Pet Shop Boys - Odd Man Out lyrics
[Pet Shop Boys - Odd Man Out lyrics]
Close the shop pull down the blinds
If anyone asks why tell them it's time
I thought he'd come back he said he would
The blighter's done himself in
I can't believe he could
Nature's played me a dirty trick
I'm going to disappear
I want a few years peace and quiet
Far away from here
The law says I'm a criminal
But, I can't help the way I am
Trying to find some kind of love
The only way I can
I'm an odd man out discretion guaranteed
I don't scream and shout
But, I know what I need i'm an odd man out
An outlaw on the run
There's quite a few of us about in 1961
One day these laws
Will be swept into the bin
No more blackmail or jail
No one doing himself in times will change
Too late to right the wrong
Boy Barrett's dead and gone
I'm an odd man out discretion guaranteed
I don't scream and shout
But cut me and I'll bleed i'm an odd man out
An outlaw on the run
There's quite a few of us about in 1961
Nature played me a dirty trick i'm
Going to see I get a
Few years peace and quiet in return
You've got a big position
They'd listen to you you ought to be able
To state our case tell them there's no
Magic cure for how we are
Certainly not behind
Prison bars, come to feel like a criminal, an
Outlaw do you know what I think
Mr farr? I think Boy Barrett's well out of it
If anyone asks why tell them it's time
I thought he'd come back he said he would
The blighter's done himself in
I can't believe he could
Nature's played me a dirty trick
I'm going to disappear
I want a few years peace and quiet
Far away from here
The law says I'm a criminal
But, I can't help the way I am
Trying to find some kind of love
The only way I can
I'm an odd man out discretion guaranteed
I don't scream and shout
But, I know what I need i'm an odd man out
An outlaw on the run
There's quite a few of us about in 1961
One day these laws
Will be swept into the bin
No more blackmail or jail
No one doing himself in times will change
Too late to right the wrong
Boy Barrett's dead and gone
I'm an odd man out discretion guaranteed
I don't scream and shout
But cut me and I'll bleed i'm an odd man out
An outlaw on the run
There's quite a few of us about in 1961
Nature played me a dirty trick i'm
Going to see I get a
Few years peace and quiet in return
You've got a big position
They'd listen to you you ought to be able
To state our case tell them there's no
Magic cure for how we are
Certainly not behind
Prison bars, come to feel like a criminal, an
Outlaw do you know what I think
