Lyrics

[Spoken Intro] Good evening, Covent Garden. We are the Pet Shop Boys. Tonight, in the Royal Opera House, we're going to have a fabulous night. Because on the stage here and you over there, we're all just going to be Pop Kids The Pop Kids [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 1] 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 2] 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 Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days Remember those days [Spoken Interlude] 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 [Outro] 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 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 I loved you I loved you I loved you I loved you [Spoken Interlude] A little mid-80s electro for you In the Night [Verse 1] Zazou, whatcha gonna do? There's a lot of people gunning for you Zazou, comment allez-vous? A knock on the door in the night [Verse 2] That Zazou, he don't care The dark glasses, the long hair Takes his time, sneers at men Some ugly people want revenge Zazou comment allez-vous? A knock on the door in the night In the night In the night [Verse 3] That Zazou he sleeps all day Then down to Select or Le Collisee Sips his drinks, orders more Says what he thinks and it's a crazy war Zazou comment allez-vous? A knock on the door in the night In the night [Chorus] And when the soldiers strut All he cares about is love When the flags are out All he cares about is love But there's a thin line between love and crime And in this situation A thin line between love and crime and Collaboration [Outro] In the night In the night Burn [Verse 1] All the stars are flashing high above the sea And the party is on fire around you and me [Chorus] We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes London! We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes [Post-Chorus] It feels so good It feels so good It feels so good It feels so good [Verse 2] There's a full moon glowing red above the sea And I feel the sudden heat between you and me [Chorus] We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes [Outro] Before the morning come Before the morning come Before the morning come Before the morning come Before the morning come Before the morning come Before the morning come Before the morning come We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes We're gonna burn this disco down before the morning comes [Spoken Outro] It feels so good!
