Is this me?

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.
