[Verse 1]

Long time coming

Seemed to get me through

Long time coming

Many served the few

Long to taste the shame

That bows down before you

[Verse 2]

Long time coming

It seemed to get me by

Long time coming

It seemed to satisfy

You longed to taste the shame

That everybody tries

[Chorus]

Shame, shame

Throw yourself away

Give me little bits of

More than I can take

If it sits upon your tongue

Or naked in your eyes

Give me little bits of

More than I can try

[Post-Chorus]

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

[Verse 1]

Long time coming

It seemed to get me through

Long time coming

Many served the few

And long to taste the shame

That bows down before you

[Pre-Chorus]

Yeah!

[Chorus]

Shame, shame

Throw yourself away

Give me little bits of

More than I can take

If it sits upon your tongue

Or naked in your eye

Give me little bits of

More than I can try

[Post-Chorus]

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

Throw yourself away

[Outro]

Long time coming

Long time coming
