Cientos de discos en mi habitación,
sin basura en mi colección
Bmx Bandits, Television Personalities
Los primeros Jesus & Mary Chain,
los Primal Scream de Velocity Girl
y Teenage Fanclub, The Pastels, Lush y Heavenly
Algo de punk y mucho fuzz,
en Indietracks y Wales Goes Pop
planea la reverb en siete pulgadas de color
TAN SÓLO QUIERO DIVERSIÓN
C86 E INDIEPOP
Fanzines, flexis y cassettes,
como los del New Musical Express
Sarah, Creation, Rough Trade y mucho do-it-yourself
Ya he terminado mi playlist,
muchas canciones me recuerdan a ti
Belle and Sebastian, The Shop Assistants o los Smiths

It’s a good day today, I wake up in the morning
what a lovely day! because you’re by my side
There’s so much to do today, this is just a special day
It’s a good day today, let’s have a cup of coffee
what a lovely day! I love it when you smile
There’s so much to do today, this is just a special day
I don’t care what people say, let’s go out to dance today
Parapapaaaa... parapapapaaa...
Parapapaaaa... parapapapaaa...
There’s so much to do today, this is just a special day
It’s a good day today, driving with no destination
what a lovely day! no matter where we go
it’s a beautiful day, I love it every time you smile
what a lovely day! because you’re by my side
It’s a good day today, driving with no destination
what a lovely day! no matter where we go
it’s a beautiful day, I love it every time you smile
what a lovely day! because you’re by my side
It’s a good day today, driving with no destination
what a lovely day!

(Why?) THERE ARE NO PLACES TO GO
WHERE TO MOVE YOUR BODY
(Why?) THE GOOD OLD TIMES ARE GONE
WE NEED A DANCE PARTY
Dance with me, it’s easy, can’t you see?
lose control, it’s time to change the world
Now we feel people stand still
We are here to make you move your feet
Just somewhere where there are no djs
Take a break and come with us today
why should we go out for a drink
if there is no music worth to hear

And if one day I should become
a singer with a Spanish bum
who sings for women of great virtue
I'd sing to them with a guitar I'd borrowed from a coffee bar
well, what you don't know doesn't hurt you!
My name would be Antonio and all my bridges I would burn
and when I gave them some they'd know
I'd expect something in return
I'd have to get drunk every night and talk about virility
with some old grandmama who might be
decked out like a Christmas tree
And though pink elephants I'd see,
though I'd be drunk as I could be
Still I would sing my song to me
about the time they called me Jackie
IF I COULD BE FOR ONLY AN HOUR
IF I COULD BE FOR AN HOUR EVERY DAY
IF I COULD BE FOR JUST ONE LITTLE HOUR
A CUTE CUTE IN A STUPID-ASSED WAY
And if I joined the social world,
became procurer of young girls
then I would have my own bordellos
My record would be number one
and I'd sell records by the ton
all sung by many other fellows
My name would then be Handsome Jack and
I'd sell boats of opium, whisky that came from Twickenham,
authentic queers and phoney virgins
If I had banks on every finger, a finger in every country
and all the countries ruled by me
I'd still know where I'd want to be
Locked up inside my opium den surrounded by some Chinamen
I'd sing the song that I sang then
about the time they called me Jackie
Now tell me wouldn't it be nice
that if one day in Paradise
I'd sing for all the ladies up there
And they would sing along with me,
we'd be so happy, that'd be
'Cos down below is really nowhere
And if my name were Juniper
and I would know where I was going
and I would become all-knowing,
my beard so very long and flowing
If I became deaf, dumb and blind
because I pitied all mankind
and broke my heart to make things right,
I'd know that every single night
When my angelic work was through
the angels and the Devil too
would sing my childhood song to me
about the time they called me Jackie

Ya no sueñas con ganar

Descender muy despacio sin darte cuenta que
todo se vuelve raro, no eres consciente
has cambiado... ya no sueñas con ganar
El placer inmediato ahora es lo principal
ya no hay paciencia, es la comodidad
has cambiado... ya no sueñas con ganar
QUIERES TODO YA, NO VAS A ESPERAR
YA NO SUEÑAS CON GANAR
Descender al infierno, no regresarás
si te das por vencido no existe auxilio
has cambiado... ya no sueñas con ganar
QUIERES TODO YA, NO VAS A ESPERAR
YA NO SUEÑAS CON GANAR
SE ACERCA EL FINAL, TODO TE DA IGUAL
SÓLO QUIERES DISFRUTAR,
YA NUNCA VAS A CAMBIAR,
YA NO SUEÑAS CON GANAR
