Paroles
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 a rum and coca-cola."
She said "Fine."
and in thirty seconds time she said,

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

Well what else could I do -
I said "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've got no money,
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 you want to live like common people,
you want to see whatever common people see,
you want to sleep with common people,
you want to sleep with common people,
like me."
But she didn't understand,
she just smiled and held my hand.
Rent a flat above a shop,
cut your hair and get a job.
Smoke some fags and play some pool,
pretend you never went to school.
But still you'll never get it right,
cos when you're laid in bed at night,
watching roaches climb the wall,
if you call your Dad he could stop it all.

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 dance and drink and screw,
because there's nothing else to do.

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

I want to live with common people,
I want to live with common people etc…

J'ai dû écouter cette chanson 300 fois, je n'ai jamais réussi à m'en lasser. Pareil pour "Disco 2000"… Par contre, j'avais été déçu par le reste de l'album "Different class". L'album suivant "This is hardcore" c'était plutôt l'inverse, pas de gros singles, mais un bon album dans l'ensemble.

Toute ma jeunesse, ça. Blur, Supergrass mes chouchous, Oasis, Suede et j'en passe, les beaux jours de la britpop.. Tout n'a pas super bien vieilli, mais dans le cas de Pulp ça se laisse réécouter, globalement (à part l'album Separations).

C'est la version (full length version) sur le CD single et aussi presente sur certains maxi (en 33 tours)
La version sur l'album Get Frisly with Pulp est plus courte.

Pt come on .. il y a aussi un clip
