How Eastern Europe Got Lost In The West
Common People
She came from Greece,She had a thirst for knowledge
You'll never live like common people
You'll never do what ever common people do
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
She studied sculpture at Saint 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 rum and Coca-Cola"
She said "fine"
And then in thirty seconds time she said
"I wanna live like common people
I wanna do whatever common people do
Wanna sleep with common people
I wanna sleep with common people like you"
Well, what else could I do?
I said "I'll, 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 got no money"
And she just laughed and said, "Oh, you're so funny"
I said, "Yeah, well, I can't see anyone else smiling in here"
Are you sure?"

You wanna live like common people
You wanna see whatever common people see
Wanna sleep with common people
You wanna sleep with common people like me?
But she didn’t understand
And she just smiled and held my hand
Oh, rent a flat above a shop
You wanna see whatever common people see
Wanna sleep with common people
You wanna sleep with common people like me?
But she didn’t understand
And she just smiled and held my hand
Oh, rent a flat above a shop
You'll never live like common people

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 will bite you and never warn you
Look out, they'll tear your insides out
'Cause everybody hates a tourist
Especially one who, who thinks it's all such a laugh
Yeah, and the chip stains and grease will come out in the bath
Sing along and it might just get you through
Laugh along with the common people

Rent a flat above a shop
Cut your hair and get a job
And smoke some fags and play some pool
Pretend you never went to school
But still you'll never get it right
'Cause when you're laid in bed at night
Watching roaches climb the wall
If you called your dad he could stop it all, yeah
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
Wanna live with common people like you
Wanna live with common people like you

Update 1 september: Duitse wapenleveranties naar Israël stijgen naar ongekende hoogte in 2026
'Since the beginning of Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza in October 2023, Germany has been consistently, albeit with fluctuating intensity, approving licences for the export of military equipment to Israel. More specifically, Germany approved arms export licences worth approximately 326.5 million Euro in 2023 [245.6 million Euro from October 2023 onwards]; 163.8 million Euro in 2024; 201.6 million Euro in 2025; and 799.3 million Euro in the first six months of 2026.'
Seems Austin Powers had his hair grown back
Listen. He didn't say 'Yours', fool! US will be on top of it all! I don't speak Russian, but even though the Russians use a translater I don't think Putin is already retired and could perfectly understand what was said, it's maffia language after all.
