This is the Life

Pocos discos quedarán en mi memoria forever (un buen ejemplo es Viva Hate de Morrissey en el ´88 ponele), en cambio muchísimas canciones son y serán inolvidables.

Esta cancioncita a los diecisiete, me cambió la vida.
Los vi en directo una vez en el ´93, un power impresionante. En fin, escucha lo que dice esto:
 

In another life

You might have been a genius
In another life
You might have been a star
In another life
Your face might have been perfect
In another life
You’d drive a better car

In another life
All your jokes are funny
In another life
Your heart is free from fear
In another life
You make a lot of money
In this other life
Everything is clear

In another life
You’re always the hero
In another life
You always win the game
In another life
No one ever cheats you
In another life
You never have to change

In another life
Your friends never desert you
In another life
You never have to cry
In another life
No one ever hurts you
In this other life
Your loved-ones never die

But this is the life you have
This is the life you have
This is the life you have
This is the life

In another life
You’re always the victim
In another life
You’re always the thief
In another life
You are always lonely
In this other life
There is no relief

In your real life Treat it like it’s special In your real life Try to be more kind In your real life Think of those that love you In this real life Try to be less blind


This is the life you have!
