The Pop Kids (the Full Story) Lyrics - The Pop Kids - Pet Shop Boys

Remember those days, the early 90s? 

We both applied for places at the same university 

Ended up in London where we needed to be 

To follow our obsession with the music scene 

Wherever we went 

Whatever we did 

We knew the songs 

They called us the Pop Kids 

'Cause we loved the pop hits 

And quoted the best bits 

So we were the Pop Kids 

I loved you 

I loved you 

They called us the Pop Kids

I studied history while you did biology 

To you the human body didn't hold any mystery 

We were young but imagined we were so sophisticated 

Telling everyone we knew that rock was overrated 

We stayed out 'til late 

Five nights a week 

And felt so chic 

They called us the Pop Kids 

'Cause we loved the pop hits 

And quoted the best bits 

So we were the Pop Kids 

I loved you 

I loved you 

They called us the Pop Kids 

(Remember those days? Remember those days?) 

It was a wet Wednesday night 

We worried that no one would be going out 

How wrong we were! 

When we turned the corner 

There was already a queue stretching down the street 

We swept straight in and you said: 

"Ooh, I like it here! 

Ooh, I love it! 

Ooh, I like it here! 

Ooh, I love it! 

Ooh, I like it here! 

Ooh, I love it! 

Ooh, I like it here! 

Ooh, I am never going home" 

I am never going home 

I am never going home 

Many years have passed now and you're someone to be reckoned with 

You work in California as a clinical biologist 

Me, I'm writing stuff about the global situation 

But we don't forget the debt we own to our pop education 

Wherever we are 

Whatever we do 

We know the songs 

They called us the Pop Kids 

'cause we loved the pop hits 

and quoted the best bits 

so we were the Pop Kids 

I loved you 

I loved you 

They called us the Pop Kids 

'cause we loved the pop hits 

and quoted the best bits 

so we were the Pop Kids 

I loved you
