Текст песни:

Well, you hoot and you holler and you make me mad
And I’ve always been under your heel
Holy christ what a lousy deal
Now I’m sick and tired of your tedious ways
And I ain’t gonna take it no more
Oh no no - walkin’ out that door

Burning my bridges, cutting my tie
Once again I wanna look into the eye
Being myself
Counting my pride
No un-right neighbour’s gonna take me for a ride
Burning my bridges
Moving at last
Girl I’m leaving and I’m burying the past
Gonna have peace now
You can be free
No one here will make a sucker out of me

Текст песни:

I have a very good friend

The kind of girl who likes to follow a trend
She has a personal style
Some people like it, others tend to go wild
You hear her voice everywhere
Taking the chair
She’s a leading lady
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going

Head over heels
Breaking her way
Pushing through unknown jungles every day
She’s a girl with a taste for the world
(the world is like a playing-ground where she goes rushing)
Head over heels
Setting the pace
Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace
She’s extreme, if you know what I mean

Her man is one I admire
He’s so courageous but he’s constantly tired
Each time when he speaks his mind
She pats his head and says, "that’s all very fine
Exert that will of your own
When you’re alone
Now we’d better hurry"
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going

Head over heels
Breaking her way
Pushing through unknown jungles every day
She’s a girl with a taste for the world
(the world is like a playing-ground where she goes rushing)
Head over heels
Setting the pace
Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace
She’s extreme, if you know what I mean

You hear her voice everywhere
Taking the chair
She’s a leading lady
And with no trace of hesitation she keeps going

Head over heels
Breaking her way
Pushing through unknown jungles every day
She’s a girl with a taste for the world
(the world is like a playing-ground where she goes rushing)
Head over heels
Setting the pace
Running the gauntlet in a whirl of lace
She’s extreme, if you know what I mean
(she’s just one of those who always has to do whatever she please)
And she goes
Head over heels

Текст песни:

I′ve always hated my room, it′s so gloomy and dreary
Always the dark, for the windows just face the back yard
So I can′t understand how it′s happened, how everything′s changing
This old dirty ceiling seems a little whiter
When you walked into the room it all got so much brighter
You must have a lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
And I can feel your love everywhere
Maybe even when you′re not there
The lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You′re shining like a star in the night
I won′t let you out of my sight
I don′t want to lose you, I don′t want to lose your lovelight
How I remember the first time we went to the movies
We had decided to meet on the corner downtown
And I waited there when you came up from behind and you kissed me
And the traffic seemed to get a little lighter
When you came into my life it all got so much brighter
You must have a lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
And I can feel your love everywhere
Maybe even when you′re not there
The lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You′re shining like a star in the night
I won′t let you out of my sight
I don′t want to lose you, I don′t want to lose your lovelight
And I feel so good
And I feel so right
And I know that you must have a lovelight
You′ve got lovelight
And I can feel your love everywhere
Maybe even when you′re not there
You′ve got lovelight
Everything around you is lovelight
You′re shining like a star in the night
I won′t let you out of my sight
I don′t want to lose you, I don′t want to lose your lovelight
Everything about you is right
Let it glow and let it be bright
I don′t want to lose your lovelight
Shining like a star in the night

Текст песни:

A bailar, a girar
sabes reГr y gritar
Miren bien, allГ va
Como una reina ya

Viernes noche y adГіnde ir
todo listo para salir
luces por todas partes
busquen un lugar
mГєsica y a bailar

Uno y todos a disfrutar
hay un ritmo sensacional
con un rock muy violento
largas a bailar
nadie te va a parar

y en la multitud
brillas con plenitud
Reina al fin, toda juventud
tu inquietud
Reina al fin, toda juventud

A bailar, a girar
sabes reГr y gritar
Miren bien, allГ va
Como una reina ya

Y aungue sabes coquetear
le interesa sГіlo bailar
con quien ya no te importa
sola te darГЎ igual
nadie te va a parar

Uno y todos a disfrutar
hay un ritmo sensacional
con un rock muy violento
largas a bailar
nadie te va a parar

y en la multitud
brillas con plenitud
Reina al fin, toda juventud
tu inquietud
Reina al fin, toda juventud

A bailar, a girar
sabes reГr y gritar
Miren bien, allГ va
Como una reina ya

Текст песни:

The Winner Takes It All

I don′t wanna talk
About the things we′ve gone through
Though it′s hurting me
Now it′s history
I′ve played all my cards
And that′s what you′ve done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play
The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That′s her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I′d be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It′s simple and it′s plain
Why should I complain.

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you?
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name?
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don′t wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You′ve come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence
But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it all...

