Sorry if this has beem posted before.
Libetina's "Gothic People" is a parody to Pulp's "Normal People" and it's quite a laugh.
Here's the interesting part:
(...)
cause when you lay in bed at night
revering Eldritch on the walls
(...)
Well, the whole song is a joke but I'm missing half the jokes.
Who, amongst you nice people, will transcript it for me? Who will make my day? Many good karma points if you do.
I've uploaded the song:

This link can become idle but if necessary I'll send it to you privately.
Not that I'm goth, no sir, I just want to mock my "other" friends.
And boy, I do need a laugh.
Many thanks beforehand.
Eldritch mentioned in Libetina's "Gothic People"

Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

Thank you. I would like to send it to a "Common People" (Pulp) fan. Who shall I say this version is from?
Yet, no one has transcripted the Libetina version for me.
My link must be idle by now. If anyone's interested, I can send it again.

Here you go.
She came from Leeds
She had a first for knowledge
She studied English at some Sheffield college
That’s where I caught her eye
She told me that her dad was loaded
I suddenly kissed her black and lager
She said fine
And than a floating second time
She said
I wanna live like Gothic people
I wanna do whatever gothic people do
I wanna sleep with gothic people
I wanna sleep with gothic people like you
But what else could I do
I said ah, I’ll see what I can do
I took her to the Gothlam market
I don’t know why, but I had to start it somewhere
So I start it there
Oh Serpentine you got no money
She just laughed and so oh you’re so funny
I said yeah, but I don’t see anyone else sliding in the air
Are you sure
you wanna live like gothic people
You wanna see whatever gothic people see
You wanna sleep with gothic people
You wanna sleep with gothic people like me
But she didn’t understand
She just frowned and held my hand
Rent a flat above a shop
Dye your hair and quit your job
Take some speed and act real cool
Pretend you went to public school
Still you’ll never get it right
cause when you lay in bed at night
revering Eldritch on the walls
If you called your daddy stop you
Oh yeah
You’ll never live like gothic people
You’ll never do what gothic people do
Never fail like gothic people
Never watch your life slide out of view
And than dance, drink and screw
Cause there’s nothing else to do
Sing along with the gothic people
Sing along and it might just get you through
Laugh along with the gothic people
Laugh along even though they’re laughing at you
And the stupid things that you do
Because you think Goths are cool
I wanna live with gothic people
I wanna live with gothic people like you
Oh yeah
