Pet Shop Boys - This Must Be The Place I Waited Years To Leave
------------------------------------------

(tennant/lowe)
----------------
(everybody e-e-everybody
everybody e-e-everybody
everybody e-e-everybody
everybody jump to attention...)
Each morning after sunblest
feel the benefit, mental arithmetic
i waited by the staffroom
in time for benediction
 living a law just short of delusion
 when we fall in love theres confusion
 this must be the place i waited years to leave
To our voices nobodys listening
we shiver in the rain by the touchline
then a coach ride to the station
my lord, the carriage awaiteth!
 living a law just short of delusion
 when we fall in love theres confusion
 this must be the place i waited years to leave
 this must be the place i waited years to leave
 and how
 how long?
Im listening to the words i thought id never hear again
a litany of saints and other ordinary men
kneeling on the parquet
whatever has gone wrong?
the fear and feeling hopelessness
i dont want to belong
I dreamt i was back in uniform
and a candidate for examination
history, someone had blundered
and a voice rapped knuckle under!
 living a law just short of delusion
 when we fall in love theres confusion
 this must be the place i waited years to leave
 this must be the place i waited years to leave
 and how
 and how
 how long?
(trebuet nash narod odnogo)
 [our people demand only...]
