Lyrics Common People - The Wurzels

Common People

I said «In that case I’ll have a rum and coca-cola.»
She said «Fine.»
Well what else could I do
I said «I'll see what I can do.»
«Oh you’re so funny.»
I said «Yeah?
You will never understand
How it feels to live your life
With no meaning or control
You are amazed that they exist
Rent a flat above a shop
Cut your hair and get a job
Smoke some fags and play some pool
But still you’ll never get it right
'Cause when you’re laid in bed at night
If you called your dad he could stop it all
Yeah
You’ll never live like common people
You’ll never do what common people do
You’ll never fail like common people
You’ll never watch your life slide out of view
And then dance and drink and screw
Because there’s nothing else to do
I want to live with common people like you…
