Del Amitri

Del Amitri were a Scottish alternative rock band, formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 1983. The band grew out of Justin Currie's Jordanhill College School band and came together after teenager Currie placed an advertisement in the window of a music store asking for people who could play to contact him. The band was formed with the original line-up of Currie (bass and vocals), Iain Harvie (lead guitar), Bryan Tolland (guitar) and Paul Tyagi (drums). Currie and Harvie are the only members of the band to remain present throughout its history. They are also the main songwriters of the group. more »

I'm writing a poem, it's not about you
But this guy  you might know him
He's a clown too
Shame, shame, shame

Well, he's got your name
Dresses the same way
And he acts like the star
Of his own play
He's a typical guy
When he has whiskey in his veins
Just like you and I he lives in shame

He started a fight with a building
He's always looking for nights
To get killed in
He waltzes through life
With typical disdain
Just like you and I he lives in shame

Shame at the states we get in
Shame at the places we've been
Shame at the wells, shame at the bells
Shit what the hell, for everything else
We'll take the blame
Without shame

So I'm forging ahead with or without you
Meet me at the edge of the cliff
You know you want to
Typical guys, want to go out like a flame
So much better to die
Than live in shame
