    Roxy Music › In Every Dream Home A Heartache

    (ferry)

    In every dream home a heartache
    And every step I take
    Takes me further from heaven
    Is there a heaven?
    I`d like to think so
    Standards of living
    They´re rising daily
    But home oh sweet home
    It´s only a saying
    From bell push to faucet
    In smart town apartment
    The cottage is pretty
    The main house a palace
    Penthouse perfection
    But what goes on
    What to do there
    Better pray there

    Open plan living
    Bungalow ranch style
    All of its comforts
    Seem so essential
    I bought you mail order
    My plain wrapper baby
    Your skin is like vinyl
    The perfect companion
    You float my new pool
    De luxe and delightful
    Inflatable doll
    My role is to serve you
    Disposable darling
    Can´t throw you away now
    Immortal and life size
    My breath is inside you
    I´ll dress you up daily
    And keep you till death sighs
    Inflatable doll
    Lover ungrateful
    I blew up your body
    But you blew my mind

    Oh those heartaches
    Dreamhome heartaches
    Ring the bells that still can ring
    Forget your perfect offering
    There is a crack, a crack in everything
    That's how the light gets in - Leonard Cohen

    At midnight all the agents
    and the superhuman crew
    Come out and round up everyone
    that knows more than they do
    And they bring them to the factories
    where the heart attack machine
    Is strapped across their shoulders
    and then the kerosine
    Is brought down from the castles
    by insurance men who go
    Check to see that nobody is escaping to
    Desolation Row

    Bob Dylan, Desolation Row
    Who Knows? The Shadow knows!

    NEIL YOUNG LYRICS

    "Rockin' In The Free World"

    There's colors on the street
    Red, white and blue
    People shufflin' their feet
    People sleepin' in their shoes
    But there's a warnin' sign
    on the road ahead
    There's a lot of people sayin'
    we'd be better off dead
    Don't feel like Satan,
    but I am to them
    So I try to forget it,
    any way I can.

    Keep on rockin' in the free world,
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world,
    Keep on rockin' in the free world.

    I see a woman in the night
    With a baby in her hand
    Under an old street light
    Near a garbage can
    Now she puts the kid away,
    and she's gone to get a hit
    She hates her life,
    and what she's done to it
    There's one more kid
    that will never go to school
    Never get to fall in love,
    never get to be cool.

    Keep on rockin' in the free world,
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world,
    Keep on rockin' in the free world.

    We got a thousand points of light
    For the homeless man
    We got a kinder, gentler,
    Machine gun hand
    We got department stores
    and toilet paper
    Got styrofoam boxes
    for the ozone layer
    Got a man of the people,
    says keep hope alive
    Got fuel to burn,
    got roads to drive.

    Keep on rockin' in the free world,
    Keep on rockin' in the free world
    Keep on rockin' in the free world,
    Keep on rockin' in the free world.

    Thanks for bumping this Joe. This is my favorite song, but I can't find a decent version to put in the jukebox. I am adding the English version, but quite frankly have never heard it sung in English and love the Spanish better.

    La Contestacion

    A poco no esta
    duro pa ti
    Pa que sigues asi
    Si aqui esto yo

    Nunca te hacer
    sentido que ya
    parece el final
    Pues fijate en mí
    Encontraras Contestacion

    Fijate en ti
    Muy dentro de ti
    Tu vas a encontrarme a mi
    Para darte amor


    Que evita, que no sientes
    Cuando te tengo cerca de mi
    Yo quiero acerte bien
    Quiero apretarte mas
    Yo quiero que sepas tu

    Que cuando estas cerca de mi
    Ya no tienes que llorar
    Porque yo estaré alli
    Para darte en mi amor


    Que evita, que no sientes
    Cuando te tengo cerca de mi
    Yo quiero acerte bien
    Quiero apretarte mas
    Yo quiero que sepas tu

    Cuando estas cerca de mi
    Ya no tienes que llorar
    Porque yo estaré alli
    Para darte en mi amor

    The English:

    Has it even been so hard on you
    To carry on baby I'm here for you
    Has it ever felt like it's the end
    Well just look at me again and you will surely find
    The answer to everything
    If you take a look inside yourself
    You will surely find me there
    To comfort you
    Baby can you feel it
    When I'm holding you close to me
    I wanna hold you tight and treat you right
    Baby I just want you to know
    When you're with me
    You will never need to cry
    Cause I'll be by your side
    To give all my love to you
    "Greatness is not an act... but a habit.Greatness is not an act... but a habit." -Greg Jennings
