I wish I was someone else

I'm confused, I'm afraid, I hate the loneliness

And there's nowhere to run to

Nothing makes any sense, but I still try my hardest

Take my hand

Please help me man

'Cause I'm looking for something to believe in

And I don't know where to start

And I don't know where to begin, to begin

If I was stupid or naive

Trying to achieve what they all call contentness

If people weren't such dicks and I never made mistakes

Then I could find forgiveness

Take my hand

Please help me man

'Cause I'm looking for something to believe in

And I don't know where to start

And I don't know where to begin, oh no

I can't be someone else

I don't feel that it's hopeless

I don't feel that I'm useless

I can't throw it all away

I need some courage to find my weakness

And with your love, I know with all my heart I can win

'Cause I'm looking for something to believe in

And I just need something to believe in

I'm looking for something to believe in

And I just need something to believe in

Pues ya estamos en el mes de diciembre, ya queda muy poco para que termine el año, la década y para que llegue la Navidad. Hace un mes y algo puse una canción de The Long Blondes, donde se decía que la Navidad había sido cancelada, lamentablemente no es así y otro año más hemos de padecer esta fiesta. En fin como manda la tradición voy a poner algunas canciones dedicadas a la Navidad, posiblemente esta y alguna más o tal vez ninguna.

Creo que es más importante, aprovechando que termina la década, hacer una reflexión de como ha ido esta década a nivel musical. Llevamos cinco décadas en las que el rock and roll ha estado vivo y ha evolucionado y a veces involucionado. Pero esta década, que no pasará a la historia en términos generales ha tenido sus grandes momentos y ciertas peculiaridades.

Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with...

Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight

Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight

Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight with you

Where is Santa at his sleigh?

Tell me why is it always this way?

Where is Rudolph? Where is Blitzen, baby?

Merry Christmas, merry merry merry Christmas

All the children are tucked in their beds

Sugar-plum fairies dancing in their heads

Snowball fighting, it's so exciting baby

I love you and you love me

And that's the way it's got to be

I loved you from the start

'Cause Christmas ain't the time for breaking each other's heart

Canción: I wont´n let it happen
Disco: Mondo Bizarro (1992)
Discográfica: Radioactive
Estilo: Punk Rock

Got my socks baby said are new
The things she said, well, maybe they're true

But it's not gonna happen
I won't let it happen
Not again

Easy come, easy go, easily
But that's not how I want it to be

It's not gonna happen
I won't let it happen
Not again

Sitting all alone by the telephone
When are you coming home
Hey!

Easy come, easy go, easily
But that's not how I want it to be

And it's not gonna happen
I won't let it happen
Not again
