Requiem in Denim and Leopardskin (2017 Remaster)

Requiem in Denim and Leopardskin (2017 Remaster) - Pet Shop Boys

Written by：Neil Tennant/Chris Lowe

I thought it was like a film

Reviewed but never seen

Where everybody played themselves

As a drama king or queen

The music was overwhelming

Glittering and thin

Solemn and shabby like a requiem

In denim and leopardskin

I visualised the flashbacks

School punk rock success

Parties too much of everything

The cliché s the candles the mess

Lucien in the scene with David

Brian in a tux

A copy of Blitz in Zanzibar

Old Hollywood redux

Ossie's last collection

Biba's closing sale

A little more rouge on the powdered cheeks

But the base is pale

This is our last chance for goodbye

Let the music begin

Shining and soaring like a requiem

In denim and leopardskin

It ended with a motorbike

A search for evidence

Poring over old photographs

To make it all fake sense

Glamorous in its own way

Shouting above the din

Solemn and shabby like a requiem

In denim and leopardskin

Johnny's wearing brothel creepers

Malcolm's round the block

Adam's in a Jarman film

The look is let it rock

A Johnson's leather jacket

Hair by Keith at Smile

All you need to make it big

Is sex and style

This is our last chance for goodbye

Let the music begin

Shining and soaring like a requiem

In denim and leopardskin

This is our last chance for goodbye

Let the music begin

Shining and soaring like a requiem

In denim and leopardskin

This is our last chance for goodbye

Let the music begin

Shining and soaring like a requiem

In denim and leopardskin

This is our last chance for goodbye

Let the music begin

Shining and soaring like a requiem

In denim and leopardskin
