Common People Lyrics by Jamie Webster

We Get By

2020

[Intro]
Woah Woah Woahhh
[Verse 1]
The morning rain don't wash away
I'll dry yer bloodshot eyes
As we make our way to part of life that we despise
Have you ever seen the sign
Of bedtime faces that don't say goodnight
[Pre-Chorus]
Woah Woah Woahhh
[Chorus]
Heres to the people of common civilisation
Our time has come to have our day
We tried so hard to achieve emancipation
Say we were born to be this way
So Mr man don't tell me
That my work is overdue
I thought of far away
It seemed by everyone but you
We're taking the 5:30 train
To the middle of this town
We're common people
We're insane
And you can't bring us down today
[Verse 2]
So officer is it your arse
That I'm supposed to kiss
I'm sorry lad today
I think i'll give that one a miss
Sometimes we cause a fuss
I'll tell you this
But don't you know dear boy
They say ignorance is bliss
[Pre-Chorus]
Woah Woah Woahhh
[Chorus]
Heres to the people of common civilisation
Our time has come to have our day
We tried so hard to achieve emancipation
Say we were born to be this way
So Mr man don't tell me
That my work is overdue
I thought of far away
It seemed by everyone but you
We're taking the 5:30 train
To the middle of this town
We're common people
We're insane
And you can't bring us down today
[Outro]
(Woah Woah Woahhh)
We're common people
We're insane
And you can't bring us down today
