Karaoké Left to My Own Devices Pet Shop Boys

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
