Re: ABBA

Me and I

Sometimes when I''m mad
There''s a part of me that seems to be a little sad
Sometimes when I scream
There''s a voice in me that says, 'You shouldn''t be so mean'
Oh no, oh no
Part of me is acting while the other stands beside
Yes, I am to myself what Jekyll must have been to Hyde

We''re like sun and rainy weather
Sometimes we''re a hit together
Me and I
Gloomy moods and inspiration
We''re a funny combination
Me and I
I don''t think I''m different or in any way unique
Think about yourself for a minute
And you''ll find the answer in it
Everyone''s a freak

Sometimes I have toyed
With ideas that I got from good old Dr. Freud
Nothing new of course
It may seem to you I try to break through open doors
Oh no, oh no
I just wanna say a lot of that applies to me
''Cause it''s an explanation to my split identity

We''re like sun and rainy weather
Sometimes we''re a hit together
Me and I
Gloomy moods and inspiration
We''re a funny combination
Me and I
I don''t think I''m different or in any way unique
Think about yourself for a minute
And you''ll find the answer in it
Everyone''s a freak

Merry-go-round

I have tried in vain never had success
So it seems my life is nothing but a mess
I have lost my only friend
Now it seems I have to start again

Merry-go-round
Where am I bound
With my love and feelings
Merry-go-round
Who wants to kiss me
And hug me and miss me
Yes, who wants to do it
I wish that I knew it
Merry-go-round
Wish I had found
Somebody to care for
Where am I bound
Life is so lonely
If life is just only
To love with my loving
Goes round and round

Looking for someone
Who would want to stay
I might find her
With a bit of luck one day
But who knows
So until then
I can only try and try again

Merry-go-round
Where am I bound
With my love and feelings
Merry-go-round
Who wants to kiss me
And hug me and miss me
Yes, who wants to do it
I wish that I knew it
Merry-go-round
Wish I had found
Somebody to care for
Where am I bound
Life is so lonely
If life is just only
To love with my loving
Goes round and round

Merry-go-round

Money, money, money

I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay
Ain''t it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left for me
That''s too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn''t have to work at all, I''d fool around and have a ball...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man''s world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man''s world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It''s a rich man''s world

A man like that is hard to find but I can''t get him off my mind
Ain''t it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn''t fancy me
That''s too bad
So I must leave, I''ll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the same...

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man''s world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man''s world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It''s a rich man''s world

Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man''s world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man''s world

Move on

They say a restless body can hide a peaceful soul.
A voyager, ad a settler, they both have a distant goal.
If I explore the heavens, or if I search inside.
Well, it really doesn''t matter as long as I can tell myself
I''ve always tried.'

Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that''s always blowing, life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning
Move on
How I treasure every minute
Being part of it, being in it
With the urge to move on

I''ve travelled every country, I''ve travelled in my mind
It seems we''re on a journey, a trip through space and time
And somewhere lies the answer
To all the questions why
What really makes the difference
Between all dead and living things, the will to stay alive

Like a roller in the ocean (la la la la la la-la)
Life is motion (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like a wind that''s always blowing (la la la la la la-la)
Life is flowing (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like the sunrise in the morning (la la la la la la-la)
Life is dawning (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
How I treasure every minute (la la la la)
Being part of it (la la la la)
Being in it (la la la la)
With the urge to move on

The morning breeze that ripples the surface of the sea
The crying of the seagulls that hover over me
I see it and I hear it
But how can I explain
The wonder of the moment
To be alive, to feel the sun that follows every rain

Like a roller in the ocean (la la la la la la-la)
Life is motion (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like a wind that''s always blowing (la la la la la la-la)
Life is flowing (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
Like the sunrise in the morning (la la la la la la-la)
Life is dawning (la la la la la la-la)
Move on (la la la la-la)
How I treasure every minute (la la la la)
Being part of it (la la la la-ah)
Being in it
With the urge to move on

La la la la la la-la, la la la la la la-la, la la la la-la
Like a wind that''s always blowing
La la la la la la-la
La la la la la la-la (life is flowing)
La la la la-la (move on)
Like the sunrise in the morning
La la la la la la-la
La la la la la la-la (life is dawning)
La la la la-la (move on)
How I treasure every minute (la la la la)
Being part of it (la la la la-ah)
Being in it
With the urge to move on
La la la la la la-la, la la la la la la-la, la la la la-la
Like a wind that''s always blowing...

