PULP Common People TESTO:
She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge.
She studied sculpture at St. 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 then 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."
And what else could I do?
I said, "Ah, 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."
And she just laughed and said, "Oh, you're so funny."
I said, "Yes? Well, I can't see anyone else smiling in here. Are you sure...
"You want to live like common people?
You want to do whatever common people do?
You want to sleep with common people?
You want to sleep with common people like me??"
But she didn't understand,
And she just smiled and held my hand...
Well, 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
Because when you're laid in bed at night,
Watching roaches climb the wall,
If you called your dad, he could stop it all, yes!
You'll never live like common people!
You'll never do whatever 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!!
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.
Like a dog lying in a corner,
They'll bite you and never warn you.
Look out!
They'll tear your insides out
Because everybody hates a tourist,
Especially one who thinks it's all such a laugh,
Yes, and that chip stains and grease will come out in the bath!
You will never understand
How it feels to live your life
With no meaning or control,
And with nowhere left to go.
You are amazed that they exist,
And they burn so bright whilst you can only wonder why...
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
Because when you're laid in bed at night,
Watching roaches climb the wall,
If you called your dad, he could stop it all, yes!
Never live like common people!
Never do what common people do!
Never fail like common people!
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,
I want to live with common people like you,
I want to live with common people like you,
I want to live with common people like you,
I want to live with common people like you,
I want to live with common people like you,
La, la, la, la, la, la, oh, yes...

Pulp Common People TRADUZIONE
Gente comune
Lei veniva dalla Grecia, era assetata di sapere;
studiava scultura al Saint Martin's College,
è lì che mi notò.
Mi disse che suo padre era ricco sfondato;
le dissi "In tal caso, prendo un rum e coca"
e lei replicò: "Ok". E trenta secondi dopo, disse:
"Voglio vivere come la gente comune;
voglio fare quello che fa la gente comune.
Voglio dormire con la gente comune;
voglio dormire con gente comune come te."
E che altro avrei potuto fare?
Risposi "Ah, vedrò che posso fare".
La portai a un supermercato,
non so perché, ma da qualche parte dovevo pur iniziare
e iniziò proprio lì.
Dissi "Fingi di non avere un soldo."
E lei rise "Oh, sei troppo divertente."
"Sì? Beh, non vedo altre persone che ridono qui. Sei sicura che ...
"Vuoi vivere come la gente comune?
Vuoi fare qualunque cosa faccia la gente comune?
Vuoi dormire con la gente comune?
Vuoi dormire con gente comune come me?"
Ma lei non capì
e si limitò a sorridere e mi strinse la mano ...
(Ritornello)
Beh, affitta un appartamento sopra un negozio;
tagliati i capelli e trova lavoro.
Fuma qualche sigaretta e gioca a biliardo;
fingi di non essere mai andata a scuola.
Comunque, non ce la farai mai
perché quando sei stesa a letto, la notte,
e guardi gli scarafaggi che strisciano sul muro,
se chiamassi tuo papà, lui potrebbe fermare tutto questo, sì!
Non vivrai mai come la gente comune
Non farai mai quel che fa la gente comune
Non fallirai mai come la gente comune
Non vedrai mai la tua vita scivolare dietro l'angolo
per poi ballare e bere e sco*are
perché non c'è nient'altro da fare!
Canta anche tu con la gente comune!
Unisciti al coro e magari ce la farai.
Ridi anche tu con la gente comune...
Unisciti alla risata, anche se ridono di te,
e le stupide cose che fai
pensando che essere poveri sia figo.
Come un cane accucciato in un angolo
ti morderanno senza preavviso.
Attenta!
Ti strapperanno le viscere
perché tutti odiano un turista,
specialmente una che trova tutto così divertente,
una che crede che le macchie di patatine e il grasso si sciolgano nella vasca da bagno!
Non capirai mai
cosa si prova a vivere una vita
senza senso né controllo
senza alcun posto dove andare.
Sei meravigliata che esistano
e bruciano fulgidi mentre tu resti a chiederti perché ...
(Ritornello)
Voglio vivere con gente comune come te (x 6)
