WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS ?

Pet shop boys

This was one of my 80’s favorites, by Pet Shop Boys, an English duo who have sold more than 100 million records worldwide and are classified as the most successful duo in UK music history. A duo who “navigated the constantly shifting landscape of modern dance-pop with grace and intelligence, moving easily from disco to house music to thoughtful synth pop without losing their distinctive style in the process.”

This song, besides its great sound, offers some interesting lyrics for my grammar “introspections”. So go ahead, sing and dance and fill in the gaps with the suitable Past tense or participle

Complete with the missing words

You always (1)  _ _ _ _ _ a lover

I only (2)  _ _ _ _ _ a job

I’ve always (3)  _ _ _ _ _ for my living

How am I gonna get through?

How am I gonna get through?

I come here looking for money

Got to have it

And end up living with love, oh, oh

Now you (4)   _ _ _ _ _ _  me with nothing

Can’t take it

How am I gonna get through?

How am I gonna get through?

I (5)  _ _ _ _  _ you drinks, I (6)  _ _ _ _ _  you flowers

I (7) _ _ _ _ _ you books and (8)  _ _ _ _ for hours

Every day, so many drinks

Such pretty flowers, so tell me

What have I, what have I, what have I (9)  _ _ _ _ _ _to deserve this?

What have I, what have I, what have I (10)  _ _ _ _ _ _ to deserve this?

What have I, what have I, what have I . . .

Since you went away I’ve (11) _ _ _ _ hanging around

I’ve (12)  _ _ _ _ _ _ wondering why I’m feeling down

You (13)  _ _ _ _ _ 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?)

You always (14)  _ _ _ _ _ _ me to be something I wasn’t

You always (15)  _ _ _ _ _ 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?

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, what have I (16)  _ _ _ _ _ _ _ to deserve this?

What have I, what have I, what have I (17)  _ _ _ _ _ _ to deserve this?

What have I, what have I, what have I . . .

Since you went away I’ve (18)  _ _ _ _ _ _ _ hanging around

I’ve (19)  _ _ _ _ _ _ wondering why I’m feeling down

You (20) _ _ _ _ away, it should make me feel better

But I don’t know, oh

How I’m gonna get through, baby . . .
