Suburbia's a slipstream |
|
to a memory |
|
of a time when you were |
|
close to me |
|
I pretend |
|
I'm there again |
|
I close my eyes and see you |
|
better than before |
|
then I feel you touch me |
|
and it's 1984 |
|
I know what you will say |
|
before you start |
|
in my heart |
|
|
|
We're the Pet Shop Boys |
|
We're the Pet Shop Boys |
|
|
|
Every thought's a fashion |
|
or a crime |
|
and every boy is just |
|
a waste of time |
|
but I pretend |
|
it was different then |
|
Maybe it's a habit |
|
Maybe it's a sin |
|
But I find out |
|
when I try it on |
|
it crawls beneath my skin |
|
Once it gets inside me |
|
it won't go |
|
Now I know |
|
|
|
We're the Pet Shop Boys |
|
We're the Pet Shop Boys |
|
|
|
Rent |
|
Shopping |
|
Being boring |
|
It's alright |
|
It's a sin |
|
I'm not scared |
|
In denial |
|
I want a dog |
|
I want a lover |
|
Can you forgive her? |
|
Do I have to? |
|
What have I? What have I? |
|
What have I done to deserve this? |
|
|
|
We're the Pet Shop Boys |
|
We're the Pet Shop Boys |
