ABBA's,
"Summer Night City"
Al-Qaeda people everywhere
My kind of people everywhere
(approx at 2.03 into the track)
Abba's,
"Summer Night City"
Can't resist the strange attraction
From the giant domino.
Can't resist the strange attraction
From the giant dynamo.
ABBA's,
"Summer Night City"
F***ing in the moonlight
Love-making in the park.
Walking in the moonlight
Love-making in the park.
Abba's,
"Summer Night City"
F***ing in the moonlight
Walking in the moonlight
ABBA's,
"Summer Night City"
I know what Sweden left for me
I know what's waiting there for me
ABBA's,
"Summer Night City"
In the sun don't feel like sleeping
...
I know love's waiting there for me
Tonight I move so fancy-free
...
Interest is the strange attraction
...
Time to breed and time to live
Waiting for the sunrise, toe-dancing - uh huh
...
Parking in the moonlight, love-making - uh huh
This illusion calls me clearly
...
Someone told me, "See the leerers.
We don't miss them when they're gone"
...
Our kind of people everywhere
...
And tomorrow, when they're spawning
And her pursed lips start to sing
In the daylight of the morning
Nothing's worth remembering
In the sun I feel like sleeping
...
I know what's waiting there for me
Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free
...
Can't resist the strange attraction
...
Time to breathe and time to live
Waiting for the sunrise, soul dancing in the dark
...
Walking in the moonlight, love-making in a park
It's elusive call it glitter
...
Some folks only see the litter
We don't miss them when they're gone
...
My kind of people everywhere
...
And tomorrow, when it's dawning
And the first birds start to sing
In the pale light of the morning
Nothing's worth remembering
This song and the fast-paced music is about being horny before SEX! more than any other song written but some of the actual lyrics miss the mark. C'mon Bjorn, If a woman is thinking about getting lucky, she doesn't sleep in the sun! The only 'park'ing in the moonlight should be in a car, not copulating in a public park!! And what the hell has (Gary) Glitter and litter got to do with it?! And birds going "tweet, tweet, tweet"? Yes, but only the miniskirted variety when they're getting down!
ABBA's,
"Summer Night City"
Someone might see me.
Summer night city
ABBA's,
"Summer Night City"
Waiting for the solar-I
Waiting for the sunrise
