Pulp - Common People

  • 0:08 - 0:11
    She came from Greece
    she had a thirst for knowledge
  • 0:11 - 0:14
    She studied sculpture
    at Saint Martin's College
  • 0:14 - 0:20
    That's where I,
    caught her eye
  • 0:22 - 0:25
    She told me
    that her Dad was loaded
  • 0:25 - 0:28
    I said, "In that case
    I'll have a rum and coca-cola"
  • 0:28 - 0:30
    She said, "Fine"
  • 0:31 - 0:36
    And then in thirty
    seconds time she said
  • 0:36 - 0:39
    I wanna live
    like common people
  • 0:39 - 0:43
    I wanna do
    whatever common people do
  • 0:43 - 0:46
    I wanna sleep
    with common people
  • 0:46 - 0:51
    I wanna sleep
    with common people like you
  • 0:51 - 0:54
    Well,
    what else could I do?
  • 0:54 - 0:58
    I said,
    "I'll see what I can do"
  • 1:00 - 1:03
    I took her
    to a supermarket
  • 1:03 - 1:08
    I don't know why
    but I had to start it somewhere
  • 1:08 - 1:12
    So it started
    there
  • 1:14 - 1:17
    I said pretend
    you've got no money
  • 1:17 - 1:19
    She just laughed and said,
    "Oh you're so funny"
  • 1:19 - 1:22
    I said, "Yeah?
  • 1:22 - 1:25
    But I can't see anyone
    else smiling in here
  • 1:25 - 1:27
    Are you sure?
  • 1:27 - 1:30
    You wanna live
    like common people
  • 1:30 - 1:34
    You wanna see
    whatever common people see
  • 1:34 - 1:37
    Wanna sleep
    with common people
  • 1:37 - 1:41
    You wanna sleep
    with common people like me
  • 1:41 - 1:44
    But she didn't
    understand
  • 1:44 - 1:49
    She just smiled
    and held my hand
  • 1:49 - 1:52
    Rent a flat
    above a shop
  • 1:52 - 1:55
    Cut your hair
    and get a job
  • 1:55 - 1:59
    Smoke some fags
    and play some pool
  • 1:59 - 2:02
    Pretend
    you never went to school
  • 2:02 - 2:05
    But still you'll never
    get it right
  • 2:05 - 2:08
    'Cause when you're laid
    in bed at night
  • 2:08 - 2:12
    Watching roaches
    climb the wall
  • 2:12 - 2:16
    If you called your Dad
    he could stop it all, yeah
  • 2:16 - 2:19
    You'll never live
    like common people
  • 2:19 - 2:23
    You'll never do
    whatever common people do
  • 2:23 - 2:26
    You'll never fail
    like common people
  • 2:26 - 2:30
    You'll never watch your life
    slide out of view
  • 2:30 - 2:34
    And dance
    and drink (and screw)
  • 2:34 - 2:38
    Because
    there's nothing else to do
  • 3:05 - 3:07
    Sing along with
    the common people
  • 3:07 - 3:11
    Sing along and it might
    just get you through
  • 3:11 - 3:14
    Laugh along
    with the common people
  • 3:14 - 3:18
    Laugh along even though
    they're laughing at you
  • 3:18 - 3:20
    And the stupid
    things that you do
  • 3:20 - 3:26
    Because
    you think that poor is cool
  • 3:29 - 3:33
    I wanna live
    with common people like you
  • 3:33 - 3:36
    I wanna live
    with common people like you
  • 3:36 - 3:39
    I wanna live
    with common people like you
  • 3:39 - 3:42
    I wanna live
    with common people like you
  • 3:42 - 3:45
    I wanna live
    with common people like you
  • 3:45 - 3:49
    I wanna live
    with common people like you
  • 3:49 - 3:52
    La la la la,
    you!
  • 3:52 - 3:55
    La la la la,
    you!
  • 3:55 - 3:59
    La la la la la la,
    oh you!
