Johnny is something special
He already knows how to read
He's got a stereo
He's got MTV
He knows about evolution
They teach it at school every day
They talk about Marx and Lenin
But they don't pray

It's a shame, shame, shame
It's a shame, shame to see
Shame, shame, shame
Shame on you, shame on me

Janie has got a boyfriend
She sees him at school every day
And when they get old enough
They're gonna be engaged
They got a situation
They can't tell their parents about
A few dollars make it easy
To work things out

It's a shame, shame, shame
It's a shame, shame to see
Shame, shame, shame
Shame on you, shame on me

It's up to you and it's up to me
We are the children of the Light
There is a time to be on our knees
And there's a time to stand and fight

It's a shame, shame, shame
Shame on you, shame on me
