Coming on the heals of Dixie Chicks and Pink and finding inspiration from a novelty T-shirt, The Pet Shop Boys have released a new single with a none-to-subtle political message. This time, it targets Tony Blair but spares no quarter for Bush either. It's standard Pet Shop Boys techno. These days, the boys are probably reaching a fairly limited audience of dedicated fans, like yours truly, so it's not likely to cause any controversy or reach a wide audience, but I just had to share.

***************************
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 this 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
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Is Stupid really this stupid or really smart?
That's how you stole my heart.
I'm with Stupid
