Lyrics Nine Out Of Ten - Pet Shop Boys, Jonathan Harvey, Straight Dave

Nine Out Of Ten

SHELL
This is great!
DAVE
I’m straight?
SHELL
Just great!
I love the way you kiss
It’s bliss
DAVE
How much bliss?
SHELL
Will nine out of ten do?
You used to be so shy
Now I can’t deny
You satisfy
You’re scoring high
Will nine out of ten do?
DAVE
Leaves room for improvement!
SHELL
And how do I rate?
DAVE
An eight?
No wait
To score
Some more:
Come one, explore!
SHELL
Only an eight?
DAVE
I’m one of those men who thinks he can surprise
SHELL
So I realise
When I close my eyes
And feel your size
DAVE
Will nine out of ten do?
SHELL
Is that inches or centimetres?
DAVE
Size isn’t everything!
Let’s do it again and again
Until we’re scoring ten out of ten
SHELL
How does this compare with back then
Back when you used to do it with men?
DAVE
What men?
SHELL
Did you never do it with men?
DAVE
Don’t you dare
Go there
To compare
Haven’t you found
Boys fool around?
SHELL
So you don’t deny it?
DAVE
Listen
I have spent months with you
And loved each moment too
Just being with you
Has made me new
SHELL
And just how new?
DAVE
Will nine out of ten do?
SHELL
I love you
DAVE
And just how much?
SHELL
Will nine out of ten do?
