Hindi People
Everybody better be liking this no?
She came from Kent her name was Lucy Parker
Her skin was white but she prefered it darker
That’s why I, caught her eye
We met at York she was a first year student
She wore a sari cause she thought it prudent, I thought fine
And then in 30 seconds time she said
I want to live like Hindi people
I want to do what ever Hindi people do
I want to sleep with Hindi people
I want to sleep with Hindi people like you
Well what else could I do, I smiled and said ‘Do you want a vindaloo?’I said I’d find a groovy gig and take her
I like the Verve but she said Kula Shaker their musics' tops
Just like Cornershops
She said "I wanna live like Hindi people
I wanna eat whatever Hindi people eat
I want to dress like the Hindi people
I want to wear mendhi on my feet
But she didn’t understand
You just painted on your hand!Comb your hair and be polite
Do your homework every night
Don’t smoke fags and don’t play pool
Do extremely well at school
Take a medical degree,
Graduate at thirty-three
Move back in with mom and dad,
Even though they drive you raving mad…you sure
You wanna live like Hindi people
You wanna see whatever Hindi people see
You wanna live with Hindi people
You wanna watch your films on c-tv
But you’ll never comprehend cause for you it’s just a trend
Dressing up like the Hindi people
In your favourite Giorgio Selvaar
Dancing round with the Hindi people
Telling me that you want to learn sitar
But you’ll never score with me cause I was born in CoventryCoventry
Oh yeah!

That's great! Too funny!
It's a take on Pulp's 'Different People'.
Different People - Pulp
She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge
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 30 seconds time she said
I want to live like common people
I want to do whatever common people do
I want to sleep with common people
I want to sleep with common people like you
Well what else could I do?
I said 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've got no money
but she just laughed
and said oh you're so funny
I said Yeah
Well I don't see anyone else smiling in here
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 called your dad he could stop it all
yeah
You'll never live like common people
You'll never do whatever common people do
You'll never fail like common people
You'll never watch your life slide out of view
and then dance and drink and screw
'cos there's nothing else to do
Sing along with the common people
Sing along and it might just get you throug
Laugh along with the common people
Laugh along although 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 and never warn you
Look out
they'll tear your insides out
'cos everybody hates a tourist
especially one who thinks
it's all such a laugh
yeah and the chip stain's grease
will come out in the bath
You will never understand
how it feels to live your life
with no meaning or control
and with nowhere else to go
You are amazed that they exist
and they burn so bright
while you can only wonder why
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 called your dad he could stop it all
You'll never live like common people
You'll never do whatever 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
'cos there's nothing else to do
I want to live with common people like you.....
