  1. StereotypesVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Stereotypes

    The suburbs they are dreaming, they're a twinkle in her eye
    She's been feeling frisky since her husband said goodbye
    She wears a low-cut t-shirt, runs a little B&B
    She's most accommodating when she's in her lingerie

    Wife swapping is your future
    You know that it would suit ya

    Yes, the stereotypes
    There must be more to life

    All your life you're dreaming and then you stop dreaming
    From time to time, you know you should be going on another bender

    The suburbs they are sleeping, but she's dressing up tonight
    She likes a man in uniform, he likes to wear it tight
    They're on the lover's sofa, they're on the patio
    And when the fun is over, watch themselves on video

    The neighbours may be staring
    But they are just not caring

    Yes, the stereotypes
    There must be more to life

    All your life you're dreaming and then you stop dreaming
    From time to time, you know you're going on another bender

    Yes, there must be more to life
    Than stereotypes

    Wife swapping is your future
    You know that it would suit ya

    Yes, the stereotypes
    There must be more to life

    All your life you're dreaming and then you stop dreaming
    From time to time, you know you should be going on another bender

    Yes, there must be more to life
    Than stereotypes

    All your life you're dreaming and then you stop dreaming
    From time to time, you know you should go on another bender
    Before you come to offend her

  2. Country HouseVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Country House

    So the story begins

    City dweller, successful fella
    Thought to himself: Ops, I've got a lot of money
    Caught in a rat race terminally
    I'm a professional cynic, but my heart's not in it
    I'm paying the price of living life at the limit
    Caught up in the century's anxiety

    Yes, it preys on him (preys on him)
    He's getting thin (getting thin)
    Try the simple life

    He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
    Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
    He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
    Oh, it's like an animal farm, that's the rural charm in the country

    He's got morning glory and life's a different story
    Everything's going Jackanory
    Touched with his own mortality
    He's reading Balzac, knocking back Prozac
    It's a helping hand that makes you feel wonderfully bland
    Oh, it's a century's remedy

    For the faint at heart (faint at heart)
    A new start (new start)
    Try the simple life

    He lives in a house, a very big house in the country
    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad)
    He's got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country
    (I don't know why)
    He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad)
    You should come to no harm on the animal farm in the country
    (I don't know why)

    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad
    I don't know why)

    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad
    I don't know why)

    Oh, he lives in a house, a very big house in the country
    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad)
    Watching afternoon repeats and the food he eats in the country
    (I don't know why)
    He takes all manner of pills and piles up analyst bills in the country
    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad)
    Oh, it's like an animal farm, that's the rural charm in the country
    (I don't know why)

    Oh, he lives in a house a very big house in the country
    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad)
    He's got a fog in his chest, so he needs a lot of rest in the country
    (I don't know why)
    He doesn't drink, smoke, laugh, takes herbal baths in the country
    (Blow, blow me out, I am so sad)
    But you'll come to no harm on the animal farm in the country
    (I don't know why)

  3. Best DaysVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Best Days

    Bow bells say goodbye to the last train
    Over the river they all go again
    Out into leafy nowhere
    Hope someone's waiting out there for them

    Cabbie has his mind on a fare to the sun
    He works nights but it's not much fun
    Picks up the London yo-yos
    All on their own down in SoHo
    Take me home

    Other people wouldn't like to hear you
    (Ooo-ooo-ooh) If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Other people'd turn around and laugh at you
    (Ooo-ooo-ooh) If you said that these are the best days of our lives

    I think

    Trellick Tower's been calling
    I know she'll leave me in the morning {dew}

    In hotel cells listening to dial tones
    Remote controls and cable moans
    In his drink he's talking
    Gets disconnected sleepwalking back home

    Other people wouldn't like to hear you
    (Ooo-ooo-ooh) If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Other people'd turn around and laugh at you
    (Ooo-ooo-ooh) If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Of our lives

    Other people wouldn't like to hear you
    (Ooo-ooo-ooh) If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Other people'd turn around and laugh at you
    (Ooo-ooo-ooh) If you said that these are the best days of our lives

    (I'm going home) Other people'd break into a cold sweat
    (Aaa-aaa-aah) If you said that these are the best days of their lives
    (I'm going home) And other people'd turn around and laugh at you
    (Aaa-aaa-aah) If you said that these are the best days of our lives
    Of our lives
    Of our lives

