Lyrics: I arrive in the city where they’ve unveiled a bust of my predecessor still much discussed We tried to forget him His crimes were catalogued But in the new circumstances once again he’s a god The past isn’t even past That’s how long it lasts I want them to fear me like everyone feared him Arrested and shot but still they revered him Like him I’ll win I won’t be eclipsed I want men to die with my name on their lips The past isn’t even past That’s how long it lasts I’m the living embodiment of a heart of stone A human monument to testosterone Though inside I’m dead it’s too late to lose I’m all they ever talk about on their news cycle of abuse I’m there on your borders Not gonna quit To new world orders I will never submit Call me a warmonger and I’ll give you a war Say I’m a cheat and I’ll still fake the score There’s no defeat that I’ll answer for The West is effete and they’re begging for more I’ll get it all back the old status quo I remember how it was and I won’t let it go That’s how long it lasts The past isn’t even past That’s how long it lasts Follow Pet Shop Boys: Facebook: Twitter: YouTube: Spotify: Instagram: This is the official YouTube channel of Pet Shop Boys.
