| Pet Shop Boys – It Couldn't Happen Here Lyrics

This song IS about AIDS, a close friend of Neil Tennant contracted AIDS and this song is about that. How they were so carefree when they were younger, how society had heard of this terrible disease 'from Africa' but everyone had said that it would never happen here. Listen to the lyrics again and you will see the true meaning stand out. The friend in this song is also the same friend who's funeral Neil wroth about in 'Your Funny Uncle' by the way |
