Pet Shop Boys - "Rent"






(again... again... again... ooooh
(again... again... again... again... ...)

You dress me up, I'm your puppet
You buy me things, I love it
You bring me food, I need it
You give me love, I feed it

And look at the two of us in sympathy
With everything we see
I never want anything, it's easy
You buy whatever I need
But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

You phone me in the evening on hearsay
And bought me caviar
You took me to a restaurant off broadway
To tell me who you are

We never ever argue, we never calculate
The currency we've spent
(ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
Im your puppet
I love it

And look at the two of us in sympathy
And sometimes ecstasy
Words mean so little, and money less
When you are lying next to me

But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

I don't think there was a bad song on this album, but this song was definitely one of the best of the lot.

Liza's version is better.

Great track. I love the album verison of this song. Neil shows that his vocals aren't as mechanical as people claim toward the last singing of the chorus.

Well...the live version from the Concrete album (with the same arrangments of lisa's version) are better

I've heard a few renditions that were better than Neil's incliding Liza's.