  4. Charmless ManVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Charmless Man

    I met him in a crowded room
    Where people go to drink away their gloom
    He sat me down and so began
    The story of a charmless man

    Educated the expensive way
    He knows his claret from his Beaujolais
    I think he'd like to have been Ronnie Kray
    But then nature didn't make him that way

    Na na nana na, na na
    Na na nana na, na na

    He thinks he's educated airs
    Those family shares
    Will protect him
    That we'll respect him

    He moves in circles of friends
    Who just pretend
    That they like him
    He does the same to them

    And when you put it all together
    There's the model of a charmless man

    Na na nana na, na na
    Na na nanana na na, na na

    He knows the swingers and their cavalry
    Says he can get in anywhere for free
    I began to go a little cross-eyed
    And from this charmless man I just had to hide

    Na na nana na, na na
    Na na nana na, na na

    He talks at speed, he gets nose bleeds
    He doesn't see
    His days are tumbling
    Down upon him

    And yet he tries so hard to please
    He's just so keen
    For you to listen
    But no one's listening

    And when you put it all together
    There's the model of a charmless man

    He thinks he's educated airs
    Those family shares
    Will protect him
    That you'll respect him

    And yet he tries so hard to please
    He's just so keen
    For you to listen
    But no one's listening

    And when you put it all together
    There's the model of a charmless man

    Na na nana na, na na
    Na na nana na, na na
    Na na nana na, na na
    Na na nana na, na na
    Na nana na, na na
    Na nana na, na na
    Na nana na, na na na

  5. Fade AwayVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Fade Away

    They stumbled into their lives
    In a vague way became man and wife
    One got the other
    They deserved one another

    They settled in a brand new town
    With people from the same background
    They kept themselves busy
    Long hours left them dizzy

    Now when
    He's in
    She's out

    All you ever do is fade away
    All you ever do is fade away
    He's not making plans
    'Cause now they understand
    All you ever do is fade away

    He noticed he had visible lines
    She worried about her behind
    Their birth had been the death of them
    It didn't really bother them

    Now when
    She's in
    He's out

    All you ever do is fade away
    All you ever do is fade away
    She's not making plans
    'Cause now she understands
    All you ever do is fade away

    When
    He's in
    She's out

    All you ever do is fade away
    All you ever do is fade away
    They're not making plans
    'Cause now they understand
    He must learn to forget
    Because this is all you'll ever get
    All you ever do is fade away

    All you ever do is fade away
    All you ever do is fade away
    They're not making plans
    'Cause now they understand
    All you ever do is fade away

  7. The UniversalVer letra

    [X]

    letra de The Universal

    This is the next century
    Where the Universal's free
    You can find it anywhere
    Yes, the future's been sold

    Every night we're gone
    And to karaoke songs
    How we like to sing along
    Though the words are wrong

    It really, really, really could happen
    Yes it really, really, really could happen
    When the days they seem to fall through you
    Well, just let them go

    No one here is alone
    Satellites in every home
    Yes, the Universal's here
    Here for everyone

    Every paper that you read
    Says tomorrow's your lucky day
    Well, here's your lucky day

    It really, really, really could happen
    Yes, it really, really, really could happen
    When the days they seem to fall through you
    Well, just let them go

    Well, it really, really, really could happen
    Yes, it really, really, really could happen
    When the days they seem to fall through you
    Well, just let them go

    Just let them go
    Just let them go

  9. He Thought Of CarsVer letra

    [X]

    letra de He Thought Of Cars

    Moscow's still red, the young man's dead
    Gone to heaven instead
    The evening news says he was confused

    The motorways will all merge soon
    Lottery winner buys the moon
    They've come to save us
    The space invaders are here

    He thought of cars
    And where, where to drive them
    And who to drive there with
    But there, there was no-one, no-one

    There's panic at London Heathrow
    Everybody wants to go up into the blue
    But there's a ten year queue

    Columbia is in top gear
    It shouldn't snow this time of year
    America's shot she's gone and done the lot

    He thought of planes
    And where, where to fly to
    And who to fly there with
    But there, there was no-one, no-one

    He thought of cars
    And where, where to drive them
    And who to drive there with
    But there, there was no-one, no-one

  10. It Could Be YouVer letra

    [X]

    letra de It Could Be You

    Churchill
    Got his lucky number
    Tomorrow there's another
    Could be me
    Could be you
    No silver spoon
    Sticky teeth, they rot too soon
    You've got to have the best tunes
    Or that's it
    You've blown it

    All we want is to be happy
    In our homes like happy families
    Be the man on the beach with the world at his feet
    Yes, it could be you

    The likely lads
    Are picking up the uglies
    Yesterday they were just puppies
    Beery slurs
    Now life's a blur
    Telly addicts
    You should see them at it
    Getting in a panic
    Will we be there
    Trafalgar Square?

