City of Shame

It was in the city of shame

That I found I wasn't to blame

I was looking for a weird thing or two

I discovered that it had to be you

It was in the city of fear

That I shouted 'Is there nobody here?'

Though the echo had the name on a ring

Still the echo wasn't called anything

La, la, la, la, la, la, la

It was in the city of love

All the flesh I ate was never enough

Though I knew it wasn't good for my soul

My body hungered for the ultimate goal

It was in the city of spies

That I spoke with nothing but lies

When they set a trap for all you could feel

It's important that your mind is concealed

La, la, la, la, la, la, la

It was in the city of shapes

That she made love to several apes

She felt weird for a couple of days

Pretty soon she got used to their ways

It was in the city of fools

That she sold her beautiful jewels

Someone bought them and sold them again

Now they've been bought by several men

La, la, la, la, la, la, la
