bullet for narcissus

Pet Shop Boys

I've got eyes in the back of my head
For anything suspicous
And If my number's up
I'll take a bullet for Narcissus

The Narcissus, his power is his dream
His politics are simply mean
He doesn't trust what he hasn't seen
He's so banal, he's made it mainstream

I see the tension in his eyes
The accusations he denies
I wonder if he's realised
That right behind him he's despised

I'm strapped up, strapped in, wear the vest
All the kit of an agent's chest
Even though it's bullet proof
One could get through and that the truth

So I've got eyes in the back of my head
For anything suspicious
And If my number's up
I'll take a bullet for Narcissus

As I survey the big event
People think he's heaven-sent
Devoted crowds who chant his song
I sometimes think he lives for fame

Oh Narcissus
It's so delicious
To watch his make up run
He sweats and panicky
Fakes reality
He only cares for number one

I've got eyes in the back of my head
For anything suspicious
And If my number's up
I'll take a bullet for Narcissus
And If my number's up
I'll take a bullet for Narcissus
