Artist/Band: Talking Heads
Lyrics for Song: People Like Us
Lyrics for Album: Collection [2007]



In 1950 when I was born

Papa couldn't afford to buy us much

He said be proud of what you are

There's something special 'bout people like us



People like us

(Who will answer the telephone)

People like us

(Growing as big as a house)

People like us

(Gonna make it because)



We don't want freedom

We don't want justice

We just want someone to love.

Someone to love.u

I was called upon in the 3rd grade class

I gave my answer and it caused a fuss

I'm not the same as ev'ryone else

And times were hard for people like us



People like us

(Who will answer the telephone)

People like us

(Growing as big as a house)

People like us

(Gonna make it because)



What good is freedom?

God laughs at people like us

I see it coming

Like coming down from above



The clouds roll by and the moon comes up

How long must we live in the heat of the sun

Millions of people are waitin' on love

And this is a song about people like us



People like us

(Who answe the telephone)

People like us

(Growing big as a house)

People like us

(Gonna make it because)

We don't want freedom

We don't want justice

We just want someone to love.



Someone to love.

Someone to love.

Someone to love.
