Pet Shop Boys — Jack the Lad

[Verse 1] Lawrence in the desert How was he to know Under so much pressure From the men back home? [Pre-Chorus] Play with fire, you must be mad Are you only Jack the Lad? Play with guns, you must be bad Or hiding something, Jack [Verse 2] Telling lies in public Breaking codes at home Underneath the blankets For another role [Pre-Chorus] Tell these lies, you must be mad Are you only Jack the Lad? To feast with panthers every night You must be careful, Jack! [Chorus] Don't let them try to restrain you This is your only religion Don't let them try to detain you You're not the only fool [Post-Chorus] We all fall, even Jack the Lad We all fall, even Jack the Lad Will fall [Verse 3] Philby in the desert Looking for a phone Waiting on the pavement For a call from home [Pre-Chorus] Play with fire, you must be mad Are you only Jack the Lad? Turn your back on friends you had They must have hurt you, Jack! [Chorus] Don't let them try to restrain you This is your only religion Don't let them try to detain you You're not the only fool [Post-Chorus] We all fall, even Jack the Lad We all fall, even Jack the Lad [Chorus] Don't let them try to restrain you This is your only religion Don't let them try to detain you You're not the only fool [Post-Chorus] We all fall, even Jack the Lad We all fall, even Jack the Lad Will fall
