Bryan Ferry
In Every Dream Home A Heartache
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 a 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, deluxe 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