My love, my life

I''ve seen it on your face
Tells me more than any worn-out old phrase
So now we''ll go separate ways
Never again we two
Never again, nothing I can do

Like an image passing by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
(See it all so clearly)
Answer me sincerely
(Answer me sincerely)
Was it a dream, a lie?
Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life
Are the words you try to find, my love, my life
But I know I don''t possess you
So go away, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
Still my one and only

I''ve watched you look away
Tell me is it really so hard to say?
Oh, this has been my longest day
Sitting here close to you
Knowing that maybe tonight we''re through

Like an image passing by, my love, my life
In the mirror of your eyes, my love, my life
I can see it all so clearly
(See it all so clearly)
Answer me sincerely
(Answer me sincerely)
Was it a dream, a lie?
Like reflections of your mind, my love, my life
Are the words you try to find, my love, my life
But I know I don''t possess you
So go away, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
Yes I know I don''t possess you
So go away, God bless you
You are still my love and my life
Still my one and only

My mama said

Tried to sneak out without saying
With my loudest record playing
Ooh, my mama said, 'Look at this, you haven''t done your bed'
My mama said, 'That''s a thing that you should do instead'

Yeah, I did what she had told me
Dying for my friend to hold me
Ooh, my mama said, 'Try and get one thing into your head'
My mama said, 'Pa and me, we give you room and bed'
How I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life

In the morning she said 'Listen'
Ooh, I felt like in a prison
Yeah, my mama said, 'I know you''ve been out again with Fred'
(My mama said)
My mama said, 'Don''t you lie, your cheeks are blushing red'
(My mama said)
Oh I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life

I said, 'I can live without him.
How I wish you wouldn''t doubt him.'
Oh oh, my mama said, 'If you want to hurt me go ahead'
(My mama said)
My mama said, 'I suppose you''d rather see me dead'
(My mama said)
Oh I wanna live my life
Wanna live my life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life (x4)

Nina, pretty ballerina

Every day in the morning on her way to the office
You can see as she catches a train
Just a face among a million faces
Just another woman with no name
Not the girl you''d remember but she''s still something special
If you knew her I am sure you''d agree
''Cause I know she''s got a little secret
Friday evening she turns out to be...

Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment she''s waited for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play
But she knows the fun would go away
If she would play it every day

So she''s back every morning to her work at the office
And another week to live in a dream
And another row of early mornings
In an almost never-ending stream
Doesn''t talk very often, kind of shy and uncertain
Everybody seems to think she''s a bore
But they wouldn''t know her little secret
What her Friday night would have in store...

Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment she''s waited for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play
She would like to play it every day

Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment she''s waited for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play

On And On And On

I was at a party and this fella said to me
'Something bad is happening, I''m sure you do agree
People care for nothing, no respect for human rights
Evil times are coming, we are in for darker nights'
I said, 'Who are you to talk about impending doom?'
He got kinda wary as he looked around the room
He said, 'I''m a minister, a big shot in the state'
I said, 'I just can''t believe it, boy I think it''s great
Brother can you tell me what is right and what is wrong?'
He said, 'Keep on rocking baby, ''til the night is gone'

On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
''Til the night is gone
On and on and on
''Til the night is gone
On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
''Til the night is gone
On and on and on
''Til the night is gone

Over in the corner I could see this other guy
He was kinda flirty, he was giving me the eye
So I took advantage of the fact that I''m a star
Shook my hair and took a casual stroll up to the bar
And as sure as hell this guy was coming up to me
He said, 'Who am I and who are you and who are we?
What''s our situation, do we have some time for us?'
I said I was not exactly waiting for the bus
He said, 'If you''re going somewhere can I come along?'
I said, 'Keep on rocking baby, ''til the night is gone'

On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
''Til the night is gone
On and on and on
''Til the night is gone
On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
''Til the night is gone
On and on and on
''Til the night is gone

[Extra Video Verse]
Standing up is scary if you think you''re gonna fall
Like a Humpty Dumpty, ''fraid of falling off the wall
I say if you ever want to know what''s going on
Gotta keep on rockin baby till the night is gone

One Man, One Woman

No smiles, not a single word at the breakfast table
Though I would have liked to begin
So much that I wanna say, but I feel unable
You leave and slam the door
Like you''ve done many times before
And I cry and I feel so helpless

