Lyrics The Pretenders

The Pretenders

Who's Who

When we meet again

Just refer to me as "back then"

Or pretend not to recall

Ever knowing me at all

Or hanging round my door

Begging for more

When you begin

Playing to win

That's when the losers rush in

I got better than you

At jumping the queue

To get closer to seeing who's who

A man without a home

Is never alone

Well, just look at what he's got

The whole parking lot

In those unsheltered places

There's always other faces

Take mine for a start

It's like a modern work of art

Disturbing and lacking in heart

I got better than you

At jumping the queue

To get closer to seeing who's who

Must be so wonderful

Being you every day

Oh, it must be so wonderful

Always getting your way

A common dialogue

Is the best thing that you'll get

From ther woman you call your wife

So try not to forget

To tear out and burn

The things you unlearn

Your future exists

In her shopping lists

Please call your office

I got better than you

At jumping the queue

To get closer to seeing who's who

I got better than you

I got better than you
