Rent [Top of the Pops - 1987/10/22]

[Intro: Neil Tennant]

You dress me up

I'm your puppet

You buy me things

I love it

You bring me food

I need it

You give me love

I feed it

[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]

And look at the two of us in sympathy

With everything we see

I never want anything, it's easy

You buy whatever I need

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]

But look at my hopes, look at my dreams

The currency we've spent

I love you, you pay my rent

I love you, you pay my rent

[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]

You phone me in the evening on hearsay

And bought me caviar

You took me to a restaurant off Broadway

To tell me who you are

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]

We never ever argue, we never calculate

The currency we've spent

I love you, you pay my rent

I love you, you pay my rent

[Interlude: Neil Tennant]

I'm your puppet

I love it

[Verse 3: Neil Tennant]

And look at the two of us in sympathy

And sometimes ecstasy

Words mean so little, and money less

When you're lying next to me

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]

But look at my hopes, look at my dreams

The currency we've spent

I love you, you pay my rent

I love you, you pay my rent

[Chorus: Neil Tennant]

Look at my hopes, look at my dreams

The currency we've spent

I love you, you pay my rent

I love you, you pay my rent

[Outro: Neil Tennant]

(It's easy, it's so easy)

I love you, you pay my rent

(It's easy, it's so easy)

You pay my rent
