[verse 1]
people like us, we go to the gym
we’re married to a dan or a tim
if the waistlines are wide, then the chances are slim
we’ll allow them our house to come in

if to uni they went, more time will be spent
and divided by ten if they’ve not
it’s not your opinions or colour that counts
it’s the brand of wellie you got

[chorus 1]
life’s a beach, but they’re all on it
white flag got there first
catch a falling star, and wish upon it
you’re never gonna equal their purse

[verse 2]
people like us, we subtly move
the goalposts you score through at school
just when your child is on the attack
we’ll move the post twenty feet back

that’s why rooney and ronaldo we hate
’cause they scaled university gate
a good house and a good double-barrelled surname
should not be won playing a game

[chorus 1]
life’s a beach, but they’re all on it
white flag got there first
catch a falling star, and wish upon it
you’re never gonna equal their purse

[chorus 2]
it’s second house in the south of france
a third and a fourth in the bank
people like them got lucky again
and it’s people like us they won’t thank

[bridge]
coffee in hand prevents the ‘seig heil’
they’ve got in their system for folk without style
folks without style are sc-m and they’re chavs
and the only ‘seig heil’ is to have-nots from haves

have-nots from haves…

[verse 3]
people like us, we know what we are
the clobber, the house, and the car
people like you, we know what you’re not
you’re none of the things that we’ve got

with your head in the clouds, and your nose in the air
we can see your right up where it bleeds
you think you’re the queen of the didsbury scene
but to me, you’re more topshop in leeds

[chorus 1]
life’s a beach, but they’re all on it
white flag got there first
catch a falling star, and wish upon it
you’re never gonna equal their purse

[chorus 2]
it’s second house in the south of france
a third or fourth in the bank
people like them got lucky again
and it’s people like us they won’t thank
