You Know Where You Went Wrong Lyrics

Pet Shop Boys You Know Where You Went Wrong

Two men up the street
Drinking something cheap
No home, no family
It's cold, nowhere to sleep
Passers-by never catch their eye
Anywhere, one man drinks, the other swears
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
The old man can understand
No one will shake his hand
I gave security, bonds and colour TV
It cost a few a lives
Someone's son always dies
No one shakes his hand
He will understand
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
          This is the history of the world
          Of every boy and every girl
          Who don't understand what's going on anymore
          The history of the world
          Of every boy and every girl
          Who don't understand what's going on anymore
               (What's going on?)
Two girls have a photograph
One looks, the other laughs
It could have been mine
Why did I change my mind?
Their hands on hips
The other girl says: Admit! Admit!
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
          This is the history of the world (Aaaaaah)
          Of every boy and every girl
          Who don't (who don't) understand (understand)
               what's going on anymore (what's going on?)
          The history of the world (Ooooh)
          Of every boy and every girl (Every boy and girl)
          Who don't (who don't) understand (understand)
               what's going on anymore (what's going on?)
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     (Aaaah)
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     (Aaaah)
     (Aaaah)
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     (Aaaah) You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     You know
     You know where you went wrong
     You know where you went wrong
     You know
