Jack and Jill Party lyrics
by 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?
Paint your face
And rat your hair
In the cathouse
With my b*tches
In the back room of the palace
Adding up my riches
Such a clown
I had the wrong idea
Should have gone to stage school
And got a career
I'm going
(To a party
A Jack-and-Jill party)
I'm going
(To a party
A Jack-and-Jill party)
I'm going to America
A very big subject
America
We'll walk down the avenue
Hand in hand
Cameras flashing
On command
Posessed 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
(To a party
A Jack-and-Jill party)
I'm going
(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's
A DJ
The public reject
Collectors collect
It's a matter of size
And you're up for a prize
Turn my back
On the human race
Gimme an inch
And I'm jamming the space
I'm going
(To a party
A Jack-and-Jill party)
I'm going
(To a party
A Jack-and-Jill party)
I'm going
(To a party
A Jack-and-Jill party)
I'm going
(To a party
A Jack-and-Jill party)
Paint your face
And rat your hair
