In Every Dream Home A Heartache

written by Bryan Ferry/Roxy Music (©Year )
In every dreamhome a heartache
And every step I take
Takes me further from heaven
(Oh) 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 bellpush 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 it's comforts
Seemed 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
To look so delightful
Inflatable doll
My role is to serve you
Disposable darling
Can't throw you away now
Immortal and lifesize
My breath is inside you
I dress you up daily
And keep you 'til death's eyes
Inflatable doll
Lover ungrateful
I blew up your body

But you blew my mind

Dream Home Heartache
Dream Home Heartache
Dream Home Heartache
Dream Home Heartache
Dream Home Heartache
Dream Home Heartache
