Reputation (PET SHOP BOYS CON DUSTY SPRINGFIELD)

IN PRIVATE (Tennant/Lowe)

Take your time and tell me
Were you lying?
I realise
That we've been found out this time

We should stand together
If we can
But what you planned
Means there's a difference between ...

     What you're gonna say in private
     You still want my love, we're in this together
     And what you're gonna do in public
     Say you were never in love that you can remember

So discreet (She's so discreet)
I never tried to meet (She never)
Your friends or interfere (No)
I took a back seat (Back seat) between ...

     On what you're gonna say in private
     You still want my love, we're in this together
     And what you're gonna do in public
     Say you were never in love that you can remember

          What you gonna say
          When you run back to your wife
          I guess it's just the story of my life
          What you gonna say

So take your time
And tell me, when did you lie
Or I may publicise (No)
That there's a difference (A difference) between (between)

     On what you're gonna say in private
     You still want my love, we're in this together
     And what you're gonna do in public
     Say you were never in love that you can remember

     Tell me what you gonna say (In private) Oooh
     (You still want my love, we're in this together)
     What you gonna say, what you gonna do
     (And what you're gonna do) Baby 
     (in public) What you gonna say
     (Say you were never in love) Oooh 
     (that you can remember) What you gonna say
     Say in private


DAYDREAMING (Tennant/Lowe)

(You've gotta wake up)

You don't commit to me, you won't make a start
You don't tell me no, you haven't got the heart
You sit in the chair or you lie in bed
With a faraway stare and a swollen head
Well listen here, my lover, I have had enough
And I can tell you, brother, I could fall in love
With someone who looks a lot like you
But gets up and does what he's thinking of

I can't wait another day
I can give and I can take
There's a choice you have to make

     So many times things pass you by
     Imagination running wild
     You've got to start choosing right from wrong
     Instead of daydreaming all day long

I want to catch a plane to an open space
I want to feel the sun shining on my face
But time is short and waiting is long
My patience is exhausted, I'm just not that strong
I want to see the parade, you wanna watch TV
So we don't do either, it's insanity
You say there's plenty of time, and life is good
So you never make your mind up, well, you never could

I can ask you when or why
And you'll look up to the sky
The parade is marching by

     So many times things pass you by
     Imagination running wild
     You've got to start choosing right from wrong
     Instead of daydreaming all day long
     (Daydreaming) Oooh
     (Daydreaming)
     (Daydreaming)
     (Daydreaming) Oooh
     (Daydreaming)
     (Daydreaming)

(You've gotta wake up, you've gotta wake up)
(Leave me alone, I'm only dreaming)
(You've gotta wake up, you've gotta wake up)
(Leave me alone, I'm only dreaming)
(You've gotta wake up, you've gotta wake up)
(I'm only dreaming)

I can't wait another day
I can give and I can take
There's a choice I have to make, oooh

     So many times things pass you by
     Imagination running wild
     You've got to start choosing right from wrong
     Instead of daydreaming all day long

     So many times things passing by
     Imagination running wild
     You've got to start choosing right from wrong
     Instead of daydreaming all night long

     (Daydreaming) So many times
     (Daydreaming) Things pass you by
     (Daydreaming) You've gotta choose right from wrong
     (Daydreaming) All day long
     All day long


NOTHING HAS BEEN PROVED (Tennant/Lowe)

Mandy's in the papers, 'cause she tried to go to Spain
She'll soon be in the dock, and in the papers once again
Vicki's got her story about the mirror and the cane
     It may be false, it may be true
     But nothing has been proved

Stephen's in his dressing-gown now, breakfasting alone
Too sick to eat, he's on his feet and to the telephone
The police inspector soothes him with his sympathetic tone
     It may be false, it may be true
     But nothing has been proved

In the House a resignation, guilty faces everyone
Christine's fallen out with Lucky, Johnny's got a gun
"Please, please me"'s number one

(It's a scandal, it's a scandal, such a scandal)

Now Stephen's in the dock for spending money that was earned
By Christine, and the prosecution says the money burned
A hole in Stephen's pocket, for expensive sins he yearned
     It may be false, it may be true
     But nothing has been proved

In the news a suicide note, in the court an empty space
Even Mandy's looking worried, Christine's pale and drawn
"Please, please me"'s number one

(It's a scandal, it's a scandal, such a scandal)

Last night he wrote these words to his friend:
"Sorry about the mess"
"I'm guilty 'til proved innocent in the public eye and press"
The funeral's very quiet, because all his friends have fled
     They may be false, they may be true
     They've all got better things to do
     They may be false, they may be true
     But nothing has been proved, ooh
Nothing
Nothing has been proved
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing


 I WANT TO STAY HERE (Goffin/King)

     (I wanna love you, I wanna love you, I ...)

I don't want to go to the party with you
I don't want to go to the dance
I don't want to go anywhere with you
     I just want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

Now that I can be alone with you
I won't throw away the chance
There's no other place like home with you
     I just want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

All through the week
I miss you so
So, now that I've got you
I'm gonna hold you closer and closer and closer
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
     (Oh, oh, oh)

I don't want to go out walking with you
Now that I am in this trance
I don't even know if I'll talk to you
     I just want to stay here and ...
     (I wanna love you, I wanna love you, I ...)
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) I just want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) I want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) Yes, I want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) Just want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) Baby, baby
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) I want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) Yes, I want to stay here and love you
     (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh) I... I...
