Embarrassment Lyrics:

Original songwriter: Michael Barson, Lee Jay Thompson Received 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 and 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 that's what they'll think

We 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?

No committment 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 he don't wanna know

He says this is a serious matter

Too late to reconsider no one's gonna wanna know ya

Our mum she don't wanna know

She says

I'm feelin' twice as old

She says

Thought she had

A head on her shoulder

'Cos I'm feelin' twice as older

I'm feelin' twice as older

You're an embarrassment

Artist Information

Madness are an English ska band from Camden Town, London, that formed in 1976. One of the most prominent bands of the late 1970s and early 1980s 2 Tone ska revival, they continue to perform with their most recognised line-up of seven members. Madness achieved most of their success in the early to mid 1980s. Both Madness and UB40 spent 214 weeks on the UK singles charts over the course of the decade, holding the record for most weeks spent by a group in the 1980s UK singles charts. However, Madness achieved this in a shorter time period (1980–1986).
