In Shangrilá - The Ruttles

"In Shangrilá" es una canción del grupo The Ruttles. Este grupo es una parodia inglesa de The Beatles que ha grabado varios discos con canciones inspiradas en otras originales del grupo de Liverpool. Piggie in the midle, Cheese and onions son solo algunas de sus rolas. Personalmente, me parecen una interesante propuesta, incluso la primera vez que escuche esta canción me hicieron confundirme, puesto que la oí poco tiempo después de que saliera Free as a bird del Album Anthology. Para que se den una idea esta es la letra de In Shangrilá, del album Archeology:

Did you ever get the feeling
that the truth is less revealing
than a downright lie?
And did you think your head was hip
to certain things it's not equippedto qualify?
All day long the sky is blue

and everyone says "how do you do"in Shangri-La
Every day's a perfect day
and you can go your own sweet wayin Shangri-La
In Shangri-La...

In Shangri-La...
You can be whoever you are
In Shangri-La
Investment with a good return

provides the means through which we earn
our daily bread
Insisting on an equal cut
some people even bust a gut
to stay ahead
All day long the sky is blue

and no one has a lot to do
in Shangri-La
In Shangri-La...

In Shangri-La...
You can be whoever you are
In Shangri-La
It's a strange world we live in

but surely we're forgiven
if we don't know where to turn
With paradise for hire
on the back streets of desire
we all live and learn
All day long the sky is blue

and everyone's in love with you
in Shangri-La
Lovers dance and children sing
and everybody does their thing
in Shangri-La
In Shangri-La...

In Shangri-La...
You can be whoever you are
In Shangri-La-hah-hah-hah
In Shangri-La...
In Shangri-La...
You can be whoever you are
In Shangri-La
All together now...1... 2... 3...
Lah-dee-doo-dah

Lah-dee-dah
Here we are
in Shangri-La
