THE PIPER

admin — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 16:16:52 +0000

THEY CAME FROM THE HILLS
AND THEY CAME FROM
THE VALLEYS AND THE PLAINS
THEY STRUGGLED IN THE COLD
IN THE HEAT AND THE SNOW
AND IN THE RAIN
CAME TO HEAR HIM PLAY
PLAY THEIR MINDS AWAY

WEÂ´RE ALL FOLLOWING
A STRANGE MELODY
WEÂ´RE ALL SUMMONED BY A TUNE
WEÂ´RE FOLLOWING THE PIPER
AND WE DANCE BENEATH THE MOON
WEÂ´RE FOLLOWING THE PIPER
AND WE DANCE BENEATH THE MOON FOR HIM
AND WE DANCE BENEATH THE MOON

THEY CAME FROM THE SOUTH
FROM THE WEST AND THE NORTH
AND FROM THE EAST
THEY WAITED FOR THE MAN
LIKE A PARISH IS WAITING FOR THE PRIEST
LONGED TO HEAR HIM PLAY
PLAY THEIR MINDS AWAY

WEÂ´RE ALL FOLLOWING…

HE GAVE THEM A DREAM
HE SEDUCED EVERYBODY IN THE LAND
THE FIRE IN HIS EYES
AND THE FEAR WAS A WEAPON IN HIS HAND
SO THEY LET HIM PLAY
PLAY THEIR MINDS AWAY

WEÂ´RE ALL FOLLOWING

Hasta Manana

admin — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 06:06:28 +0000

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

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 MaÃ±ana ’til 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 MaÃ±ana, 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 MaÃ±ana, baby, Hasta MaÃ±ana, until then
Hasta MaÃ±ana, 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 MaÃ±ana, baby, Hasta MaÃ±ana, until then

Does Your Mother Know? 3:13

————————————-
(written by Benny Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus)
——————————————————-
You’re so hot, teasing me
So you’re blue but I can’t take a chance on a chick like you
That’s something I couldn’t do
There’s that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl you’re only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it’s funny
Does your mother know that you’re out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you’re out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That’s no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

I can see what you want
But you seem pretty young to be searching for that kind of fun
So maybe I’m not the one
Now you’re so cute, I like your style
And I know what you mean when you give me a flash of that smile (smile)
But girl you’re only a child

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it’s funny
Does your mother know that you’re out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you’re out?

Take it easy (take it easy)
Better slow down girl
That’s no way to go
Does your mother know?
Take it easy (take it easy)
Try to cool it girl
Take it nice and slow
Does your mother know?

Well I can dance with you honey
If you think it’s funny
Does your mother know that you’re out?
And I can chat with you baby
Flirt a little maybe
Does your mother know that you’re out?

Gimme Gimme Gimme (a Man After Midnight)

admin — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 00:00:57 +0000

Half past twelve
And i’m watching the late show in my flat all alone
How i hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as i look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the phone
There’s not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won’t somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
It’s so different from the world i’m living in
Tired of t.v.
I open the window and i gaze into the night
But there’s nothing there to see, no one in sight
There’s not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won’t somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight…
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight…

There’s not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won’t somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won’t somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

PUT ON YOUR WHITE SOMBRERO

admin — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 09:09:12 +0000

PUT ON YOUR WHITE SOMBRERO
SADDLE YOUR HORSE MY DEAR
AND RIDE OFF INTO THE SUNSET
YOU BETTER GO
FOR THERE IS NO PLACE FOR YOU HERE
LIKE AN OLD-FASHIONED HERO
YOU STAND BEFORE ME
OH, YOU THINK I LIKE THIS MOVIE
MY WORLD IS REAL, I EVEN 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
DONÂ´T SHOW YOUR FEELINGS
IÂ´LL CRY WHILE YOUÂ´RE DISAPPEARING
INTO THE NIGHT, AND DRESSED IN WHITE
UNCHAINED AND FREE WITHOUT ME

