Lyrics Twenty-Something (Radio Edit) - Pet Shop Boys

Twenty-something in the mix
Always that ironic twist
Got a start-up, good to go
When the money starts to flow
Oh, twenty-something up to tricks

That's how you are or have to be
In a decadent city at a time of greed
You can make believe that it's all you need
Sometimes it's hard
Day to day, to pay your way

Twenty-something, quite a catch
Think you'll ever meet your match?
You've always been somewhat choosy
But you'll love her for the length of a good movie
Oh, twenty-something, call her back

That's how you are or have to be
In a decadent city at a time of greed
You can make believe that it's all you need
Take your smart phone and make your way home
On your own

Twenty-something, hard to beat
Check your reflection walking down the street
Thirty's calling round the bend
Will your ideas ever trend?
Oh, twenty-something, feel the heat

Find an issue, get ahead
Got it sorted, like you said
You're twenty-something and so to bed

That's how you are or have to be
In a decadent city at a time of greed
You can make believe that it's all you need
Sometimes it's hard
Day to day, to pay your way
