Crying Shame Lyrics

"Crying Shame" is the B-side to Supermassive Black Hole. It was first played 19 December 2004 at the Earls Court Exhibition Centre. The key was changed during the 2005 tour, and the studio track omits the riff found in the earlier live version. The lyrics also appear to have changed, and this is the first studio release in which lead singer Matthew Bellamy swears. Original (live) lyrics: Too long, You’ve cut too far, I’ll love as soon as I’ll, Reveal your true side, New (studio) lyrics: Too much, And we demolished too much, And yeah we really fucked it up, And yeah baby you've lost your touch. Before the release of Supermassive Black Hole, it was widely rumoured that "Crying Shame" would be the first single off the new album. Thus forth, a huge internet uproar. Rolling Stone announced (and many websites carried this message) that it was to be the first single, however these stories were soon proven to be false, with a message by Muse declaring "Crying Shame isn't going to be the first single."
