I'm With Stupid -- Pet Shop Boys


Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid  Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid  See you on the TV
Call you every day  Fly across the ocean  Just to let you get your way
No one understands me  Where I'm coming from  Why would I be with someone
Who's obviously so dumb?  Love comes   Love grows  Every time you rise to meet me  Take my hand to greet me  Love comes  Love grows
And power can give a man  Much more than anybody knows
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid  Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid

Before we ever met  I thought like everybody did  You were just a moron
A billion-dollar kid  You flew up all the way  Like a hawk chasing a dove
I never thought that I would be  A sacrifice in love  It comes  It grows
And now we're tied together  Everybody knows
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid  Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid

Is stupid really stupid  Or a different kind of smart?
Do we really have a relationship   So special in your heart?
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid  Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid

I have to ask myself  Like any lover might  Have you made a fool of me?
Are you not Mr. Right?  You grin  I pose  It's not about sincerity
Everybody knows   I'm with Stupid  Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Is stupid really stupid  Or a different kind of smart?
That's how you stole my heart  I'm with Stupid                         (sing365) 

This song is about the relationship between US president George Bush and English Prime Minister Tony Blair. They joined forces to make some questionable political decisions, including invading Iraq, and this song expresses how many in the general public consider both men dumb. The song also wonders if they really are stupid or whether it's just a cover up for something                                                                                                      (songfacts).       


               



Anthony Charles Lynton Blair (born 6 May 1953) is a British Labour Party politician who served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 2 May 1997 to 27 June 2007.
At 43 years old, he became the youngest Prime Minister since Lord Liverpool in 1812. In the first years of the New Labour government, Blair's government implemented a number of 1997 manifesto pledges, introducing the minimum wage,Human Rights Act and Freedom of Information Act, and carrying out devolution, establishing the Scottish Parliament, the National Assembly for Wales, and the Northern Ireland Assembly.
Blair's role as Prime Minister was particularly visible in foreign and security policy, including in Northern Ireland, where he was involved in the 1998 Good Friday Agreement. From the start of the War on Terror in 2001, Blair strongly supported the foreign policy of US   president George W. Bush, notably by participating in the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan and 2003 invasion of Iraq.                                                           (wikipedia)
