Lyrics Pet Shop Boys

Pet Shop Boys

Twenty-something

Twenty-something

good as new

Expectations

got a few

Find an issue

get ahead

Got it sorted

like you said

You’re twenty-something

Join the queue

Twenty-something

in the mix

Always that

ironic twist

Got a start-up

good to go

when the money

starts to flow

Oh, Twenty-something

up to tricks

That’s how you are

or have to be

in a decadent city

at a time of greed

You can make believe

that it’s all you need

Sometimes it’s hard

day to day

to pay your way

Twenty-something

Quite a catch

Think you'll ever

meet your match?

You’ve always been somewhat choosy

but you’ll love her for the length

of a good movie

Oh, Twenty-something

Call her back

That's how you are

or have to be in a decadent city

at a time of greed

You can make believe

that it’s all you need

Take your smart phone

and make your way home

on your own

Twenty-something

Hard to beat

Check your reflection

walking down the street

Thirty’s calling

round the bend

Will your ideas

ever trend?

Oh, Twenty-something

feel the heat

Find an issue

get ahead

Got it sorted

like you said

You’re twenty-something

and so to bed

That’s how you are

or have to be

in a decadent city

at a time of greed

You can make believe

that it’s all you need

Sometimes it’s hard

day to day

to pay your way
