Sheik, Duncan - Not A Common Man Lyrics






Look at history, open the books,
There are statues with great looks,
There are gods, there are kings,
I'm pretty sure I'm the same thing.
Beyond boundaries, beyond rules,
I've been taught in the best schools,
There is little I won't do,
Is the same thing true of you?

I am needing so much more,
Every pleasure is a bore,
I am something other than a common man,
I'm not a common man.

I do suspect I'm one of few,
I can show you something new,
All the constraints, they are all gone,
I'll confess no interest in right and wrong.

I am needing so much more,
Every pleasure is a bore,
I am something other than a common man,
I'm not a common man.

I am greedy, you're a whore,
What's the difference? Who's keeping score?
There's no reason to be fair,
Doesn't matter if you're not there.
Are you losing too much blood?
Let it flow, let it flood,
Just keep breathing, if you can
And you will see I'm not a common man.

I am needing so much more,
Every pleasure is a bore,
I am something other than a common man,
I'm not a common man.

  27. I.... H....

    It kinda sounds like Brendon Urie, but its Matt Smith and idk how to handle that

  28. a.... 1....

    i love this song and him and this is WAY too underrated

  29. D.... L....

    just want everyone to know that i would die for matt smith

    D.... L....

    @Manon Segur every woman who doesn´t feel like us must be dead or lesbian, haha this is a joke, of course

    D.... L....

    awww creepy 🙂

    D.... L....

    @cache marzipan what if you're a lesbian but still like him so much that you would?

    D.... L....

    @A cup of Tae with some Suga Kookie hahahaha I´m not a lesbian, so I cannot really answer, I´m hetero, but a-sexual, means nothing than finding actors and musicians fine

  30. �.... ....

    my sister literally asked me whats wrong after i screamed hearing this

    🤘😂

  32. A.... M....

    I NEED A VIDEO

  33. g.... ....

    fuck me he's good

  34. M.... C....

    oh my god I keep seeing the 11th doctor in my head

    M.... C....

    Dark!doctor AU 😂

  35. P.... ....

    Holy sHIT, bless this man. I got so many goosebumps when he started singing.

  36. T.... M....

    Hate me for saying this but I honestly prefer Benjamin Walker in the play.

  37. D.... ....

    AMERICAN PSYCHO is Cool!

    D.... ....

    Damla hahahhah

    D.... ....

    😂😂

  38. m.... b....

    I'm completely in love with this song ♥

  39. s.... b....

    Didn't think I could love this man anymore, then he goes and learns how to sing! Fucking hell...

  40. E.... ....

    Can anyone send me the notes the acoustic guitar is playing at the start they're nowhere to be found online, i would work them out but i can't be asked at the min, cheers x

  41. P.... ....

    Is the play good?

    P.... ....

    Cxnnorz yeah I actually like it a lot! The broadway version is not as good as the London cast recording (this Version) but it’s worth giving a shot! There are some things that I don’t like that much about it but you should definitely give it a shot if you’re into musicals

    P.... ....

    Cxnnorz the musical is amazing!! the Broadway run was better than the London run - Benjamin Walker was a better Patrick Bateman in my opinion than Matt Smith but to each their own - but I would highly recommend listening to/watching it

  42. K.... O....

    4 Daleks disliked this video

    K.... O....

    Still only four 5 months later

    K.... O....

    It's 3 now

  43. v.... _....

    Jesus how did Matt get so good at singing😍

  44. J.... P....

    I can not belive it's HIM! <3<3 So beautiful

  45. D.... T....

    Hearing Matt Smith say "Whore" was very odd. 1:40

    D.... T....

    yeah. you wouldn't really expect that a immature goofy alien- Human would say something like that

    D.... T....

    It's just weird cause in his mouth it sounds so elegant!

    D.... T....

    Well, Patrick Bateman is a sociopathic guy who's shallow but charming....and this musical is pretty much a satire on American culture of that time.

    D.... T....

    It’s cause it has to rhyme/flow with score

  46. G.... T....

    I can't stop listening to this

  47. D.... T....

    I wonder what this would sound like in his real English accent.

  48. A.... A....

    My god man, he sings so well, im not believe haha

  49. T.... ....

    I think I'm going to apply for acting for college using this song.

    T.... ....

    TheOverlyHappyGoth good luck

  50. c.... ....

    holy shitttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

  51. J.... ....

    I literally got chills when he started singing 😂

    J.... ....

    I GOT CHILLS RIGHT BEFORE I READ THIS I PROMISE YOU

  52. S.... B....

    I bought this album off Itunes.... Listen to it all the time. 👏🏽👍🏼😎❤️ This so needed to be filmed and released on dvd.

  53. M.... A....

    Is this really Matt Smith? Same dreaming-like voice, but American accent and non of that Doctor's clumsyness.

    M.... A....

    Yep, it's really Matt!

    M.... A....

    He's really good at an American accent~! - Says a Canadian who struggles to fake any accent but is sorta good at an English accent

    Matt Smith needs to teach me how to accent X'D

    M.... A....

    Mr. AnselmTheWeird0 its matt smith

    M.... A....

    i like the clumsyness the same as his other talents

  54. T.... S....

    yeah this is unique

  55. M.... M....

    holy shit

  56. m.... c....

    HOLY HELL this is matt smith??

    m.... c....

    michael cole yep

  57. S.... ....

    So... Is it ready Matt Smith who sing that? On this video? If it is, I love him so much ( more than I loved him before *-*)

    S.... ....

    it doesnt seem like that in the first few seconds, but im pretty sure it is

    S.... ....

    I'm confuse, there's no accent, I've never heard him without accent before

    S.... ....

    Yeah this is the wonderful Matt :)

    S.... ....

    Is weird hearing these British actors with American accents but with the roles it makes sense why they did drop their accents

    S.... ....

    How did two totally separate people manage to say the same insanely stupid thing in the same comment thread. 'American' isn't the default accent, guys. He didn't 'drop' his normal accent, he effected an American one. He's putting on an accent, not dropping one. The stereotype of Americans being obsessed with themselves clearly has a lot of validity.

  58. H.... ....

    he started singing andi had to pause because HOLY SMOKES!

  59. M.... T....

    Wow awesome song

  60. N.... M....

    omg I love this so much

  61. M.... ....

    *virtually screams and runs around house*

  62. L.... L....

    I love Matt Smith :)

  63. R.... A....

    //Screams

  64. N.... F....

    Matt S2

  65. A.... R....
