Shame
Cartouche Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To let you know tonight that I love
How you make me feel like a dove
Yeah
Stronger and stronger, more and more I'm in love
Let me kiss you and you'll realize
I'm the sunshine in your life
Shame
Oh what a shame
Shame shame
But a shame
It's a just a shame
Oh what a shame
Shame shame
It's a just a shame
You don't be so shy
You have to be a real guy
Don't be so blind
I'm crazy just for you
And ... you give me
The things that make me happy
I just ... you
... I belong to you
In the first verse of Cartouche's song "Shame", she expresses her love and appreciation for someone who makes her feel "like a dove". She wants to let this person know that she is becoming increasingly more enamored with them and hopes to have the opportunity to kiss them. The lyrics are upbeat and filled with positive energy, as the singer encourages them to dance and enjoy the moment.
However, the tone shifts in the chorus when Cartouche laments the shame of not being able to fully express her feelings for this person. She urges them not to be shy and to embrace their feelings, as she herself is "crazy just for" them. The repetition of the word "shame" underscores the sadness and frustration of the situation, as the singer feels constrained by societal expectations or perhaps by the other person's lack of reciprocation.
Overall, the song conveys a sense of yearning and vulnerability, as Cartouche bares her heart to the object of her affection. Despite the joyful energy of the opening verse, the shame and sadness in the chorus make it clear that this is not just another happy-go-lucky love song.

Swing your body, right to left

I'm the rapper who fell in love
But I'm too shy to make you my girl
