[00:08.43] | She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge |
[00:11.78] | She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College |
[00:14.66] | That's where I caught her eye |
[00:22.53] | She told me that her Dad was loaded |
[00:25.72] | I said In that case I'll have rum and coca-cola |
[00:28.64] | She said fine |
[00:29.53] | |
[00:32.16] | And then in 30 seconds time she said |
[00:36.29] | I want to live like common people“ |
[00:39.70] | I want to do whatever common people do |
[00:43.30] | I want to sleep with common people |
[00:46.74] | I want to sleep with common people like you |
[00:51.18] | Well what else could I do? |
[00:54.32] | I said I'll see what I can do |
[00:57.00] | |
[01:01.14] | I took her to a supermarket |
[01:03.89] | I don't know why |
[01:04.87] | but I had to start it somewhere |
[01:08.74] | so it started there |
[01:14.38] | I said pretend you've got no money |
[01:17.23] | but she just laughed |
[01:18.00] | and said oh you're so funny |
[01:19.90] | |
[01:22.24] | Well I can't see anyone else smiling in here |
[01:24.59] | |
[01:25.79] | Are you sure |
[01:27.54] | you want to live like common people |
[01:30.95] | you want to see whatever common people see |
[01:34.35] | you want to sleep with common people |
[01:37.67] | you want to sleep with common people like me |
[01:40.89] | |
[01:41.80] | But she didn't understand |
[01:44.84] | she just smiled and held my hand |
[01:47.55] | |
[01:49.86] | Rent a flat above a shop |
[01:53.14] | Cut your hair and get a job |
[01:56.03] | Smoke some fags and play some pool |
[01:59.36] | Pretend you never went to school |
[02:02.54] | But still you'll never get it right |
[02:05.82] | 'cos when you're laid in bed at night |
[02:09.18] | watching roaches climb the wall |
[02:12.48] | if you called your dad he could stop it all |
[02:16.00] | yeah |
[02:16.52] | |
[02:16.98] | You'll never live like common people |
[02:20.30] | You'll never do whatever common people do |
[02:23.39] | You'll never fail like common people |
[02:26.59] | You'll never watch your life slide out of view |
[02:30.47] | and then dance and drink and screw |
[02:33.87] | 'cos there's nothing else to do |
[02:38.30] | |
[03:05.13] | Sing along with the common people |
[03:08.22] | Sing along and it might just get you throug |
[03:11.26] | Laugh along with the common people |
[03:14.41] | Laugh along although they're laughing at you |
[03:18.15] | and the stupid things that you do |
[03:21.05] | because you think that poor is cool |
[03:26.16] | |
[03:27.01] | Like a dog lying in a corner |
[03:29.92] | they will bite and never warn you |
[03:32.43] | Look out |
[03:35.10] | they'll tear your insides out |
[03:37.36] | |
[03:39.71] | 'cos everybody hates a tourist |
[03:42.90] | especially one who thinks |
[03:44.74] | it's all such a laugh |
[03:47.24] | yeah and the chip stain's grease |
[03:50.60] | will come out in the bath |
[03:51.61] | You will never understand |
[03:54.34] | how it feels to live your life |
[03:57.35] | with no meaning or control |
[04:00.44] | and with nowhere else to go |
[04:03.53] | You are amazed that they exist |
[04:06.60] | and they burn so bright |
[04:08.27] | while you can only wonder why |
[04:11.93] | |
[04:12.76] | Rent a flat above a shop |
[04:15.78] | Cut your hair and get a job |
[04:18.93] | Smoke some fags and play some pool |