Текст песни:

(B. Andersson/B. Ulvaeus) 1982
Down in the street they′re all singing and shouting
Staying alive though the city is dead
Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter
while you are crying alone on your bed
Pity, Cassandra that no one believed you
But then again you were lost from the start
Now we must suffer and sell our secrets
Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood
now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted but none of us would
listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
nobody knew how to fight
and we were caught in our sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn′t believe you really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour
So in the morning your ship will be sailing
Now that your father and sister are gone
there is no reason for you linger
You′re grieving deeply but still moving on
You know the future is casting a shadow
No one else sees it, but you know your fate
Packing your bags, being slow and thorough
Knowing though you′re late that ship is sure to wait
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood
now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted but none of us would
listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in out sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn′t believe you really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour
I watched her ship leaving harbor at sunrise
sails almost slack in the cool morning rain
She stood on deck, just a tiny figure
Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood
now the last day is dawning
Some of us wanted but none of us would
listen to words of warning
But on the darkest of nights
Nobody knew how to fight
And we were caught in out sleep
Sorry Cassandra I didn′t believe you really had the power
I only saw it as dreams you would weave
Until the final hour
(I′m sorry Cassandra)

Текст песни:

I′m waitin′ for you baby
I′m sitting all alone
I feel so cold without you
It chills me to the bone
I never thought you′d leave me
But now I know it′s true
Oh Lord I′m blue
I′m cryin′ over you
I′m waitin′ for you baby
I′m sittin′ all alone
I feel so cold without you
It chills me to the bone
I never thought you′d leave me
But now I know it′s true
Oh Lord I′m blue
I′m cryin′ over you

Cryin′ over you
I′m cryin′ over you
Cryin′ over
Little memories of things we used to do
Oh Lord I′m blue
I′m cryin′ over you
Oh Lord I′m blue
I′m cryin′ over you
Oh Lord I′m blue
I′m cryin′ over you

Текст песни:

So at last you’re free
It’s the way you wanted it to be
And the price you pay
To become a woman of today
Is it worth the pain to see the children cry
Does it hurt when they ask for daddy

Hey hey helen
Now you live on your own
Hey hey helen
Can you make it alone
(yes you can)

So you’re free at last
And beginning to forget the past
Does it make you sad
When you think about the life you ha-ha-had
But you’re right, you had to take a second chance
So you fight to find your freedom

Hey hey helen
Now you live on your own
Hey hey helen
Can you make it alone
Hey hey helen (hey hey helen)
What’s the matter with you
Hey hey helen (hey hey helen)
Don’t you know what to do
(yes you do)
(ahah, yes you do yes you do)
(ahah, yes you do yes you do)

Hey hey helen
Now you live on your own
Hey hey helen
Can you make it alone
Hey hey helen (hey hey helen)
What’s the matter with you
Hey hey helen (hey hey helen)
Don’t you know what to do
Hey hey helen (hey hey helen)
Now you live on your own
Hey hey helen (hey hey helen)

Текст песни:

Long awaited darkness falls
Casting shadows on the walls
In the twilight hour I am alone
Sitting near the fireplace, dying embers warm my face
In this peaceful solitude
All the outside world subdued
Everything comes back to me again
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room
Half awake and half in dreams
Seeing long forgotten scenes
So the present runs into the past
Now and then become entwined, playing games within my mind
Like the embers as they die
Love was one prolonged good-bye
And it all comes back to me tonight
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room
I close my eyes
And my twilight images go by
All too soon
Like an angel passing through my room

Текст песни:

Sitting in the darkest corner
In the tender light I saw her face
She was looking so sad and lonely
Someone help me, someone save me
I could see the look she gave me, oh
Oh yeah, and there was one thing only
That I knew I could do

Let′s go girl
It′s a beautiful place this world
Come on baby let′s dance
To the rock′n′roll band
Let′s go now
Let me show you that I know how
Come on baby let′s dance
To the rock′n roll band
Come on baby let′s dance
To the rock′n roll band
You′ve been sitting there for hours
Try to hide behind the flowers now
Baby, we could have fun together
Come on, cheer up, let′s get started
No use being broken-hearted now
Oh yeah, you′re gonna feel much better
Yes I know that you will

Let′s go girl
It′s a beautiful place this world
Come on baby let′s dance
To the rock′n roll band
Let′s go now
Let me show you that I know how
Come on baby let′s dance
To the rock′n roll band
Come on baby let′s dance
To the rock′n roll band

Текст песни:

Come to my loveland, wander along
Beautiful gardens full of flowers and songs
Come to the sunshine, beaches and sand
Here′s the two bluebirds, won′t you come to my land

The grass is mellow and the sky is blue
My paradise is waiting here for you

Oooh, it′s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
Life can be funny
Happy and sunny
Oooh, in my tropical loveland

Come to my loveland, wander with me
Lie with me darling in the shade of a tree
Over the rainbow, under the moon
That′s where my land is, won′t you come to me soon?

