Rent Lyrics
Rent Song Lyrics
(Again... Again... Again... Ooooh
(Again... Again... Again... Again... ...)
You dress me up, I'm your puppet
You buy me things, I love it
You bring me food, I need it
You give me love, I feed it
And look at the two of us in sympathy
With everything we see
I never want anything, it's easy
You buy whatever I need
But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
You phone me in the evening on hearsay
And bought me caviar
You took me to a restaurant off Broadway
To tell me who you are
We never-ever argue, we never calculate
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
I'm your puppet
I love it
And look at the two of us in sympathy
And sometimes ecstasy
Words mean so little, and money less
When you're lying next to me
But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) Ooh, I love you, you pay my rent
Look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
Look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent (It's easy, it's so easy)
(Ooooh) You pay my rent (It's easy, it's so easy)
(Ooooh) You pay my rent (It's easy, it's so easy)
(Ooooh) I love you (It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)
(It's easy, it's so easy)

"Rent" by Pet Shop Boys presents a nuanced narrative exploring the complexities of a rellationship based on materialistic exchanges and emotional dependency. The song delves into the dynamic of a person who is financially supported by their partner, highlighting the blend of gratitude and underlying emotional conflict.The lyrics, "You dress me up, I'm your puppet / You buy me things, I love it," set the tone for the relationship, where one partner plays a dominant, provider role, and the oter is almost objectified, receiving material gifts and financial support. This dependency is further emphasized in lines like "You give me love, I feed it" and "You bring me food, I need it," illustrating a dynamic where love and basic needs are intertwined with financial dependency.
A key aspect of the song is the acknowledgment of this dependence, as seen in the chorus, "I love you, oh, you pay my rent." Here, the speaker candidly admits that their love is intricately linked to the financial support they receive. The repetition of this line throughout the song underscores the central role that financial support plays in the relationship.
The lyric, "We never-ever argue, we never calculate / The currency we've spent," suggests a seemingly peaceful relationship surface-level, devoid of typical relationship conflicts. However, this lack of conflict is attributed to the financial arrangement rather than genuine understanding or emotional connection.
The song subtly critiques the superficiality of relationships based on material gains and questions the authenticity of emotions in such dynamics. It explores how financial dependency can complicate love, making it difficult to discern genuine affection from gratitude or convenience. "Rent" offers a poignant and thought-provoking reflection on the intersections between love, money, and power within personal relationships.
