Neil Tennant - The Pop Kids (The Full Story) lyrics

[Verse 1] Remember those days, the early nineties 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 [Pre-Chorus] Wherever we went Whatever we did We knew the songs [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus] We stayed out 'til late Five nights a week And felt so chic [Chorus] 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 [Post-Chorus] The pop kids The pop kids The pop kids Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days [Bridge] 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 Oh, I like it here Oh, I love it Oh, I like it here Oh, I love it Oh, I like it here Oh, I love it Oh, I like it here Oh, I am never going home Oh, I am never going home Oh, I am never going home [Verse 3] Many years have pa**ed now When 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 owe to our pop education Wherever we are Whatever we do We know the song [Chorus] x2
