In Every Dream Home a Heartache

Jane Birkin


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 in 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
