Too Bad by The Faces

Too bad, we was thrown downstairs
We never got a chance to sing
We were quite polite with one invite
To keep us off the street

So we mingled for a minute or two
With the high class clientele
And then somebody said who invited them
Them that crowd of refugees, get out

What an insult to be shown the door
Before we could shake a leg
I was most intrigued by the colored queen
Bleeding on the kitchen door

Then I was ushered with my friends
By the butler who was twelve feet tall
Well, let me please explain that we're not to blame
We just don't have the right accent, no, no

All we wanted to do
Was to socialize
Oh, you know it's a shame
I was always getting the blame

All we wanted to do
Was to socialize
Oh, you know it's a shame
I was always getting the blame

Twenty girls, damp hotels
Is where I'm gonna stay
'Cause now I see what it's all about
I didn't at the old school side

Don't worry, we had more fun
Waiting for the all night bus
Too bad, my regional tongue
Gave us away again
