Jack and Jill Party - Pet Shop Boys

I’m going to a Jack-and-Jill party

A Jack-and-Jill party

Is always gonna start me

On the road to ruin

And who knows where?

When you’ve done your make-up

You can fix your hair

In the doghouse

With the rejects

On the scrapheap

Out of context

I’m such a fool

I had the wrong idea

Should have gone to stage school

And got a career

I’m going out

(To a party

A Jack-and-Jill party)

I’m going to America

A very big subject

America

When we’re walking down the avenue

Hand in hand

Flashbulbs flashing

On command

Possessed of a power to fascinate

It’s almost like

I’m almost straight

And that’s such a great

Substantial way

To deflect hate

In the USA

I’m going out

(To a party

A Jack-and-Jill party)

I’m going to a Jack-and-Jill party

A Jack-and-Jill party

And nobody’s gonna stop me

I don’t care

What they say

These days everybody

Is a DJ

The public reject

Collectors collect

It’s a matter of size

And you’re up for a prize

Taking refuge

From the human race

The only solution

Exploring the space

I’m going out

(To a party

A Jack-and-Jill party)

I’m going out

(To a party

A Jack-and-Jill party)
