เพลง Common People

Common people - Pulp

She came from greece

she had a thirst for knowledge

she studied sculpture at saint martins college

Thats where I caught her eye

She told me that her dad was loaded

I said in that case I'll have a rum Coke-cola

She said fine

And in thirty seconds time she said

I want to live like common people

I want to do whatever common people do

I want to sleep with common people

I want to sleep with common people

Like you. well what else could I do

I said I'll see what I can do

I took her to a supermarket

I don't know why but I had to start it somewhere

So it started there

I said pretend you've got no money

she just laughed

And said oh you're so funny

I said yeah? well I cant see anyone else

Smiling in here

Are you sure you want to live like common people

You want to see whatever common people see

You want to sleep with common people

You want to sleep with common people like me

But she didn't understand

She just smiled and held my hand

Rent a flat above a shop

Cut your hair and get a job

Smoke some fags and play some pool

Pretend you never went to school

But still you'll never get it

Right cos when youre laid in bed at night

Watching roaches climb the wall

If you call your dad he could stop it all

You'll never live like common people

You'll never do whatever common people do

You'll never fail like common people

You'll never watch your life slide out of view

And dance and drink and screw

Because there's nothing else to do

Sing along with the common people

Sing along and it might just get you

Thru, laugh along with the common people

Laugh along even though

They're laughing at you and the stupid things that you do

Because you think that poor is cool
