Birthday Boy Lyrics - Release - Pet Shop Boys

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?
