Текст песни People Like Us - Paul Heaton feat. Jacqui Abbott

People like us we go to the gym
We're married to a Dan or a Tim
If the waistlines are wide
Then the chances are slim
We'll allow them our house to come in

If to uni' they went more time will be spent
And divided by ten if they've not
It's not your opinions
Or colour that counts
It's the brand of wellie you got

Life's a beach but they're all on it
White flight got there first
Catch a falling star and wish upon it
You're never gonna equal their purse

People like us we subtly move
The goalposts you score through at school
Just when your child is on the attack
We'll move the posts 20 feet back

That's why Rooney and Ronaldo we hate
Cause they scaled university gate
A good house and a good
Double barrelled surname
Should not be won playing a game

Life's a beach but they're all on it
White flight got there first
Catch a falling star and wish upon it
You're never gonna equal their purse

A second house in the south of France
A third and a fourth in the bank
People like them got lucky again
And it's people like us they won't thank

Coffee in hand
Prevents the Sieg Heil
They've got in their system
For folk without style
Folks without style
Are scum and they're chavs
And the only Sieg Hell
Is to have nots from haves
Have nots from haves

People like us, we know what we are
The clobber, the house and the car
People like you, we know what you're not
You're none of the things that we've got

With your head in the clouds
And your nose in the air
We can see right up where it bleeds
You think you're the queen
Of the Didsbury scene
But to me you're more Topshop in Leeds

Life's a beach but they're all on it
White flight got there first
Catch a falling star and wish upon it
You're never gonna equal their purse
