Common People by Pulp
She came from Greece.
She had a thirst for knowledge
She studied sculpture at St Martin's College.
That's where I (1)____________ her eye.
She told me that her Dad was loaded.
I said "In that case I'll (2)________ rum and coca-cola."
she said "Fine,"
and then in (3)____________ (4)______________ time she said,
"I want to live like common people.
I want to do whatever common (5)____________ do.
I want to (6)__________ with (7)____________ 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 (8)__________ it somewhere
so it started there.
I said "Pretend you've got no money."
But she just laughed and said "Oh you're so funny."
I said, "Yeah?
Well I can't see anyone else (9)______________ in here."
"Are you sure you want to (10)________ 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 (11)________ 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."
"You'll never live like (12)____________ 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 then dance, and drink, and screw
because there's nothing else to do!"
Sing (13)__________ with the common people.
Sing along and it might (14)________ get you through.
Laugh along with the common people.
Laugh along even though they're laughing at you
and the stupid things (15)________ you do
because you think (16)________ poor is cool.
Like a dog lying in a corner
they will bite you and never warn you.
Look out.
They'll tear your insides out
'cause everybody hates a tourist
especially one who thinks it's
all such a laugh.
Yeah and the chip stain's grease (17)________ come out in the bath.
You will never understand
how it (18)__________ to live your life
with no meaning or control
and with (19)______________ else to go.
You are amazed that they exist
and (20)________ burn so bright (21)____________ you can only wonder why?
Rent a flat above a shop.
Cut your hair and get a job.
Smoke (22)________ fags and play (23)________ pool.
