Pet Shop Boys – A Red Letter Day
Go to work and take your calls
Hang the fruits Of your labor on the walls Such precision and care What does it matter If there’s no one here to shareThe flowers in the garden
The wine The «Waiting for Godot» And so much modern time?All I want
Is what you want I’m always waiting For a red letter dayThe years perfecting a stance
Of measured cool Fade into insignificance The moment one starts to understand What on earth Does it profit a man?All I want
Is what you want I’m always waiting For a red letter dayFor something special
Somehow new Someone saying ‘I love you’ Baby, I’m waiting For that red letter dayYou can sneer
Or disappear behind a veneer Of self-control But for all of those who don’t fit in Who follow their instincts And are told they sin This is a prayer for A different wayAll I want
Is what you want I’m always waiting For a red letter dayLike Christmas morning
When you’re a kid Admit you love me And you always did Baby I’m hoping For that red letter day Today
