Left To My Own Devices

In the style of

Pet Shop Boys

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 pass 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 goodbye
or i could love you if i try

and i could

and 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 goodbye
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 goodbye
or i could love you if i try

and i could

and left to my own devices

i probably would

come on baby say goodbye
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
