[00:00:00] Common People - William Shatner

[00:00:02] Written by：Candida Doy

[00:00:03] She came from Greece

[00:00:04] She had a thirst for knowledge

[00:00:06] She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's college

[00:00:09] That's where I caught her eye

[00:00:15] She told me that her dad was loaded

[00:00:17] I said in that case

[00:00:19] I'll have a rum and coca cola

[00:00:20] She said fine and in thirty

[00:00:24] Seconds time she said

[00:00:26] I wanna live like common people

[00:00:29] I wanna do whatever common people do

[00:00:32] I wanna sleep with common people

[00:00:34] I wanna sleep with common people like you

[00:00:39] Well what else could I do I said

[00:00:41] I'll see what I can do

[00:00:48] I took her to a supermarket

[00:00:51] I don't know why

[00:00:51] But I had to start it somewhere

[00:00:54] So it started there

[00:00:59] I said pretend you've got no money

[00:01:02] She just laughed and said oh you're so funny

[00:01:06] I said yeah well I can't see

[00:01:08] Anyone else smiling in here

[00:01:10] Are you sure you want to live like common people

[00:01:13] You want to see whatever common people see

[00:01:16] You want to sleep with common people

[00:01:18] You want to sleep with common people like me

[00:01:22] But she didn't understand

[00:01:25] She just smiled and held my hands

[00:01:29] Rent a flat above a shop

[00:01:31] Cut your hair and get a job

[00:01:34] Smoke some fags and play some pool

[00:01:37] Pretend you never went to school

[00:01:40] But still you'll never get it right

[00:01:42] When you're lyin' in bed at night

[00:01:45] Watching roaches climb the wall

[00:01:48] If you call your dad he could stop it all

[00:01:52] You'll never live like common people

[00:01:54] You'll never do whatever common people do

[00:01:57] You'll never fail like common people

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

[00:02:03] And dance and drink and screw

[00:02:06] Because there's nothing else to do

[00:02:32] Sing along with the common people

[00:02:35] Sing along and it might just get you through

[00:02:38] Laugh along with the common people

[00:02:41] Laugh along even though they're laughing at you

[00:02:44] And the stupid things that you do

[00:02:46] 'Cause you think that poor is cool

[00:02:52] Like a dog lying in a corner

[00:02:54] It'll bite you and never warn you

[00:02:56] Look out they'll tear your insides out

[00:03:01] Because everybody hates a tourist

[00:03:03] Because everybody hates a tourist

[00:03:05] 'Specially one who thinks it's all such a laugh

[00:03:08] Yeah and the chip stains'

[00:03:10] Grease will come out in the bath

[00:03:12] You wil never understand

[00:03:15] How it feels to live your life

[00:03:17] With no meaning or control

[00:03:20] And with nowhere left to go

[00:03:23] You're amazed that they exist

[00:03:25] And they burn so bright why

[00:03:27] You can only wonder why

[00:03:34] Rent a flat above a shop

[00:03:37] Cut your hair and get a job

[00:03:39] Smoke some fags and play some pool

[00:03:42] Pretend you never went to school

[00:03:45] But still you'll never get it right

[00:03:47] When you've laid in bed at night

[00:03:50] Watching roaches climb the wall

[00:03:54] If you call your dad he could stop it all

[00:03:58] You'll never live like common people

[00:03:59] You'll never do what common people do

[00:04:02] You'll never fail like common people

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

[00:04:07] And dance and drink and screw

[00:04:11] Because there's nothing else to do

[00:04:15] You wanna sleep with the common people

[00:04:17] You wanna sleep with the common people

[00:04:20] You wanna sleep with the common people
