Nothing Has Been Proved (Live At The Mermaid Theatre)

Nothing Has Been Proved (Live At The Mermaid Theatre) - Pet Shop Boys

Mandy's in the papers cause

She tried to go to Spain

Shell soon be in the dock

And in the papers once again

Vicki's got her story about

The mirror and the cane

It may be false it may be true

But nothing has been proved

Stephens in his dressing-gown now

Breakfasting alone

Too sick to eat

He's on his feet and to the telephone

The police inspector soothes him

With his sympathetic tone

It may be false

It may be true

But nothing has been proved

In the house a resignation

Guilty faces every one

Christine's fallen out with Lucky

Got a gun

Please please me all the while

It's a scandal

Such a scandal

Now Stephens in the dock for

Spending money that was earned

By Christine and the prosecution says

The money burned

A hole in Stephens pocket

For expensive sins he yearned

It may be false

It may be true but nothing has been proved

In the news the suicide note

In the court an empty space

Even Mandy's looking worried

Christine's pale and drawn

Please please me number one

It's a scandal

Such a scandal

Last night he wrote

These words to his friend

Sorry about the mess

I'm guilty till proved innocent

In the public eye and press

The funerals very quiet

Because all his friends have fled

They may be false they may be true

They've all got better things to do

They may be false they may be true

But nothing has been proved

Nothing nothing's been proved

Nothing oh nothing
