Waterloo
B. Andersson, S. Anderson, B. Ulvaeus
Jo jo, vid Waterloo Napoleon fick ge sig
Men men, sitt \'f6de kan man m\'f6ta p\'e5 s\'e5 m\'e5nga skilda s\'e4tt
Sj\'e4lv k\'e4nner jag, sen jag m\'f6tt dig
Historien upprepar sig
Waterloo, jag \'e4r besegrad, nu ger jag mig
Waterloo, lova mej n\'f6jet att \'e4lska dig
Waterloo, allting k\'e4nns r\'e4tt, och det \'e4r min tro
Waterloo, du \'e4r mitt \'f6de, mitt Waterloo
Wah-wah-wah-wah Waterloo
Du \'e4r mitt \'f6de, mitt Waterloo
Jo jo, man v\'e4rjer sig och f\'e4ktas i det l\'e4ngsta
Men men, mot k\'e4nslor k\'e4mpar gudarna f\'f6rg\'e4vas har man sagt
Det \'e4r som jag h\'f6rde en s\'e5ng
Jag tror det \'e4r k\'e4rlek p\'e5 g\'e5ng
Waterloo, s\'e5 har man funnit sin \'f6verman
Waterloo, m\'e4ktig och v\'e4ldig och stark \'e4r han
Waterloo, allting k\'e4nns r\'e4tt, och det \'e4r min tro
Waterloo, du \'e4r mitt \'f6de, mitt Waterloo
Wah-wah-wah-wah Waterloo
Du \'e4r mitt \'f6de, mitt Waterloo
Det \'e4r som jag h\'f6rde en s\'e5ng
Jag tror det \'e4r k\'e4rlek p\'e5 g\'e5ng
Waterloo, allting k\'e4nns r\'e4tt, och det \'e4r min tro
Waterloo, du \'e4r mitt \'f6de, mitt Waterloo
Wah-wah-wah-wah Waterloo
Du \'e4r mitt \'f6de, mitt Waterloo
Sitting In The Palmtree
B. Andersson, B. Ulvaeus
See me sitting in the palm tree
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 palm tree
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 her window
Dark trees
Soft breeze
Carry my message to her, please
See me sitting in the palm tree
Getting 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
King Kong Song
B. Andersson, B. Ulvaeus
Well, I was looking at a movie on the TV last night
Then I had a very funny notion, yeah
I really had to write a song about it
And then I'm gonna sing it with my rock'n roll band
And I bet the people gonna like it, yeah
I know that everybody's gonna shout it
But what a dreadful mighty killer
A big black wild gorilla
We do the King Kong song
Won't you sing along
Listen to the music and it couldn't go wrong
We do the King Kong song
Gotta sing along
Can't you hear the beating of the monkey tom-tom
Listen to the rhythm of the King Kong song
Now we can make a jungle out of any old place
We can make gorillas out of people, yeah
Well, who can tell a monkey from a monkey?
So, people get together, gonna have a good time
Everybody listen to the music, yeah
The song we're gonna sing is kinda funky
So let your arms hang down
And waddle all around
Like a dreadful mighty killer
A big black wild gorilla
We do the King Kong song
Won't you sing along
Listen to the music and it couldn't go wrong
We do the King Kong song
Gotta sing along
Can't you hear the beating of the monkey tom-tom
Listen to the rhythm of the King Kong song
Like a dreadful mighty killer
A big black wild gorilla
We do the King Kong song
Won't you sing along
Listen to the music and it couldn't go wrong
We do the King Kong song
Gotta sing along
Can't you hear the beating of the monkey tom-tom
Listen to the rhythm of the King Kong song
Hasta Manana
B. Andersson, S. Anderson, B. Ulv\'e6us)
Where is the spring and the summer
That once was yours and mine?
Where did it go?
I just don't know
But still my love for you will live forever
Hasta ma\'f1ana 'till we meet again
Don't know where, don't know when
Darling, our love was much too strong to die
We'll find a way to face a new tomorrow
Hasta Ma\'f1ana, say we'll meet again
I can't do without you
Time to forget, send me a letter
Say you forgive, the sooner the better
Hasta ma\'f1ana baby, hasta ma\'f1ana until then
Where is the dream we were dreaming
And all the nights we shared
Where did they go?
I just don't know
And I can't tell you just how much I miss you
Hasta ma\'f1ana 'till we meet again
Don't know where, don't know when
Darling, our love was much too strong to die
We'll find a way to face a new tomorrow
Hasta Ma\'f1ana, say we'll meet again
I can't do without you
Time to forget, send me a letter
Say you forgive, the sooner the better
Hasta ma\'f1ana baby, hasta ma\'f1ana until then
Hasta Ma\'f1ana, say we'll meet again
I can't do without you
Time to forget, send me a letter
Say you forgive, the sooner the better
Hasta ma\'f1ana baby, hasta ma\'f1ana until then
My Mama Said
B. Andersson, B. Ulvaeus
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"
Then 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't live without it"
"How I wish you wouldn't doubt it"
Ooh, my mama said, "If you wanna 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
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
La-la-la, la-la-la, life
Dance While The Music Still Goes On)
B. Andersson, B. Ulvaeus
Oh, my love it makes me sad
Why did things turn out so bad?
Was it just a dream, everything we did, everything we had?
Baby, give me one more
Dance, while the music still goes on
Don't think about tomorrow
Dance, and forget our time is gone
Tonight's a night we borrow
Let's make it a memory, a night of our own
A thing to remember when we're all alone
So dance, it's our way to say goodbye
Yes, all we have to do is
Dance, while the music still goes on
This is no time for crying
Dance, don't you hear them play our song
God knows that we've been trying
But we didn't make it 'cause nothing's the same
We just couldn't help it, nobody's to blame
So dance, while the music still goes on
And let it be our last goodbye
Yet, it seems to make me sad
Why did things turn out so bad?
Was it just a dream, everything we did, everything we had?
Baby, give me one last
Dance, while the music still goes on
Just like the night I met you
Dance, and believe me, when you're gone
You know I won't forget you
Our love was a snowbird, it's flying away
You tell me it's over, what more can I say?
So dance, while the music still goes on
It's gonna be our last goodbye
Dance, while the music still goes on
Don't think about tomorrow
Dance, and forget our time is gone
Tonight's a night we borrow
Let's make it a memory, a night of our own
A thing to remember when we're all alone
So dance, while the music still goes on
And let it be our last goodbye
Dance, while the music still goes on
This is no time for crying
Dance, don't you hear them play our song
God knows that we've been trying
Dance, while the music still goes on
Just like the night I met you
Dance, and believe me, when you're gone
You know I won't forget you

Travelling up the Nile
Putting themselves on test

Suzy-Hang-Around
B. Andersson, B. Ulvaeus
Suzy was nine and I was ten
Right at the time when boys like to think they're men
She used to follow us from school
We really thought that she was a little fool
And one day we said to her
We don't wanna hurt you girl
But you 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 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