PUT ON YOUR WHITE SOMBRERO
LIKE ALL THE COWBOYS DO
GO FIND A SWEET SEÃ‘ORITA
SOMEBODY MEEK WHO NEVER SPEAK
HARSHLY TO YOU
YOUÂ´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
OH, YOU NEVER TAKE ME
JUST AS I AM
I NEED A MAN WHO IS IN RHYME
WITH HIS TIME

Voulez Vous 511

People everywhere
A sense of expectation hanging in the air
Giving out a spark
Across the room your eyes are glowing in the dark
And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene
We’ve done it all before and now we’re back to get some more
You know what I mean

Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Take it now or leave it (ah-ha)
Now is all we get (ah-ha)
Nothing promised, no regrets
Voulez-vous (ah-ha)
Ain’t no big decision (ah-ha)
You know what to do (ah-ha)
La question c’est voulez-vous
Voulez-vous…

I know what you think
“The girl means business so I’ll offer her a drink”
Feeling mighty proud
I see you leave your table, pushing through the crowd
I’m really glad you came, you know the rules, you know the game
Master of the scene
We’ve done it all before and now we’re back to get some more
You know what I mean

And here we go again, we know the start, we know the end
Masters of the scene
We’ve done it all before and now we’re back to get some more
You know what I mean

Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)
Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)
Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)
Voulez-vous (ah-ha, ah-ha, ah-ha)

He Is Your Brother

admin — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 13:13:25 +0000

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

Thank You For The Music

admin — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 15:15:30 +0000

I’m nothing special, in fact I’m a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you’ve probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
‘Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I’m so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud

So I say
Thank you for the music, the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say thank you for the music
For giving it to me

Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
She says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I’ve often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can?
Well, whoever it was, I’m a fan

I’ve been so lucky, I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance!

The Day Before You Came

admin — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 14:14:55 +0000

I must have left my house at eight, because I always do
My train, I’m certain, left the station just when it was due
I must have read the morning paper going into town
And having gotten through the editorial, no doubt I must have frowned
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so
The usual place, the usual bunch
And still on top of this I’m pretty sure it must have rained
The day before you came

I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day
Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away
At five I must have left, there’s no exception to the rule
A matter of routine, I’ve done it ever since I finished school
The train back home again
Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then
Oh yes, I’m sure my life was well within it’s usual frame
The day before you came

I must have opened my front door at eight o’clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go
I’m sure I had my dinner watching something on TV
There’s not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn’t see
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then
I must have read a while
The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style
It’s funny, but I had no sense of living without aim
The day before you came

And turning out the light
I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night
And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
The day before you came

Kisses Of Fire

admin — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 06:06:15 +0000

Lay your head on my chest so you hear every beat of my heart
Now there’s nothing at all that can keep us apart
Touch my lips, close your eyes and see with your fingertips
Things that you do, and you know I’m crazy ’bout you

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
I’ve had my share of love affairs but they were nothing compared to this
Oh, I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
Kisses of fire
Kisses of fire

When you sleep by my side I feel safe and I know I belong
Still it’s making me scared that my love is so strong
Losing you is a nightmare fate and to me it’s new
Never before did you see me begging for more

Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
(I’m at the point of no returning)
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
I’m riding higher than the sky and there is fire in every kiss
(Caught in a land-slide of emotions)
Kisses of fire, burning, burning
I’m at the point of no returning
Kisses of fire, sweet devotions
Caught in a land-slide of emotions

Lovers Live A Little Longer

admin — Sat, 08 Aug 2009 02:02:56 +0000

Sit down and listen ’cause I’ve got good news for you
It was in the papers today
Some physician had made a discovery
This’ what she had to say:
(Oooh you know that)

She said that every result she had backed her
Claiming that love’s a longevity factor

So lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, ain’t that nice
Lovers live a little longer, baby
What a feeling when I hold you tight
Lovers live a little longer, yeah