One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow we''ll help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take that never comes back again
You and me, to the end

Outside I can see the sun through the open window
Inside everything feels so cold
What''s wrong, what is happening, where did all our love go?
Sometimes when I just can''t cope
I cling to a desperate hope
And I cry and I feel like dying

One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow we''ll help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take that never comes back again
You and me, to the end

Daydreams of a better life, but I have to wake up
The sound of the key in the door
You smile and I realise that we need a shake-up
Our love is a precious thing
Worth the pain and the suffering
And it''s never too late for changing

One man, one woman
Two friends and two true lovers
Somehow we''ll help each other through the hard times
One man, one woman
One life to live together
One chance to take that never comes back again
You and me, to the end
You and me, to the end

One Of Us

They passed me by, all of those great romances
You were, I felt, robbing me of my rightful chances
My picture clear, everything seemed so easy
And so I dealt you the blow
One of us had to go
Now it''s different, I want you to know

One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all

I saw myself as a concealed attraction
I felt you kept me away from the heat and the action
Just like a child, stubborn and misconceiving
That''s how I started the show
One of us had to go
Now I''ve changed and I want you to know
One of us is crying
One of us is lying
In her lonely bed
Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call
Sorry for herself, feeling stupid feeling small
Wishing she had never left at all
Never left at all

Staring at the ceiling
Wishing she was somewhere else instead
One of us is lonely
One of us is only
Waiting for a call

Our Last Summer

The summer air was soft and warm
The feeling right, the Paris night
Did it''s best to please us
And strolling down the Elysee
We had a drink in each cafe
And you
You talked of politics, philosophy and I
Smiled like Mona Lisa
We had our chance
It was a fine and true romance

I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain

We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass
By the Eiffel tower
I was so happy we had met
It was the age of no regret
Oh yes
Those crazy years, that was the time
Of the flower-power
But underneath we had a fear of flying
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
We took the chance
Like we were dancing our last dance

I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand

Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away
Our last summer
We could laugh and play

And now you''re working in a bank
The family man, the football fan
And your name is Harry
How dull it seems
Yet you''re the hero of my dreams

I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
We were living for the day, worries far away...

People Need Love

People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith and a helping hand

Man has always wanted a woman by his side to keep him company
Women always knew that it takes a man to get matrimonial harmony
Everybody knows that a man who''s feeling down wants some female sympathy
Gotta have love to carry on living
Gotta have love ''till eternity

People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand

La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la laa...

Flowers in a desert need a drop of rain like a woman needs her man
If a man''s in love and his woman wants the moon
Then he''ll take it down if he can
Somebody who loves you and somebody who cares
Isn''t that what you call a friend?
Gotta have love to carry on living
Isn''t it easy to understand

People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand

La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la laa...

People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand

La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la laa...
La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la la
La la la la, la la la la-la, la la la la la la la-la la laa...

Put On Your White Sombrero

Put on your white sombrero
Saddle your horse my dear
And ride off into the sunset
You''d better go
For there is no
Place for you here
Like an old fashoned hero
You stand before me
You think our life is a movie
My world is real
I live and feel
And I can do, without you

Put on your white sombrero
Your red bandana too
Think of this day as a showdown
Goodbye my friend
This is the end
For me and you
Now be a bold vaquero
Don''t show your feelings
I''ll cry while you''re disappearing
Into the night
All dressed in white
Unchained and free, without me

Put on your white sombrero
Like all the comboys do
Go find a sweet senorita
Somebody meek
Who''ll never speak
Harshly to you
You''re such a caballero
Proud, never bending
I want someone who will take me
Just as I am
I need a man
Who is in rhyme
With his time

You''ll never take me
Just as I am
I need a man
Who is in rhyme
With his time

Ring Ring

I was sitting by the phone
I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It''s a dark and dreary night
Seems like nothing''s going right
Won''t you tell me honey how can I go on here without you?

Yes I''m down and feeling blue
And I don''t know what to do, oh-oh

Ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won''t you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?

You were here and now you''re gone
Hey did I do something wrong?
I just can''t believe that I could be so badly mistaken
Was it me or was it you?
Tell me, are we really through?
Won''t you hear me cry and you will know that my heart is breaking

Please forgive and then forget
Or maybe darling better yet, oh-oh

Ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won''t you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?
Oh-oh, ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don''t you give me a call?