    All we want is to be happy
    In our homes like happy families
    Be the man on the beach with the world at his feet
    Yes, it could be you
    Could be me
    Could be you
    Should be me
    Should be you

    But don't worry
    If it's not your lucky number
    'Cos tomorrow there's another
    Could be you
    Could be me

    [X]

    letra de Ernold Same

    Ernold same awoke from the same dream in the same bed at the same time
    Looked in the same mirror made the same frown
    And felt the same way as he did every day
    Then ernold same caught the same train at the same station
    Sat in the same seat with the same nasty stain next to same old what's his name
    On his way to the same place to do the same thing again and again and again
    Poor old ernold same

    Oh ernold same, his world stays the same
    Today will always be tomorrow
    Poor ernold same, he's getting that feeling once again
    Nothing will change tomorrow

  12. Globe AloneVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Globe Alone

    Who maddest one on the M1
    Who hasn't stopped sucking his thumb
    Who very straight and never grins
    Who cares what car he's driving in
    He is because he saw it on a commercial break
    And if he doesn't get what he wants
    Then he get a headache
    'Cos he needs it
    Wants it
    Almost
    Loves it

    He's here on his own
    On globe alone
    Here on his own
    Who joined health club to glisten
    Into hi-fi precision
    Who mobile phone gives him the bone
    Who very keen on Sharon Stone
    And then he says...

    Who eats at the new brasserie
    Who only ever gets merry
    Who wouldn't be seen at bedtime
    Without putting Calvin Klein's on

  13. Dan AbnormalVer letra

    [X]

    letra de Dan Abnormal

    Meanie Leanie come on down
    Come and entertain the town
    It's friday night and we're all bored
    Times being called there is no more
    Times being called it's such a bore

    Dan Abnormal not normal at all
    It's not his fault we made him this way
    He'll imitate you, try to ape you
    But it's not his fault Dan watches tv, tv, tv

    Meanie Leanie stays up late
    Mopes around gets in a state
    The killer in your arcade
    Shooting gangstas ready made
    Cause that is where the future's made

    Dan Abnormal not normal at all
    It's not his fault we made him this way
    He'll imitate you, try to ape you
    But it's not his fault Dan watches tv, tv, tv

    Dan went to his local burger bar
    I want McNormal and chips
    Or I'll blow you to bits
    Give us it

    It's the miseries at half past three
    Watching video nasties
    He has dirty dreams when he's asleep
    Dan's just like you and me
    He's the Meanie Leanie

    Dan Abnormal not normal at all
    It's not his fault we made him this way
    He'll imitate you, try to ape you
    But it's not his fault Dan watches tv, tv, tv
    Dan Abnormal not normal at all
    It's not his fault we made him this way
    He'll imitate you, try to ape you
    But it's not his fault Dan's as normal as me

    letra de Entertain Me

    The weekend is back
    But so is he
    Head to the floodlights
    See the fraternity
    They're waiting
    I hear them up in the north
    Down in the south
    And all that is spewing
    Spewing out of his mouth is

    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain me

    At his and hers dating
    Bored minds agree
    Requirements to be stated
    And replies awaited
    She wants a loose fit
    He wants Instant Whip
    Guesstimates her arrival
    Will she want it really badly?

    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain me

    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain me

    A car, a house, both in a street
    The boredom of a sober week
    The weekend's here, hip-hip-hooray
    To make the blues just go away

    Entertain me (a car, a house, both in a street)
    Entertain me (the boredom of a sober week)
    Entertain me (the weekend's here, hip-hip-hooray)
    Entertain me (to make the blues just go away)

    Entertain me (a car, a house, both in a street)
    Entertain me (the boredom of a sober week)
    Entertain me (the weekend's here, hip-hip-hooray)
    Entertain me (to make the blues just go away)

    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain me
    Entertain
