paroles de chanson Metamorphosis - Pet Shop Boys

Please allow me to try and explain
I′m living proof that man can change
I knew what I wanted
I knew how to get it
It didn't make me happy
So I started again
What I wanted to be was
A family man
But nature had some
Alternative plans
So I did without the lot
Put emotion on hold
And hoped my instincts
Would do what they were told

I wanna know, yeah
I wanna know

But every now and then
Often at night
A particular feeling would surface in spite
Of what I′d told myself
And tried to deny
I kept on asking the question: why?

Why? Why? Why?
I wanna know

You grow up and experience this
A total metamorphosis
It's all about change
It's a metamorphosis

With time and age
I had to change
′Cause my behaviour
Was getting strange
People on the street
Caught my eye
And I began to think
I might be their kind of guy
The long-term suppression
Of an adolescent urge
Was in retreat
And I was on the verge
Of falling in love
Or having fun
Time was running out
Something had to be done

I wanna know, yeah
I wanna know

Where was I?
Laying down the law
Dancing with the others
Out on the floor
Music and smoke
What did it mean?
Somebody spoke
And I went into a dream
I had what I wanted
Madly in love
Nothing else mattered
This was enough
Questions were answered
Which used to perplex
In particular those about
The big s.e.x.

I wanna know, yeah
I wanna know
I wanna know, yeah
Tell me what′s the reason
Tell me what's the reason

You grow up and experience this
A total metamorphosis
It′s all about love
It's a metamorphosis

Dreaming is easy, life is tough
I got the picture
The most important thing
Is not to end up bitter
′Cause when you start to feel
Increasingly forlorner
- Woomph! - love comes
Right around the corner
It may not last
But here am I
Once a caterpillar
Now a butterfly
It can seem strange
But when you reminisce
It's all about change
It′s a metamorphosis

It's all about love
It's a metamorphosis
