Pet Shop Boys - Requiem in Denim and Leopardskin lyrics

I thought it was like a film Reviewed but never seen Where everybody played themselves As a drama king or queen The music was overwhelming Glittering and thin Solemn and shabby like a requiem In denim and leopardskin I visualised the flashback School, punk rock, success Parties, too much of everything the clichés, the candles, the mess Lucien in the scene with David Brian in a tux A copy of Blitz in Zanzibar Old Hollywood redux Ossie's last collection Biba's closing sale A little more rouge on the powdered cheeks But the base is pale This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin It ended with a motorbike A search for evidence Poring over old photographs To make it all fake sense Glamorous in its own way Shouting above the din Solemn and shabby like a requiem In denim and leopardskin Johnny's wearing brothel-creepers Malcolm's round the block Adam's in a Jarman film The look is 'Let It Rock' A Johnson's leather jacket Hair by Keith at Smile All you need to make it big Is s** and style This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin This is our last chance for goodbye Let the music begin Shining and soaring like a requiem In denim and leopardskin
