Pet Shop Boys - One Thing Leads To Another Lyrics






They close your eyes, and the doctor says it's too late
You wonder why your life passes before you
In the dark, you slip into a coma
You crash the car, you've gone too far
Policemen flash, they want credentials
You go too fast, but you're not careful
So you drive back home, in confusion, alone
She's a man, but when you get down to it
She says "Sure you can", you'll make love to her
She says "My place or yours?", drinks are poured
They'll keep you dance forever, so you dance together
To make a move now seems essential
Someone stares at you; the propagator has potential
To replace the other who just rediscovered another
'Cause you think you might need a lover

And oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another
And oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another, yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
It can lead to another

What's going on tonight? You think you might discover
So you pour a drink, and start to think about another
You get the sack when you turn up late
You think: Get this pressure off my back
With the deadlines missed, your boss gets pissed
You fail your test, you're so depressed
And the job begins to suffer
And the job begins to suffer

And oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another
And oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another, yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
One thing leads to another, yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
It can lead to another

And the job begins to suffer for the love you have lost
'Cause you care such a lot about the job you've got
You couldn't care less, you're in such a mess
And life's tougher
And you're feeling older; perhaps it's colder with her mother
Then your lover says she's moving out and moving back in
You've got a job, you like the job
But isn't it funny how one thing leads to another?

And oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another
Oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another, yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
One thing leads to another, yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
It can lead to another
And oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another
Oh, my god, look, you have just discovered
The way that one thing can lead to another, yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
One thing leads to another, yeah

  1. S.... ....

    Can we buy these rare tracks online? I checked Amazon and they're not there.... 🤔.

  2. N.... H....

    One of my favourite PSB tracks ever. I still treasure having this ltd edition as this has not been made available on any other release that I know of. PSB genius.

  3. S.... A....

    2:56 is so incredibly good. And it's just a bridge in the song. Pure genious.

  4. X.... D....

    He dies at the start, then you get the events leading to it ;) It only proves their genius, it reminds me of coldplay the scientist, but of course this gem was packed in a limited edition about 10 years prior, and therefore bypassed the public eye in obscurity.

    They close your eyes Then the doctor says it's too late You wonder why your life passes before you In the dark you slip into a coma You crash the car You've gone too far Policemen flash for your credentials You go too fast but you're not careful so you drive back home confused and alone She's a man but when you get down to it She says sure you can You wanna make love to her She says 'My place or yours?' Drinks are poured Like you could dance forever so you dance together To make a move now seems essential Someone stares at you The club you go to has potential To replace the other who just rediscovered her mother 'cause you think you might need a lover And, oh my God, look you have just discovered the way that one thing can lead to another And, oh my God, look you have just discovered the way that one thing can lead to another Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah It can lead to another What's going on tonight? You think you might discover so you pour a drink and start to think about another You get the sack when you turn up late You think get this pressure off my back With the deadlines missed your boss gets pissed You fail your test You're so depressed and the job begins to suffer and the job begins to suffer And, oh my God, look you have just discovered the way that one thing can lead to another And, oh my God, look you have just discovered the way that one thing can lead to another Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah One thing leads to another Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah It can lead to another And the job begins to suffer for the lover you lost 'cause you care such a lot about the job you've got You couldn't care less You're in such a mess and life's tougher You're feeling older The house is colder with her mother then your lover says she's moving out and moving back in You get a job You like the job And isn't it funny how one thing leads to another? And, oh my God, look you have just discovered the way that one thing can lead to another And, oh my God, look you have just discovered the way that one thing can lead to another Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah One thing leads to another Yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah It can lead to another

  5. D.... W....

    Almost 25 years later and this still rocks! Viva PSB!
    The best way I can describe this is that every time I hear it, it's like hearing it for the first time every time. Would love to see them in the studio recording it!

    D.... W....

    Would love them to release an up dated version of this song. Keeping the key board and piano in.

  6. s.... ....

    Reverse chronology makes this simple plot soooo ominous!

  7. M.... G....

    masterpiece !!!

  8. K.... ....

    I haven't heard this in years! I never had this bonus album but my best friend at the time had it and we used to play PSB music on loop back in thel ate 80s/90s. This was my favorite track from this album. Nice hearing this again! (^_^)

  9. M.... A....

    Werk. Loving this 2015.

    M.... A....

    Loving this 2018

  10. P.... H....

    p.... ....

    +Mark Redshaw ◀️GoodLad👏✨🎼💃🎼💃🎼💃🎼✨💫ta as we say 🙈

  12. S.... ....

    This appeared on my sidebar when I was watching some Fixx videos.  I like it a lot, but I do wish PSB had covered The Fixx' "One Thing Leads to Another"!

  13. t.... w....

    I love this track off "Relentless" - definitely my favourite track of the album.
    The story in the lyrics is told backwards, which is genius!  But the most important thing about this track is that it's a rap!  Love it.
    Always a PSB fan and always will be.

  14. t.... ....

    Mark Redshaw , you rock. Thanks for sharing "Relentless".

  15. K.... D....

    I love this song,i like Neils rar.

  16. s.... ....

    PSB own. That is all.

  17. G.... P....

    Neil was actually pretty decent when he rhymed,this is like West End Girls updated for the 90's.This should have been a single..

  18. s.... ....

    I just can't work out why petheads don't go on about this song more. It is a true all time PSB great to my ears.

  19. N.... ....

    It's very rap...but the main melody is simply wonderful!!!
