Being Boring

Chris Lowe, Neil Tennant

[Verse 1]
I came across a cache of old photos
And invitations to teenage parties
"Dress in white", one said with quotations
From someone's wife, a famous writer in the 1920s

[Pre-Chorus]
When you're young, you find inspiration
In anyone who's ever gone
And opened up a closing door
She said we were never feelin' bored

[Chorus]
'Cause we were never bein' boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
We were nevеr bein' boring
We dressеd up and fought, then thought, "Make amends"
We were never holdin' back or worried that
Time would come to an end

[Verse 2]
When I left, I left from the station
With a haversack and some trepidation
Someone said if you're not careful
You'll have nothin' left and nothin' to care for in the 1970s

[Pre-Chorus]
But I sat back and lookin' forward
My shoes were high and I had scored
I'd bolted through a closing door
I would never find myself feelin' bored

[Chorus]
'Cause we were never bein' boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
We were never bein' boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought, "Make amends"
We were never holdin' back or worried that
Time would come to an end

[Verse 3]
Now, I sit with different faces
In rented rooms and foreign places
All the people I was kissing
Some are here and some are missing in the 1990s

[Pre-Chorus]
I never dreamt that I would get to be
The creature that I always meant to be
But I thought in spite of dreams
You'd be sitting somewhere here with me

[Chorus]
'Cause we were never bein' boring
We had too much time to find for ourselves
We were never bein' boring
We dressed up and fought, then thought, "Make amends"
We were never holdin' back or worried that
Time would come to an end
We were always hopin' that lookin' back
You can always rely on a friend
