I came from a good home, a house full of terraced dreams That was enough for me, you know, you had to see it to believe All the late nights, good times, the mistakes And the heartbreaks, when I get lost, I go back to where I started Common people, nothing's changed, you'll hear strangers singing your name If you act like you're one of us, if you act like you're one of us Common people, not who you know, just how far you're willing to go If you act like you're one of us, if you act like you're one of us I took care of the local, no deep pockets but big hearts Do you see what I see? Now we're all out screaming on the dance floor All the late nights, the good times, the heartbreaks, the mistakes And the heartbreaks, when I get lost, I go back to where I started Common people, nothing's changed, you'll hear strangers singing your name If you act like you're one of us, if you act like you're one of us Common people, not who you know, just how far you're willing to go If you act like you're one of us, if you act like you're one of us Common people, nothing's changed, you'll hear strangers singing your name If you act like you're one of us, just act like you're one of us Common people, not who you know, just how far you're willing to go If you act like you're one of us, just act like you're one of us Just act like you're one of us Common people, not who you know, just how far you're willing to go
