Common Peoplle

Made Famous 8y. PULP
(Q www.singtotheworld.com

She came from

Greece, she had a
thirst for knowledge

She studied sculpture
at St. Martin's College.

That's where I caught
her eye

She told me that her
Dad was loaded. I said
in that case I'll have a
Rum and Coca-Cola.
She said fine

And then in thirty

seconds time,
she said

I wanna live like
common people.

I want to do whatever
common people do

Wanna sleep with
common people.

I wanna sleep with
common people
like you

Well what else

could I 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,

Ha, you're so funny.
I said, Yeah, ha

Are you sure?
You wanna live like
common people.
You want to see
whatever common

people see I

Wanna sleep with
common people.

You wanna 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. 'cause when

you're laid in bed at
night

Watching roaches
climb the wall. If you

called your Dad, he
could stop it all, yeah

He'll never live like
common people. He'll
never do whatever
common people do.
Never fail like
common people

He'll never watch your
life slide out of view.
And then dance and

drink and screw,
because there's nothing
else to do

El El El El El
Sing-along with the
common people.
Sing-along and it might
just get you through

Sing-along with the
common people.
Sing-along and it might
just get you through

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

Like a dog lying in
the corner, he would

bite you and never
warn ya, 'Iook out'

'Cause everybody
hates a tourist,

especially one who,
who thinks it's all
such a laugh, yeah

And then the chip
stains and grease will
come out in the bath.

You will never
understand

How it feels to live

your life with no
meaning or control

And with nowhere
left to go.

You are amazed
that they exist

And they burn so bright,

whilst you can only
wonder why

Rent a flat above a

shop, cut your hair and
get a job

Smoke some fags
and play some pool.

Pretend ya never
went to school

But still you'll never get
it right. 'cause when

you're laid in bed at
night

Watching roaches
climb the wall. If you

called your Dad, he
could stop it all, yeah

Never live like
common people.
Never do what
common people do.
Never fail like
common people

Never watch your life
slide out of view.
And then dance and
drink and screw,
because there's nothing
else to do

Wanna live with
common people like

you. Wanna live with
common people like
you

Wanna live with
common people like

you. Wanna live with
common people like
you

Wanna live with
common people like

you, la-la-la-la.
ooh-la-la-la-la.
ooh-Ia-Ia-la-la

Ooh-la-Ia-la-Ia-la-la

oh you
