"Shame"

1. The subject is shame and the tone is hopeful.
2. 'Boatloads', 'I swear', 'strutted'
     In the song, it seems like it's just kind of there, it's not really sad, mad, or happy. He's just showing his feelings and putting them in an easy way to understand, and this is why I think he used 'boatloads', 'I swear', and 'strutted'. They're general words that don't really have a positive or negative connotation, and that's how they set the tone.
