PET SHOP BOYS - Birthday Boy lyrics

rate me

Birthday boy Can't explain Christmas Eve He's born again On the line a broken train going nowhere endless rain Birthday boy so afraid plays the machines in the arcade Oh baby do you remember he's been through all this before? Spent the summer getting nowhere Taking all of the blame for the city calculating from pain comes pity Christmas Eve a time of joy if you believe in Birthday boy This time around it's all a mistake Is he deluded or just a fake? Oh baby do you remember he's been through all this before? Spent the summer getting nowhere Taking all of the blame for the city calculating from pain comes pity If you knew his name would you feel the same? If you knew his name? Birthday boy stands apart as the drama's about to start A quick betrayal A speedy trial As before Complete denial Oh baby do you remember he's been through all this before? Spent the summer getting nowhere Taking all of the blame for the city calculating From pain comes pity If you knew his name would you feel the same?
