《Common People》歌词

[00:00:00] Common People (普通人) - Pulp (果浆乐团)

[00:00:08] She came from Greece

[00:00:10] She had a thirst for knowledge

[00:00:12] She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College

[00:00:14] That's where I caught her eye

[00:00:22] She told me that her dad was loaded

[00:00:25] I said "In that case I'll have rum and Coca-Cola"

[00:00:28] She said "Fine"

[00:00:31] And then in 30 seconds time she said

[00:00:35] “I want to live like common people

[00:00:38] I want to do whatever common people do

[00:00:43] I want to sleep with common people

[00:00:45] I want to sleep with common people like you”

[00:00:51] Well what else could I do

[00:00:53] I said "I'll I'll see what I can do"

[00:01:00] I took her to a supermarket

[00:01:02] I don't know why

[00:01:04] But I had to start it somewhere

[00:01:08] So it started there

[00:01:12] I said "Pretend you've got no money"

[00:01:16] But she just laughed and said "Oh you're so funny"

[00:01:19] I said "Yeah well I don't see anyone else smilin' in here

[00:01:24] Are you sure

[00:01:26] You wanna live like common people

[00:01:29] You wanna see whatever common people see

[00:01:32] Wanna sleep with common people

[00:01:35] You wanna sleep with common people like me "

[00:01:40] But she didn't understand

[00:01:42] And she just smiled and held my hand

[00:01:48] Rent a flat above a shop

[00:01:50] Cut your hair and get a job

[00:01:54] Smoke some fags and play some pool

[00:01:57] Pretend you never went to school

[00:02:00] But still you'll never get it right

[00:02:03] 'Cause when you're laid in bed at night

[00:02:07] Watching roaches climb the wall

[00:02:10] If you called your dad he could stop it all yeah

[00:02:14] You'll never live like common people

[00:02:17] You'll never do whatever common people do

[00:02:21] You'll never fail like common people

[00:02:24] You'll never watch your life slide out of view

[00:02:28] And then dance and drink and screw

[00:02:31] Because there's nothing else to do

[00:03:02] Sing along with the common people

[00:03:05] Sing along and it might just get you through

[00:03:08] Laugh along with the common people

[00:03:11] Laugh along even though they're laughin' at you

[00:03:15] And the stupid things that you do

[00:03:18] Because you think that poor is cool

[00:03:24] Like a dog lyin' in a corner

[00:03:27] They will bite and never warn you look out

[00:03:32] They'll tear your insides out

[00:03:36] 'Cause everybody hates a tourist

[00:03:40] Especially one who thinks

[00:03:43] It's all such a laugh

[00:03:45] Yeah and the chip stain's grease

[00:03:47] Will come out in the bath

[00:03:49] You will never understand

[00:03:51] How it feels to live your life

[00:03:54] With no meaning or control

[00:03:57] And with nowhere else to go

[00:04:00] You are amazed that they exist

[00:04:03] And they burn so bright

[00:04:06] While you can only wonder why

[00:04:07] Rent a flat above a shop

[00:04:09] Cut your hair and get a job

[00:04:13] Smoke some fags and play some pool

[00:04:19] Pretend you never went to school

[00:04:22] But still you'll never get it right

[00:04:25] 'Cause when you're laid in bed at night

[00:04:28] Watchin' roaches climb the wall

[00:04:33] If you called your dad he could stop it all yeah

[00:04:36] You'll never live like common people

[00:04:38] You'll never do what common people do

[00:04:41] You'll never fail like common people

[00:04:44] You'll never watch your life slide out of view

[00:04:48] And dance and drink and screw

[00:04:51] Because there's nothin' else to do

[00:05:07] I wanna live with common people like you

[00:05:09] I wanna live with common people like you

[00:05:12] I wanna live with common people like you
