JUEVES - LYRICS ("Somebody to love - Queen")

- Somebody to love - Queen

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Each morning I get up I die a little.
Can barely stand on my feet.
(Take a look at yourself)
Take a look in the mirror and cry.
Lord, what you're doing to me!

I have spent all my years in believing you,
but I just can't get no relief, Lord!
Somebody (somebody), somebody (somebody),
can anybody find me somebody to love?

I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life,
I work 'til I ache my bones.
At the end (at the end of the day) I take home
(takes home) my hard-earned pay all
(goes home on his own) on my own.

I go down (down) on my knees (knees),
And I start to pray (praise the Lord)
'til the tears run down from my eyes.
Lord, somebody (somebody), somebody (please),
can anybody find me somebody to love?

(He works hard) everyday (everyday)
I try, and I try, and I try.

But everybody wants to put me down.
They say I'm goin' crazy.
They say I got a lot of water in my brain.
I got no common sense (he's got).
I got nobody left to believe in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, Lord
Somebody (somebody), somebody (somebody),
can anybody find me somebody to love?
(Can anybody find me someone to love)

Got no feel, I got no rhythm.
I just keep losing my beat (you just keep losing and losing).
I'm OK, I'm alright (he's alright, he's alright).
I ain't gonna face no defeat.
I just gotta get out of this prison cell.
One day (someday) I'm gonna be free, Lord!

(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love, love, love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
(Somebody, somebody, somebody, somebody)
(Somebody find me, somebody find me somebody to love)

Can anybody find me somebody to love?

(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
Find me, somebody, somebody
(Find me somebody to love)
Somebody, somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
Ooh, somebody to love
(Find me somebody to love)
(Find me somebody to love)
Anybody, anywhere, anybody, find me somebody to love
Find me, find me, find me, yeah

- Notas: Esta canción la compuso Freddy Mercury y según parece siempre fue una de sus favoritas. El tema central de la composición es un hombre preguntándole a Dios porque pese a lo mucho que se esfuerza no logra encontrar a alguien a quien amar. En la segunda parte de la canción, se niega a aceptar la derrota (“I ain't gonna face no defeat.”).
Según algunas interpretaciones Freddy compuso la canción con un sentido autobiográfico y el tema central sería su homosexualidad oculta y el sufrimiento que esto le causaba. Por aquel entonces se consideraba una enfermedad (“They say I got a lot of water in my brain”) y por ello no podía encontrar a alguien de su mismo sexo a quien amar porque no sería socialmente aceptado.
- 1. “…got a lot of water in my brain…” = Hace referencia a la hidrocefalia, que consiste en un aumento anormal de la cantidad de líquido en las cavidades del cerebro, lo que suele conducir a demencia. El cantante usa esta enfermedad como metáfora para hablar de estar volviéndose loco.
- 2. “…losing my beat…” = El “beat” es el ritmo de una composición musical. El protagonista de la canción es cantante y le cuesta mantener la concentración en su música a causa del sufrimiento que padece.