I can imagine, I’ll see in my fantasy
I’ll enjoy every day
Making love is a dynamite drug, baby
So why don’t we start right away
(Ahh, please don’t wait)

I don’t care if they’re watching ’cause listen
We’ve got a reason for each time we’re kissing

‘Cause lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, ain’t that nice
Lovers live a little longer, baby
What a feeling when I hold you tight
Lovers live a little longer, yeah

I just don’t care if they’re watching ’cause listen
We’ve got a reason for each time we’re kissing

Lovers live a little longer, baby
You and me, we got a chance to live twice
Lovers live a little longer, yeah

Take a Chance

admin — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 09:09:11 +0000

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

Merry goround

admin — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 22:22:09 +0000

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

Dance

admin — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 23:23:32 +0000

Chiquitita, tell me what’s wrong
You’re enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I’m a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I’m the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you’ve broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they’re leaving
You’ll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love’s a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you’re oh so sad, so quiet

Reina Danzante (Dancing Queen – in Spanish)

admin — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 14:14:49 +0000

A bailar, a girar
Sabes reir y vibrar
Miren bien, alli va
Como una reina ya

Viernes noche y adonde ir
todo listo para salir
luces por todas partes
busquen un lugar
musica 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 reir y vibrar
Miren bien, alli va
Como una reina ya

Y aungue sabes coquetear
te interesa solo bailar
con quien ya no te importa
sola te da igual
nadie te va a parar

A bailar, a girar
Sabes reir y vibrar
Miren bien, alli va
Como una reina ya

Nina Pretty Ballerina

admin — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 10:10:43 +0000

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
She don’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…

Lay All Your Love On Me 4:33

admin — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 00:00:44 +0000

————————————–
(written by Benny Anderson and Bjorn Ulvaeus)
——————————————————-
I wasn’t jealous before we met
Now every woman I see is a potential threat
And I’m possessive, it isn’t nice
You’ve heard me saying that smoking was my only vice
But now it isn’t true
Now everything is new
And all I’ve learned has overturned
I beg of you…

Don’t go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me

It was like shooting a sitting duck
A little smalltalk, a smile and baby I was stuck
I still don’t know what you’ve done with me
A grown-up woman should never fall so easily
I feel a kind of fear
When I don’t have you near
Unsatisfied, I skip my pride
I beg you dear…

Don’t go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don’t go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

I’ve had a few little love affairs
They didn’t last very long and they’ve been pretty scarce
I used to think that was sensible
It makes the truth even more incomprehensible
‘Cause everything is new
And everything is you
And all I’ve learned has overturned
What can I do…

Don’t go wasting your emotion
Lay all your love on me
Don’t go sharing your devotion
Lay all your love on me

(repeat 2x and fade)

Mammamia ( in spanish )

admin — Sat, 30 May 2009 20:20:13 +0000

Yo por ti me engane, hace tiempo lo se
y ya lo decidi, ahora te dejare

Mirame bien, cuando aprendere
no se por que, vivo tanto esta gran pasion
que me quema el corazon

Si me miras siento tanto placer
si te acercas creo desvanecer

Oh! Oh! Mamma mia, una y otra vez
no se, como resistirte
Mamma mia, quiero y tu lo ves
no se, como evadirte

Tu que me has provocado
luego me has rechazado
Por que te sigo queriendo asi?

Mamma mia, ya lo decidi
porque, no puedo vivir sin ti.

Tu me has hecho enojar
con tu modo de ser
y quisiera olvidar
tantas cosas ayer.

Mirame bien, cuando aprendere
no se por que, vivo tanto esta gran pasion
que me quema el corazon

Si me miras siento tanto placer
si te acercas creo desvanecer

Oh, oh, Mamma mia, una y otra vez
no se, como resistirte
Mamma mia, quiero y tu lo ves
no se, como evadirte

Tu me has provocado
luego me has rechazado
porque, te sigo queriendo asi

Mamma mia, ya lo decidi
porque, no puedo vivir sin ti.
