Pet Shop Boys — Requiem in Denim and Leopardskin

[Verse 1] I thought it was like a film Reviewed but never seen Where everybody played themselves As a drama king or queen The music was overwhelming Glittering and thin Solemn and shabby like a requiem In denim and leopardskin [Verse 2] I visualised the flashback School, punk rock, success Parties, too much of everything The clichés, the candles, the mess [Pre-Chorus] Lucien in the scene with David Brian in a tux A copy of Blitz in Zanzibar Old Hollywood redux Ossie's last collection Biba's closing sale A little more rouge on the powdered cheeks But the base is pale [Chorus] This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin [Verse 3] It ended with a motorbike A search for evidence Poring over old photographs To make it all fake sense Glamorous in its own way Shouting above the din Solemn and shabby like a requiem In denim and leopardskin [Pre-Chorus] Johnny's wearing brothel-creepers Malcolm's round the block Adam's in a Jarman film The look is 'Let It Rock' A Johnson's leather jacket Hair by Keith at Smile All you need to make it big Is sex and style [Chorus] This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin [Chorus] This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin [Chorus] This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin [Chorus] This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin
