IT'S A DAMN SHAME
First recorded in 2011 as "It's A Damn Shame". A solo home recording in the Computer Room. Released for the first time on Gritty's debut compilation I'm Not A Musician (September 2012) as the 1st track. One of Gritty's favorite to play and a live staple - often shortened to "Damn Shame". The G. Gordon Gritty Band recorded a live studio version at Pink Noise in January 2020.
The original lyrics: Oh if you told me that you really loved me I wouldn't have left. The way out was two feet. I was standing on my own damn two feet. The telephone rang off the hook. I didn't even know where to look. I was stuck in forever. I was stuck in 'til never. It's a damn shame. It's a damn shame. It's a damn shame.
Themes: Literalism, mystery
