Left To My Own Devices - Pet Shop Boys[00:00:00]
Written by:Chris Lowe/Neil Tennant[00:00:02]
I get out of bed at half past ten[00:01:55]
Phone up a friend who's a party animal[00:01:58]
Turn on the news and drink some tea[00:02:02]
Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping[00:02:05]
One day I'll read or learn to drive a car[00:02:10]
If you pass the test you can beat the rest[00:02:13]
But I don't like to compete or talk street street street[00:02:17]
I can pick up the best from the party animal[00:02:21]
I could leave you say goodbye[00:02:26]
Or I could love you if I try[00:02:30]
And I could[00:02:34]
And left to my own devices I probably would[00:02:36]
And left to my own devices I probably would[00:02:44]
Pick up a brochure about the sun[00:02:52]
Learn to ignore what the photographer saw[00:02:55]
I was always told that you should join a club[00:02:59]
Stick with the gang if you want to belong[00:03:03]
I was a lonely boy no strength no joy[00:03:06]
In a world of my own at the back of the garden[00:03:10]
I didn't want to compete or play out on the street[00:03:14]
For in a secret life I was a round head general[00:03:17]
I could leave you say goodbye[00:03:23]
Or I could love you if I try[00:03:27]
And I could[00:03:31]
And left to my own devices I probably would[00:03:33]
Left to my own devices I probably would oh I would[00:03:41]
I was faced with a choice at a difficult age[00:03:59]
Would I write a book or should I take to the stage[00:04:03]
But in the back of my head I heard distant feet[00:04:07]
Che Guevara and Debussy to a disco beat[00:04:10]
It's not a crime when you look the way you do[00:04:18]
The way I like to picture you[00:04:22]
When I get home it's late at night[00:04:26]
I pour a drink and watch the fight[00:04:30]
Turn off the TV look at a book[00:04:34]
Pick up the phone fix some food[00:04:37]
Maybe I'll sit up all night and day[00:04:41]
Waiting for the minute I hear you say[00:04:45]
I could leave you say goodbye[00:04:56]
Or I could love you if I try[00:04:59]
And I could[00:05:03]
And left to my own devices I probably would[00:05:06]
Come on baby say goodbye[00:05:11]
I could love you if I try[00:05:15]
And I could[00:05:18]
And left to my own devices I probably would[00:05:21]
Left to my own devices I probably would[00:05:29]
Out of bed at half past ten[00:05:44]
The party animal phones a friend[00:05:47]
Picks up news about the sun[00:05:51]
And the working day has just begun[00:05:54]
Sticks with the gang at the back of the street[00:06:14]
Pass the test and don't compete[00:06:18]
Drive the car if you're with me[00:06:29]
Che Guevara's drinking tea[00:06:33]
He reads about a new device[00:06:36]
And takes to the stage in a secret life[00:06:40]
Left to my own devices I probably would[00:06:52]
If I was left to my own devices I possibly would[00:06:59]
If I was left to my own devices I probably would[00:07:14]
Left to my own devices I probably would[00:07:22]
I could leave you say goodbye[00:07:27]
Or I could love you if I try[00:07:31]
And I could[00:07:35]
And left to my own devices I probably would[00:07:37]
Left to my own devices I probably would[00:07:45]
Come on baby[00:07:50]
Left to my own devices I probably would[00:07:52]
