Like The Smiths ,
Pulp have clever intelligent lyrics , normally about people who are different , lonely and outsiders. Also it took them between 10-15 years to make it....showing dont give up .....
Mis-shapes
Mis-shapes, mistakes, misfits.
Raised on a diet of broken biscuits, oh we don't look the same as you
We don't do the things you do, but we live around here too.
Oh really.
Mis-shapes, mistakes, misfits, we'd like to go to town but we can't risk it
Oh 'cause they just want to keep us out.
You could end up with a smash in the mouth just for standing out.
Oh really. Brothers, sisters, can't you see?
The future's owned by you and me.
There won't be fighting in the street.
They think they've got us beat, but revenge is going to be so sweet.
We're making a move, we're making it now, we're coming out of the side-lines.
Just put your hands up - it's a raid yeah:
We want your homes, we want your lives,
we want the things you won't allow us.
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of - that's our minds.
Check your lucky numbers, that much money could drag you under, oh.
What's the point of being rich if you can't think what to do with it?
'Cause you're so very thick.
Oh we weren't supposed to be, we learnt too much at school now
we can't help but see.
That the future that you've got mapped out is nothing much to shout about.
We're making a move, we're making it now,
We're coming out of the side-lines.
Just put your hands up - it's a raid.
We want your homes, we want your lives,
we want the things you won't allow us.
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of - that's our minds.
Brothers, sisters, can't you see?
The future's owned by you and me.
There won't be fighting in the street.
They think they've got us beat but revenge is going to be so sweet.
We're making a move. We're making it now.
We're coming out of the sidelines.
Just put your hands up - it's a raid.
We want your homes, we want your lives,
we want the things you won't allow us.
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of - that'sour minds.
And that's our minds. Yeah.

I was at this concert...near the front
PULP_ COMMON PEOPLE live at Glastonbury
He says at the start
" .....ive said most things, the only thing is you cant buy feelings and you cant buy anything worth having also the other thing is if you want something to happen enough then it actually will happen ....ok ?.....and i believe that ....in fact thats why we are stood on this stage today after 15 years , cause we wanted it too happen , you know what i mean ? .......so , if a lanky git like me can do it , and us lot, you can do it too alright ?......"
Like i said for over 12 years , no-one wanted to know.....then they ended up headlinging Glastonbury.
Today i have no reason to believe what he said........but tomorrow ???????
