Pet Shop Boys - Sexy Northerner Lyrics






Came down from the North
You know the way they do
Got a cheeky smile
Sexy Northerner

Hanging round the clubs
Gets in them for free
Don't know how he does it
Sexy Northerner

Drinks a lot of beer
At least he doesn't smoke
Hasn't lost his accent
Sexy Northerner

How does he do it?
How does he do it?
Acts like he's got nothing to prove
Sexy Northerner

It's not all football and fags
No it's not all football and fags

Don't you dare imply
That it's grim up North
He went last weekend
Sexy Northerner

In the latest clothes
Wears a posh cologne
Got a lot of pride
Sexy Northerner

Says he wants a job
Something interesting
Like a graphic designer
Sexy Northerner

How does he do it?
How does he do it?
Acts like he's got nothing to prove
Sexy Northerner

It's not all football and fags
No it's not all football and fags

    I have traveled to the UK. "Northerner" usually means someone from the North of England, opposite of a Londoner who is from the South of England. Londoners are usually the big city ones and Northerners are more small town, "simple" (for lack of a better word) or provincial. As an American, the U.S. equivalent in my mind would be if Neil was from New York City or Los Angeles and was singing about some sexy "cornfed boy from the farmlands (Midwest/South) or country boy from the heartland" here in the U.S. Just someone who is unassumingly sexy, "jock" like as we would say in U.S. and just has a peculiar "Way" about his masculinity and brawniness. Just my two cents.

    Perhaps a hidden track---the kind you have to be super tech-savvy to release it, or extract it.

    Remember seeing them perform this on the University Tour, absolutely the highlight of a brilliant live show with a real band on stage.

    Pet Shop Boys seems to be one of the best bands ever, like Depeche Mode, A-ha, Tears For Fears etc. Does anyone agree? Lithuania :)

    No' sorry I don't, Pet Shop Boys are so far ahead of those others bands you mention, The Pet Shop Boys are the electric version of The Smiths' Depeche Mode, A-ha, Tears For Fears' their lyrics are no where near Neil Tennant's nor do they have all time classic albums like Behaviour

    A.... S....

    PSB No.1 for moi!

  14. B.... O....

    one of my all-time favorite songs ever..

  15. S.... ....

    'sexy northerner'- so literally every northerner ever then.

    S.... ....

    Too right lol 😁x

  16. B.... H....

    Superchumbo is amazing. Tom is fantastic!

  17. A.... ....

    As a northerner living south, I can say we are way sexier that southerners ; )

  18. A.... v....

    Don't count that, mate :p !

  19. J.... R....

    Sexy Northern Wisconsiner...

  20. R.... V....

    excelente!!!

  21. C.... H....

    I feel it, it's more and more...

  22. a.... p....

    so the American version of this would be a burly hunky Canadian that you wanted to nail?

  23. a.... p....

    this version has a whole other "thing" going on than the one on the album.

  24. a.... p....

    ok. Time to find the lyrics. I like this version. It sounds like they're saying...
    "It's not all, football and bats...It's not all, football and bats"
    That fits but I think I'm hearing things.

  25. T.... C....

    Is the "it's grim up north" line a reference the excellent KLF track, or just a common phrase?

    T.... C....

    it`s a common phrase..but agreed the KLF track is excellent

  26. r.... ....

    can't believe this was just a b-side single

  27. R.... D....

    I work in advertising. The bit about "like a graphic designer" rings a bell... XD

  28. E.... ....

    Least he does'nt smoke!

  29. A.... U....

    got to love detune

  30. N.... ....
