She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge,<br>
she studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College,<br>
that's where I,<br>
caught her eye.<br>
She told me that her Dad was loaded,<br>
I said "In that case I'll have a rum and coca-cola."<br>
She said "Fine."<br>
and in thirty seconds time she said,

I want to live like common people,<br>
I want to do whatever common people do,<br>
I want to sleep with common people,<br>
I want to sleep with common people,<br>
like you."

Well what else could I do -<br>
I said "I'll see what I can do."<br>
I took her to a supermarket,<br>
I don't know why but I had to start it somewhere,<br>
so it started there.<br>
I said pretend you've got no money,<br>
she just laughed and said,<br>
"Oh you're so funny."<br>
I said "yeah?<br>
Well I can't see anyone else smiling in here.<br>
Are you sure you want to live like common people,<br>
you want to see whatever common people see,<br>
you want to sleep with common people,<br>
you want to sleep with common people,<br>
like me."<br>
But she didn't understand,<br>
she just smiled and held my hand.<br>
Rent a flat above a shop,<br>
cut your hair and get a job.<br>
Smoke some fags and play some pool,<br>
pretend you never went to school.<br>
But still you'll never get it right,<br>
cos when you're laid in bed at night,<br>
watching roaches climb the wall,<br>
if you call your Dad he could stop it all.<br>


You'll never live like common people,<br>
you'll never do what common people do,<br>
you'll never fail like common people,<br>
you'll never watch your life slide out of view,<br>
and dance and drink and screw,<br>
because there's nothing else to do.<br>

Sing along with the common people,<br>
sing along and it might just get you through,<br>
laugh along with the common people,<br>
laugh along even though they're laughing at you,<br>
and the stupid things that you do.<br>
Because you think that poor is cool.<br>

I want to live with common people,<br>
I want to live with common people etc...<br>
