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
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
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?
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
We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys
We're the Pet Shop Boys
