pet shop boys - let to my own devices (seven-inch mix) lyrics
i get out of bed at half past ten
phone up a friend who’s a party animal
turn on the news and drink some tea
maybe if you’re with me we’ll do some shopping
one day i’ll read or learn to drive a car
if you p-ss the test, you can beat the rest
but i don’t like to compete or talk street, street, street
i can pick up the best from the party animal
i could leave you
say good-bye
or i could love you
if i try
and i could
and left to my own devices
i probably would
left to my own devices
i probably would
pick up a brochure about the sun
learn to ignore what the photographer saw
i was always told that you should join a club
stick with the gang if you want to belong
i was a lonely boy, no strength, no joy
in a world of my own at the back of the garden
i didn’t want to compete or play out on the street
for in a secret life i was a roundhead general
i could leave you
say good-bye
or i could love you
if i try
and i could
and left to my own devices
i probably would
left to my own devices
i probably would
oh, i would
i was faced with a choice at a difficult age
would i write a book? or should i take to the stage?
but in the back of my head i heard distant feet
che guevara and debussy to a disco beat
it’s not a crime when you look the way you do
the way i like to picture you
when i get home, it’s late at night
i pour a drink and watch the fight
turn off the tv, look at a book
pick up the phone, fix some food
maybe i’ll sit up all night and day
waiting for the minute i hear you say
i could leave you
say good-bye
or i could love you
if i try
and i could
and left to my own devices
i probably would
come on, baby
say good-bye
i could love you
if i try
and i could
and left to my own devices
i probably would
left to my own devices
i probably would
out of bed at half past ten
the party animal phones a friend
picks up news about the sun
and the working day has just begun
sticks with the gang at the back of the street
p-ss the test and he don’t compete
drive the car, if you’re with me
che guevara’s drinking tea
he reads about a new device
and takes to the stage in a secret life
(i would if i could)
left to my own devices
i probably would
if i was left to my own devices
i possibly would
(i would if i could)
if i was left to my own devices
i probably would
if i was left to my own devices
i probably would
i could leave you
say good-bye
or i could love you
if i try
and i could
and left to my own devices
i probably would
left to my own devices
i probably would
come on, baby
left to my own devices
i probably would