Rock 'n Roll Band

Sitting in the darkest corner

S. O. S.

Where are those happy days, they seem so hard to find
I tried to reach for you, but you have closed your mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understood
It used to be so nice, it used to be so good

So when you''re near me, darling can''t you hear me
S. O. S.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S.
When you''re gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you''re gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive, but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out
I wish I understood
What happened to our love, it used to be so good

So when you''re near me, darling can''t you hear me
S. O. S.
The love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S.
When you''re gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you''re gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

So when you''re near me, darling can''t you hear me
S. O. S.
And the love you gave me, nothing else can save me
S. O. S.
When you''re gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you''re gone
Though I try how can I carry on?
When you''re gone
How can I even try to go on?
When you''re gone
Though I try how can I carry on?

Santa Rosa

I''d give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
How I wish this road would take me home where I belong
''Cause I have found no other place where I will stay
I''m tired and all my dreams have failed along the way

I''d give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
Though I wonder what my folks would think about me now
I guess I''ve changed, like people do, when things go wrong
But in the end, somehow I know, we''ll get along

Santa Rosa I''ll be back to stay
I''m on my way
Santa Rosa I''ll be back to stay

I''d give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
How I wish to see the old house where I used to live
And all my friends, will they be there, when I come home
How I regret the day when I set out to roam

Santa Rosa I''ll be back to stay
I''m on my way
Santa Rosa I''ll be back to stay
I''d give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
I''d give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa
I''d give anything to be back home in Santa Rosa

She's My Kind Of Girl

Look at her face, it''s a wonderful face
And it means something special to me
Look at the way that she smiles when she sees me
How lucky can one fellow be?

She''s just my kind of girl, she makes me feel fine
Who could ever believe that she could be mine?
She''s just my kind of girl, without her I''m blue
And if she ever leaves me what could I do, what could I do?

And when we go for a walk in the park
And she holds me and squeezes my hand
We''ll go on walking for hours and talking
About all the things that we plan

She''s just my kind of girl, she makes me feel fine
Who could ever believe that she could be mine?
She''s just my kind of girl, without her I''m blue
And if she ever leaves me what could I do, what could I do?

Should I Laugh Or Cry

He stands towering over me beside my bed
Losing his head
Tells me I must take him seriously
Droning on the usual way
He''s such a clever guy
And I wonder should I laugh or cry

He''s (he''s) dressed (dressed) in the striped pajamas that I bought
Trousers too short
Gives (gives) me (me) of his small philosophy
Carries on the way he does
And me I get so tired
And I wonder should I laugh or cry
High and mighty his banner flies
A fool''s pride in his eyes
Standin'' there on his toes to grow in size
(All I see is)
All I see is a big balloon
Halfway up to the moon
He''s wrapped up in the warm and safe cocoon
Of an eternal lie
So should I laugh or cry

Strange (strange) how (how) dangerously indifferent I have grown
Cold as a stone
No (no) more (more) pain where there was pain before
Far away he rambles on, I feel my throat go dry
And I wonder should I laugh or cry

High and mighty his banner flies
A fool''s pride in his eyes
Standin'' there on his toes to grow in size
(All I see is)
All I see is a big balloon
Halfway up to the moon
He''s wrapped up in a warm and safe cocoon
Of an eternal lie
So should I laugh or cry

Sitting In The Palmtree

See me sitting in the palmtree
Looking down at people passing by
Sitting here no-one can harm me
They just stare at me and wonder why
No need to bother, I''m gonna stay up here
Whatever happens, I won''t let no-one near
Until you tell me, Jeanie Jeanie on my mind, won''t you please
You really love me, Jeanie Jeanie you''re so fine, yes you are now
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
I''ll be the bluest of men in this town
''Cause I love you, Jeanie Jeanie on my mind

See me sitting in the palmtree
Waiting for those little words from you
People laugh and point their fingers
Like I was a monkey at the zoo
But I will stay here, among my coconuts
So you will know dear, you''re everything I''ve got
Now won''t you tell me, Jeanie Jeanie on my mind

Winds blow, stars glow, I see a light in a window
Dark trees, soft breeze, carry my message to her please

