[Intro: Neil Tennant]
Flamboyant
Flamboyant

[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
You live in a world of excess
Where more is more
And less is much less
A day without fame
Is a waste
And a question of need
Is a question of taste

[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
And you're so flamboyant
The way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment
Is getting more
You want police intervention

[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
You live in a time of decay
When the worth of a man
Is how much he can play
Every day
All the public must know
Where you are, what you do
'Cause your life is a show and

[Chorus 2: Neil Tennant]
You're so flamboyant
The way you live
And it's not even demeaning
You're so flamboyant
It's like a drug
You use to give your life meaning
You're so flamboyant
The way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment
Is getting more
You want police intervention

[Bridge: Neil Tennant]
Every actor needs
An audience
Every action is
A performance
It all takes courage
You know it
Which is crossing the street
Well, it's almost heroic
You're so flamboyant

[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
You're so flamboyant
The way you look
It gets you so much attention
Your sole employment
Is getting more
You want police intervention
You're so flamboyant
The way you live
You really care that they stare
And the press deployment
Is always there
It's what you do for enjoyment

[Outro: Neil Tennant]
You're so flamboyant
