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 caught her eye.

She told me that her Dad was loaded.
I said "In that (1)________ I'll (2)________ rum and coca-cola."
she said "Fine,"
and (3)________ in (4)____________ (5)______________ (6)________ 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 (7)________ to sleep with common people like you."
Well (8)________ else (9)__________ 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."
But she just laughed and said "Oh you're so funny."
I said, "Yeah?
Well I can't see (10)____________ else smiling in here."
"Are you (11)________ you want to live like (12)____________ people?
You want to see whatever common people see?
You want to sleep with common people?
You want to sleep with common (13)____________ 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 (14)__________ 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 (15)__________ live (16)________ common people.
You'll never do whatever common people do!
You'll never fail like common people!
You'll never (17)__________ your life slide out of view
and then 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 through.
Laugh along with the (18)____________ 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 (19)__________ 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 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 else 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 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 (20)____________ your Dad he could stop it all.
You'll never (21)________ like common people.
You'll never do what common people do.
You'll never (22)________ like common people.
You'll never watch your life slide out of view
and dance, and drink, and screw
because there's nothing (23)________ to do.

I (24)________ to live with common people like you.
I want to (25)________ with common people like you.
I want to live with common people like you.
I want to live with common people like you.
I want to live with (26)____________ people like you.
I want to live with common people like you.
I (27)________ to live with common people like you.
I want to live (28)________ common people like you.
Aa-aa-ah la la la la...
Oh yeah.
