Common People
She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College That's where I Caught her eye She told me that her Dad was loaded I said, "In that case, I'll have rum and Coca-Cola." She said, "Fine" And then in thirty-seconds time she said (Chorus) "I wanna live like common people I wanna do whatever common people do Wanna sleep with common people I wanna sleep with common people like you." Well, what else could I do? I said, "I'll... 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 got no money." And she just laughed and said, "Oh, you're so funny." I said, "Yeah Well, I can't see anyone else smiling in here Are you sure? (Chorus) Oh, rent a flat above a shop And cut your hair and get a job And 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 (Chorus)