Just take my hand, I′ll show you everything
The secrets that my paradise can bring

Oooh, it′s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
Life can be funny
Happy and sunny
Oooh, in my tropical loveland

Oooh, it′s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
(I wanna share it with you)
Oooh, it′s a tropical loveland
(It′s a tropical loveland)
Oooh, I wanna share it with you
Oooh, it′s a tropical loveland
Oooh, I wanna share it with you

Текст песни:

I was out for the morning sun
Couldn’t sleep so I thought I’d take a walk
I was thinking of you and me
And I went to your house ’cos I had to talk
I could hardly believe my eyes
When I saw this guy closing your front door
Had a feeling of emptiness
Like I’ve never had before

And I close my eyes
Will you leave me, girl?
And I realise
It’s a crazy world

As he disappeared in his car
I was stunned and I didn’t know what to do
Everything I had ever been
Everything in my life’s a part of you
And I just couldn’t move my feet
So I stood on the pavement as you came out
You acted as you didn’t know
What it was all about

And I close my eyes
Will you leave me, girl?
And I realise
It’s a crazy world

Baby how could you do it
You just told me lies
Had you been behind my back with other guys?
Baby how could you tell me
There was only me
I was stupid to believe you
I was blind but now I see

Then you smiled and you took my hand
’there is something,’ you said, ’that you may not know,
There’s a couple of men in my life,
And one of them is my brother joe.
He’s been gone for a long long time
But he’s back and I think he’s gonna stay,
You’ll be seeing a lot of him
He’s so nice in every way.’

And I close my eyes
Never leave me, girl
And I realise
It’s a crazy world
So I close my eyes
Never leave me, girl
Then I realise
It’s a crazy world

Текст песни:

You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Friday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to go
Where they play the right music, getting in the swing
You come in to look for a King
Anybody could be that guy
Night is young and the music′s high
With a bit of rock music, everything is fine
You′re in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

You′re a teaser, you turn ′em on
Leave them burning and then you′re gone
Looking out for another, anyone will do
You′re in the mood for a dance
And when you get the chance...

You are the Dancing Queen, young and sweet, only seventeen
Dancing Queen, feel the beat from the tambourine
You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life
See that girl, watch that scene, dig in the Dancing Queen

Текст песни:

I was a fighter always looking for trouble
And my life was so empty, there was nothing left to live for
But then it happened one night as I got into a fight
I could hear someone saying as though he was praying
Ah-a-ah-a-a-a-ah-ah

Treat him well, he is your brother
You might need his help some day
We depend on one another
Love him, that’s the only way
On the road (on the road) that we’re going
We all need (we all need) words of comfort and compassion
Treat him well, he is your brother
Love him, that’s the only way

I was a woman never thinking of others
And my life was so lonely, didn’t care for anybody
But then I happened to meet a begging man in the street
As I turned down his praying I heard someone saying
Ah-a-ah-a-a-a-ah-ah

Treat him well, he is your brother (brother)
You might need his help one day (he’s your brother)
We depend on one another (brother)
Love him, that’s the only way
On the road (on the road) that we’re going (that we’re going)
We all need (we all need) words of comfort and compassion
Treat him well, he is your brother (brother)
Love him, that’s the only way.

Treat him well, he is your brother (brother)
You might need his help one day (he’s your brother)
We depend on one another (brother)
Love him, that’s the only way

Текст песни:

Did you see that man in the limousine
With a pretty blond, he is fifty and the girl’s only seventeen
But she doesn’t care, and she never will
If he’s ninety-five she don’t give a damn
Just as long as he pays the bill

Did you see that man with a fat cigar
He just left his lunch with a belly full of lobster and caviar
He can choose the wine from a vintage year
He can drink champagne in his limousine
While the rest of us drink a beer

’cause he’s the man in the middle, never second fiddle
Just like a spider in a cobweb
Hard as a hammer, not the kind of boss you double-cross
’cause he’s the man in the middle, knows the way to diddle
He’s never bothered by his conscience
Deals with the devil, ’cause he wants to be
Man in the middle, the middle, the middle
In the middle (in the middle, in the middle...)

But you see that man made a big mistake
Even though he’s got all his servants and a mansion beside a lake
And the money too, all that he can spend
He can buy the most, nearly anything
But he can’t buy an honest friend

’cause he’s the man in the middle, never second fiddle
Just like a spider in a cobweb
Hard as a hammer, not the kind of boss you double-cross
’cause he’s the man in the middle, knows the way to diddle
He’s never bothered by his conscience
Deals with the devil, ’cause he wants to be
Man in the middle, the middle, the middle
In the middle (in the middle, in the middle...)

Текст песни:

The poster on the wall of a dear friend
I wish there was a way that I could show you how your songs set me free
The hero of them all
You′re a legend
I guess I′ll never get a chance to know you
Still you′re close as can be

Make the bandstand to a dreamland, Rubber Ball Man
Clapping your hands, let your feet dance, Rubber Ball Man
When you′re jumping up and down, nobody′s standing still
Some of us dreaming, some of us screaming
Look at your fans, how we love you, Rubber Ball Man!
