Letra de I Didn't Get Where I Am Today - Pet Shop Boys

Why did I listen to that music?
It�s made me feel so sad
and brought it home to me once more
I want what I cannot have
When you can�t get what you want
you still have all the rest
but isn�t it sad to settle for second-best?

I�ve been waiting at home
for someone to phone
I didn�t get where I am today
without living that old cliche
I�ve been lying in bed
the sheets over my head
I didn�t get where I am today
without giving up in dismay

Told everyone I�m over it
I�ve quit this cul-de-sac
But just when I thought
I�d lost it for good
that feeling comes right back
When you can�t get what you want
you wear your bravest face
but deep inside you�re sinking without a trace

I�ve been called repressed
a poet, a pest
I didn�t get where I am today
without getting in someone�s way
I live my life on a stage
put it down on the page
I didn�t get where I am today
without writing a resume
I didn�t get where I am today

I didn�t get where I am today
I didn�t get where I am today

I�ve explored situations
the themes and variations
I didn�t get where I am today
without losing it on the way
On the Street of Shame
looking for someone to blame
I didn�t get where I am today
without leaving in disarray
I didn�t get where I am today
