did you do that for.
Our aunt she don't wanna know she says,
What will the neighbours think, they'll think
We don't thats what they'll think, i don't
But i will 'cos i know they think i don't.
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.
You've made a commitment, you're an embarrassment.
Yes an embarrassment, a living endorsement.
The intention that you have booked
Was an intention that was overlooked.
They say stay away
Don't want you home today
Keep away from our door
Don't come round here no more.
Our dad don't wanna know he says,
This is a serious matter
Too late to reconsider.
No ones gonna wanna know ya.
Our mum she don't wanna know she says,
I'm feeling twice as old she said,
Thought she had a head on her shoulder
Cos i'm feeling twice as older. I'm feeling twice as older.
You're an embarrassment.
(M. Barson, L. Thompson) 1980
