OK, a challenge for you lots while I spend the next day writing chapter 21 (had med school write up this week so I've been busy, sorry).

As you may (or may not) have heard Jarvis Cocker is doing the theme for the fourth Harry Potter Movie and Franz Ferdinand are being the band for the xmas do.

So, here are the lyrics for 3 Pulp songs (Cocker's band). Common people, Disco 2000 and My Body May Die.

Your Mish is to change the to one of the following so it becomes a song fiction, all three should be easy to adapt. Post it in the reviews and make me a happy lass. Cheers.

COMMON PEOPLE

She came from Greece she had a thirst for knowledge, She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College,nthat's where I caught her eye.

She told me that her Dad was loaded, I said in that case I'll have a rum and coke-cola. She said fine and in thirty 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, 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 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 call your Dad he could stop it all.

You'll never live like common people, you'll never do what 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 because there's nothing else to do.

Sing along with the common people, sing along and it might just get you
thru', 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.

DISCO 2000

Well we were born within one hour of each other. Our mothers said we could be sister and brother.Your name is Deborah. (Deborah). It never suited ya.

Oh they thought that when we grew up we'd get married, never split up.We never did it, Although often I thought of it.

Oh Deborah do you recall. Your house was very small with wood chip on the wall. When I came around to call you didn't notice me at all.

I said let's all meet up in the year 2000. Won't it be strange when we're all fully grown. Be there at 2 o'clock by the fountain down the road.

I never knew that you'd get married. I would be living down here on my own on that damp and lonely Thursday years ago.

You were the first girl at school to get breasts. Martyn said that yours were the best. The boys all loved you but I was a mess. I had to watch them trying to get you undressed. We were friends but that was as far as it went. I used to walk you home. Sometimes it meant nothing to you cause you were so very popular.

Oh yeah, oh yeah.

And now you've paid your money and you've taken your choice. I know we'll never meet again but I want you to know, want you to know that I remember every single thing. Oh what are you doing Sunday baby. Would you like to come and meet me maybe you can even bring your baby. Ohhh ooh ooh. Ooh ooh ooh ooh.

MY BODY MAY DIE

I don't really think you know
Just what you're getting into
Maybe you think this is just
Another fight to the death

Come out with your hands raised
'Cos I've surrounded this place
Oh no, there's no escape
I've got you covered, yeah

My body may die
But my heart will keep loving you, baby
My body may die...

You thought I would leave you
I could never leave you

Wherever you go
I will be
By your side

(The nights are cold
Without you to hold
I can't see you
I can't see you in the dark)

You thought I would leave you
I could never leave you
Wherever you go
I will be
By your side

(You can't hide...)

My body may die but my heart will keep loving you, baby
Our love will survive the passing of time, believe me, believe me
