Ray Davies
I’m in Disgrace
[Verse 1]
The first time that I saw you
You were the lady of my dreams
The very next time I had to make you mine
And I treated you like a queen
The third time that I saw you
You treated me with such distaste
Now I wish I'd never seen your face

[Chorus]
I'm in disgrace
I'm in disgrace
Because I fell for your pretty face
I'm in disgrace (He's in disgrace)
I'm in disgrace (He's in disgrace)
You captured me in your embrace

[Verse 2]
There's no use blaming me
And saying I was your ruination
'Cause it was you equally
Who got us into the situation

[Interlude]
It wasn't lust, it wasn't rape
It was just a mistake
[Chorus]
I'm in disgrace (He's in disgrace)
I'm in disgrace (He's in disgrace)
Because I fell for your pretty face
I'm in disgrace (She's in disgrace)
I'm in disgrace (He's in disgrace)
You captured me in your embrace

[Verse 3]
Was your love real or faked?
Or was it only infatuation?
Picture you in my place
I wish I'd acted with a little less haste

[Chorus]
I'm in disgrace
I'm in disgrace
Because I fell for your pretty face
Oh, what a waste (He's in disgrace)
I'm in disgrace (He's in disgrace)
Now my name's dirt and I'm disgraced

[Outro]
Uh-huh, oh, oh
I'm in disgrace
