Pulp - Common People lyrics

This is Common People by Pulp, from their 4th album, Different Class. Common People was released in 1995 as the first single from Different Class. This song belongs to Pulp NOT me. Thanks for watching I hope you love this song because I definitely do ♥

This song really captures the dull rage of being poor.

[MrR]

This song is so British, that it colonised my brain for the night.

[LemureDeiCampiElisi]

This is not a song. It's an anthem.

The way the song and his delivery transitions from nonchalantly playing along the rich girl curiosity to the anger of feeling an animal at the zoo is what I most love about this song.

Reminds me so much of the rich people I used to meet when punk was at its peak. As a poor boy from Bethnal Green, they pissed me off playing poor! Brilliant lyrics from start to finish...!!

[jacqueline]

"if you called your dad he could stop it all..." Ohhh, that lyric...

[soyezzen]

"You wanna sleep with common people like me. But she didn't ... understand". Brilliant!

[James-pmsf]

This is just about the only song recorded after 1989 that I voluntarily listen to, this should become a folk song still sung a hundred years from now, the lyrics are spot on and powerful, and the music works.

[ThatGamesNetwork]

One of the greatest songs of all time this

[AnaliRomero]

Why do I want to cry every time I hear this song for the life I dreamed of and it couldn't be

[em]

This is possibly *the* most working-class, British thing I've ever heard.













I love it.

[tristianryliegh]

I was humming this in science, and my teacher gave me a smile.

[jbsmith]

Relevant even more in today's Britain than it was back then. Timeless

[laurend.]

I got into Pulp because MCR covered this song, so glad I did. Pulp are great. :)

[beendoneagain]

Re-visiting this song makes me realise how brilliant it is....

[morwenna]

"dance and drink and screw, because there's nothing else to do" accurate 😐

[deed.]

Love this song and the way he delivers it.

[evanmoore]

Not too many perfect songs written in time. This is one of them.

[philtaylor]

An absolute great song from a fantastic band

[naheenisapoet]

I thought this was a romance song then I realized he was dissing her
