If I'd know what I know now
Then I'd have shown a little more know how
And I'd have sold my soul by now
If I had known what I know now

If I'd know what I know now
Then I'd have shown a little more know how
And I'd have sold my soul by now
If I had known what I know now

Smile on street corners with a leather jacket
Walking like a peacock with your hands in your pockets
Checking all your make up just to check you're the night kid
Check you got enough of this to get through the night so

Shame on you
What a bad thing to do
I said shame on you
Shame on me too
Shame on you

If I'd known what I know now
Then I'd have shown how much I love you
And I'd have blown the back of my head through
If I had known what I know now

If I'd known what I know now
Then I'd have shown a little respect now
And I'd have signed my own cheque now
If I had known what I know now

I got me all my records from a market in Peking
Speaking like they're looking and they look like they're speaking
The feather's on fire, but the world is still turning
Beggars can't learn, so you end up learning

Shame on you
What a bad thing to do
I said shame on you
Shame on me too
Shame on you

Shame on you
