Pet Shop Boys - How Can You Expect To Be lyrics

You live upon a stage and everyone agrees
You're the brightest hope by far
That anyone can see so when you take the
Limelight you can guarantee
You're getting fame and claiming credibility
Tell me baby are you gonna
Get high as a kite?
Tell me baby are gonna let
It happen every night?
How can you expect to be taken seriously?
You live within the law and everyone assumes
You must find this a bore
And try something new
You're an intellectual giant and authority
To preach and teach the
Whole world about ecology
Tell me baby are you gonna
Make any other claim?
Tell me baby are you gonna
Take any of the blame?
How can you expect to be taken seriously?
How can you expect to be taken
Seriously? (Seriously, Seriously)
You live within the headlines
So everyone can see
You're supporting every new
Cause even royalty
You're another major artist on a higher plane
Do you think they'll put you the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
Tell me baby how to generate longevity
Tell me baby how you really hate publicity
How can you expect to be taken seriously?
How can you expect to be taken
Seriously? (Seriously) seriously
Oh do you have a message for your fans?
How can you expect to be taken seriously?
How can you expect to be taken
Seriously? (Seriously) seriously (Seriously)
Seriously oh seriously
