De qué habla
Retrato de una londinense corriente, la señora Thompson, que sufre trenes impuntuales, un metro caótico y un jefe que le exige horas extra. Su semana está llena de compromisos, del curso de alemán al yoga y la asociación de padres, y el domingo se queda sola soñando con el sol y el mar. El estribillo la presenta, con ironía y cariño, como una heroína.
Letra
The train is never in on time, the tube is always crazy
To get to work, you've half a mile to run
The boss believes in overtime, he thinks you're bein' lazy
But nine to five's enough for anyone
Leavin' London, goin' home
Dreamin' sun and sea and all family
The world is callin' out for you
Oh... can't you hear them, Mrs. Thompson?
The world is lookin' up to you
Oh... you're a hero, Mrs. Thompson
Yes, you are
Monday is her German night, Tuesday she does yoga
And Wednesday after school's the P.T.A.
Thursday dine by candelight, Friday she's hung-over
The weekend shopping's done on Saturday
Sunday she unwinds at home
Dreaming through the night alone, nine a.m.
The world is callin' out for you
Oh... can't you hear them, Mrs. Thompson?
The world is lookin' up to you
Oh... you're a hero, Mrs. Thompson
(Yes, you are)
Why are you drunk? – Things to do
The one and only Mrs. Thompson
The world is watchin' all you do
Oh... this is your time, Mrs. Thompson
Here we go
The world is callin' out for you
Oh... can't you hear them, Mrs. Thompson?
The world is lookin' up to you
Oh... you're a hero, Mrs. Thompson
(Yes, you are)
A lonely spot inside of you
You're in the spotlight, Mrs. Thompson
The world is watchin' all you do
Oh... this is your time, Mrs. Thompson
Here we go
The world is callin' out for you
Oh... can't you hear them, Mrs. Thompson?
The world is lookin' up to you
Oh... you're a hero, Mrs. Thompson
(Yes, you are)
Why are you drunk? – Things to do