See me sitting in the palmtree
Feeling angry at the silly crowd
No-one else but you can calm me
You should know by now I''m far too proud
I need to show you, I''ve got my feelings too
You shouldn''t treat me like you always do
So won''t you tell me, Jeanie Jeanie on my mind, won''t you please
You really love me, Jeanie Jeanie you''re so fine, yes you are now
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
I''ll be the bluest of men in this town
''Cause I love you, Jeanie Jeanie on my mind
Jeanie Jeanie you''re so fine
Jeanie Jeanie on my mind
Jeanie Jeanie you''re so fine
Jeanie Jeanie on my mind
Jeanie Jeanie you''re so fine

Summer Night City

In the night a new day dawning
And the first birds start to sing
In the pale light of the morning
Nothing''s worth remembering
It''s a dream, it''s out of reach
Scattered driftwood on the beach

Summer night city...
Summer night city...

Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city

In the sun I feel like sleeping
I can''t take it for too long
My impatience slowly creeping
Up my spine and growing strong
I know what''s waiting there for me
Tonight I''m loose and fancy-free
Aa-ahhh

When the night comes with the action
I just know it''s time to go
Can''t resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
Lots to take and lots to give
Time to breathe and time to live

Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city

It''s elusive call it glitter
Somehow something turns me on
Some folks only see the litter
We don''t miss them when they''re gone
I love the feeling in the air
My kind of people everywhere

When the night comes with the action
I just know it''s time to go
Can''t resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
And tomorrow, when the dawning
And the first birds start to sing
In the pale light of the morning
Nothing''s worth remembering
It''s a dream, it''s out of reach
Scattered driftwood on the beach

Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
Summer night city

Super Trouper

Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won''t feel blue
Like I always do
''Cause somewhere in the crowd there''s you

I was sick and tired of everything
When I called you last night from Glasgow
All I do is eat and sleep and sing
Wishing every show was the last show
(Wishing every show was the last show)
So imagine I was glad to hear you''re coming
(Glad to hear you''re coming)
Suddenly I feel all right
(And suddenly it''s gonna be)
And it''s gonna be so different
When I''m on the stage tonight

Tonight the
Super Trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won''t feel blue
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Like I always do
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
''Cause somewhere in the crowd there''s you

Facing twenty thousand of your friends
How can anyone be so lonely
Part of a success that never ends
Still I''m thinking about you only
(Still I''m thinking about you only)
There are moments when I think I''m going crazy
(Think I''m going crazy)
But it''s gonna be alright
(You''ll soon be changing everything)
Everything will be so different
When I''m on the stage tonight

Tonight the
Super Trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won''t feel blue
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Like I always do
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
''Cause somewhere in the crowd there''s you

So I''ll be there when you arrive
The sight of you will prove to me I''m still alive
And when you take me in your arms
And hold me tight
I know it''s gonna mean so much tonight

Tonight the
Super Trouper lights are gonna find me
Shining like the sun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Smiling, having fun
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Feeling like a number one
Tonight the
Super Trouper beams are gonna blind me
But I won''t feel blue
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
Like I always do
(Sup-p-per Troup-p-per)
''Cause somewhere in the crowd there''s you

Suzy Hang-A-Round

Suzy was nine and I was ten
Right at the time when boys like to think they''re men
She used to follow us at school
We really thought that she was a little fool
And one day we said to her
We don''t want to hurt you girl
But you''d better

Look for a friend of your own, Suzy-hang-around
Better come back when you''re grown, Suzy-hang-around
Nobody wants you around here and that''s for sure
So get off our playground and stay away
That''s all that we''ve got to say
Suzy-hang-around

Suzy went home to Mama''s arms
Mama said 'Look, she''s never done you no harm
So get off her back and let her be
Why can''t you play together in harmony?'
We really didn''t know what to say
But as soon as she went away
We laughed and said

Look for a friend of your own, Suzy-hang-around
Better come back when you''re grown, Suzy-hang-around
Nobody wants you around here and that''s for sure
So get off our playground and stay away
That''s all that we''ve got to say
Suzy-hang-around

Yes you''d better
Look for a friend of your own, Suzy-hang-around
Better come back when you''re grown, Suzy-hang-around
Nobody wants you around here and that''s for sure
So get off our playground and stay away
That''s all that we''ve got to say
Suzy-hang-around
