Pet Shop Boys - Left To My Own Devices / Rhythm Of The Night Lyrics

I get out of bed at half past tenPhone up a friend, who's a party animalTurn on the news and drink some teaMaybe if you're with me we'll do some shoppingOne day I'll read, or learn to drive a carIf you pass the test, you can beat the restBut I don't like to compete, or talk street, street, streetI can pick up the best from the party animalI could leave you, say goodbyeOr I could love you, if I tryAnd I couldAnd left to my own devices, I probably wouldLeft to my own devices, I probably wouldPick up a brochure about the sunLearn to ignore what the photographer sawI was always told that you should join a clubStick with the gang, if you want to belongI was a lonely boy, no strength, no joyIn a world of my own at the back of the gardenI didn't want to compete, or play out on the streetFor in a secret life I was a round head generalI could leave you, say goodbyeOr I could love you, if I tryAnd I couldAnd left to my own devices, I probably wouldLeft to my own devices, I probably wouldOh, I wouldI was faced with a choice at a difficult ageWould I write a book? Or should I take to the stage?But in the back of my head I heard distant feetChe Guevara and Debussy to a disco beatThis is the rhythm of the nightOne night, oh yeah,the rhythm of the night,This is the rhythm of my life,one life, oh yeah,the rhythm of my life.This is the rhythm of the nightOne night, oh yeah,the rhythm of the night,This is the rhythm of my life,one life, oh yeah,the rhythm of my life.It's not a crime when you look the way you doThe way I like to picture youWhen I get home, it's late at nightI pour a drink and watch the fightTurn off the TV, look at a bookPick up the phone, fix some foodMaybe I'll sit up all night and dayWaiting for the minute I hear you sayI could leave you, say goodbyeOr I could love you, if I tryAnd I couldAnd left to my own devices, I probably wouldCome on, baby, say goodbyeI could love you, if I tryAnd I couldAnd left to my own devices, I probably wouldLeft to my own devices, I probably wouldLeft to my own devices, I probably wouldIf I was left to my own devices, I possibly would
