Lyrics Flamboyant - 7" mix; 2023 Remaster - Pet Shop Boys feat. Felix J. Gauder

Flamboyant
Flamboyant

You live in a world of excess
Where more is more and less is much less
A day without fame is a waste
And a question of need is a question of taste

You're so flamboyant, the way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment is getting more
You want police intervention

You live in a time of decay
When the worth of a man is how much he can play
Every day all the public must know where you are, what you do
'Cause your life is a show

And you're so flamboyant the way you live
And it's not even demeaning
You're so flamboyant, it's like a drug
You used to give your life meaning

You're so flamboyant, the way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment is getting more
You want police intervention

Every actor needs an audience
Every action is a performance
It all takes courage, you know it
Just crossing the street
Well, it's almost heroic
You're so flamboyant
Flamboyant

There you are at another preview
In a pose, the artist and you
To look so loud may be considered tacky
Collectors wear black clothes by Issey Miyake

You're so flamboyant, the way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment is getting more
You want the police intervention

You're so flamboyant, the way you live
You really care that they stare
And the press deployment is always there
It's what you do for enjoyment

You're so flamboyant
Flamboyant
