[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
You always wanted a lover
I only wanted a job
I've always worked for my living
How am I gonna get through?
How am I gonna get through?

[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
I come here looking for money
(Got to have it)
And end up living with love, oh, oh
Now you left me with nothing
(Can't take it)
How am I gonna get through?
How am I gonna get through?

[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
I bought you drinks, I brought you flowers
I read your books and talked for hours
Every day, so many drinks
Such pretty flowers, so tell me
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
What have I, what have I, what have I

[Chorus: (Neil Tennant)]
Since you went away I've been hanging around
I've been wondering why I'm feeling down
You went away, it should make me feel better
But I don't know, oh
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)

[Verse 3: Neil Tennant]
You always wanted me to be something I wasn't
(You always wanted too much, oh, oh)
Now I can do what I want to, forever
How am I gonna get through?
How am I gonna get through?

[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
At night, the people come and go
They talk too fast and walk too slow
Chasing time from hour to hour
I pour the drinks and crush the flowers
What have I, what have I done to deserve this?
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
What have I, what have I, what have I

[Chorus: (Neil Tennant)]
Since you went away I've been hanging around
I've been wondering why I'm feeling down
You went away, it should make me feel better
But I don't know, oh
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)
Baby
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)
Baby
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)
Baby
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)
Tell me
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)
Baby
How I'm gonna get through
(What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?)
Yeah

[Coda: Neil Tennant]
(I'm gonna get through)
(I'm gonna get through)
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
(I'm gonna get through, right?)
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
We don't have to fall apart, we don't have to fight
We don't need to go to hell and back every night
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
(We can make a deal)
We can make a deal
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
(We don't have to fall apart, we don't have to fight)
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
(We don't need to go to hell and back every night)
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?
What have I, what have I, what have I done to deserve this?

[Outro: Neil Tennant]
"Glastonbury, tonight you were member the wonderful the legendary Dusty Springfield!"
"Here we go!"
