Long ago when rock was young
The place to go where the songs were sung
Was a space in your radio
That`s the place everyone would go
on 208 meters mediumwave
you`d always hear the music play
the wonderful colourful station of the stars
they said it`s where the best songs are
Radio Luxembourg
on 208 there was always fun
and till late all the songs were sung
Every night you would tune it in
It felt so right just to tune it in
on 208 meters mediumwave…
we listened to the station and the music they played
it was the queen of mediumwave
we waited all the day and when the night came we stayed
enjoying all the thrills it gave
enjoying all the thrills
on 208 meters mediumwave…
you could claim nostalgic dream
just the same how it may seem
that`s the time when rock was young
I know that I`m not the only one
on 208 meters mediumwave…

I live with an elderly lady
Who lives with an elderly man
The eyes may be somewhat shady
But we are doing what we can
To let love grow between us
And make every day be bright
From early in the morning
Till we fall asleep at night
This life we are living together
Our life going up going down
The bond is not one of tether
It`s love dismissing any frown
You ask what we are doing
To make every day be bright
The secret is to do right
When we fall asleep at night
don`t know about tomorrow
will there be pain and sorrow
don`t know but I am sure of
our love is always true
we are but an elderly couple
we live but an elderly life
(Instr. 4 rader)
we do right from the morning
Till we fall asleep at night
don`t know about tomorrow…
don`t know about tomorrow…

Train of Emotions
03:18
|
|||
I`m walkin` around in the city
I think it`s a pity
that my woman is breaking
my heart keeps on aching
and the train of emotions
the train of emotions is coming
on the tracks of my sadness
I feel the pain
I`m alone again
on the train of emotions
walking around in the night of sadness
in the marmalade
walking around in the day of sorrow
deep inside the shade
and the marmalade
and the train of emotions
the train of emotions is coming
on the tracks of my sadness
and deep in my mind is a woman
the train is acomin`
`cos my woman is leaving
the woman I`m needing
and the train of emotions .....
walking around in the night .....
the train of emotions is coming
on the tracks of my sadness
I`m crying
on the train of emotions

Under My Window
02:56
|

under my window
under my window
under my window
under my window
there I see lovers kiss
under my window
down in the street
I see lovers that stay there and kiss
under my window
there is a place to meet
for lovers who play there on a night like this
under my window
I see a girl
and she walks hand in hand with a boy
under my window
nobody in this world
knows that those two lovers they fill me with joy
under my window
there I see lovers go by
and to me that`s all that I can enjoy
under my window
there walks a man
and he looks so sad he almost cries
under my window
she comes and takes his hand
and he kiss her lips and sees love in her eyes
under my window
there I see lovers go by
and to me that`s all that I can enjoy
under my window
under my window
under my window
under my window
I see happiness go by
and I sit here and cry my eye

High Pressure
05:01
|

High pressure
The sky is blue beneath the sun
High pressure
We all fall through one by one
Where is the limit
Who's gonna win it
Is there a limit
Just press any button don't ask what it's for
If your mum gets angry it's just another roar
Just press any button don't mind what they say
You don't know what's going it's just another day
You do just what you please
To make you feel at ease
Just ask any question that you want to know
If your mum gets upset you gotta let her go
Just ask any question that is on your mind
If you get no answer just leave it way behind
You ask just what you please
To make you feel at ease
High pressure…
Just tell everybody what you think is right
If there's a bad reaction don't you put up a fight
Just tell everybody what’s good and what’s bad
The worst audience is the one you never had
You say just what you please
To make you feel at ease
High pressure…
High pressure…

Sing For You
03:36
|
|||
I'll sing for you when I'm dead and gone
If you only play my song
And if you do
I will always be here for you
I`ll sing for you every day and night
I will always do you right
And when I do
I would want you to feel good too
Making the most of a lifetime
Is very hard `cos there`s no manual
You don`t wanna end up a life crime
Paying the dues more than annual
And when it`s pay back time
I hope you`re feeling fine
I'll sing for you when I'm …
Being is hard for a lifetime
Trying to do what you're supposed to do
And on the last day of my lifetime
I would prefer being close to you
And when that day appears
I hope there are no fears
I'll sing for you when I'm …
I'll sing for you every …
I'll sing for you when I'm dead and gone
If you only play my song
I`ll let you know
When I feel it is time to go
I`ll let you know
When I feel it is time to go
I`ll let you know

Black Pepper
04:58
|

you`re the icing on the cake
with every move you make
you`re the apple of my eye
you make me wanna sigh
you´re so fine
and you`re mine
you`re so nice
and you`re my spice
Black pepper
You`re my black pepper
Black pepper
You`re my black pepper
You`re the talking of the town
You`ll make the house go down
And you make me dance on air
our love is everywhere
you´re so fine …
Black pepper …
In your life you need some lovin`
In your life you have to love some
In your life you want some lovin`
In your life you have to love someone
Black pepper …
Black pepper …

Sir Nigel the Dog
03:44
|
|||
he`s sitting on a windpipe eating yellow flags
his eyes are shining wildly at people that he nags
in the morning he will eat your naughty knickers
with a head`s hog
Sir Nigel the dog
just send him away
you hear what I say
Sir Nigel the dog
he runs around the city scaring people bad
he gives them bad illusions that they`ve never had
in the morning he is screaming
in a radio station`s sea log
Sir Nigel the ....
he`s running round in circles falling into bags
the people see him running and eating all his flags
in the morning he will zip his underwear
destruction thick fog
Sir Nigel the ....
Sir Nigel the dog

Formula
04:48
|
|||
you gotta have a formula
you gotta have a script
you gotta have a great plan
so you can follow it
you gotta have a formula
a way for you to go
so everyone will know
what to expect
you gotta have a formula
you gotta have….
If you you ain`t got a formula
Confusion is the way
And you will go astray
That`s how it is
you gotta have a formula
you gotta have….
And if you got no formula
And do it your own way
Beware of what they say
You`re gonna lose
you gotta have a formula
you gotta have….
you gotta have a formula
be sure to do it right
and don`t put up a fight
to be O.K.

Poor Man's Game
03:20
|
|||
Silly Willy on the filly
makin' it with Billy
singin` in a boring song
pay attention to the chili
makin' it fusilli
trying all to sing along
it`s a poor man`s game
it ain`t got no aim
don`t know who to blame
that I bear the shame
Picadilly in vanilly
man I feel so silly
tryin` it the best I can
rockabilly with a lily
mind if she's too hilly
I am just a lonely man
it`s a poor man`s game...
When you've heard all the jokes and seen every move
And you feel like it chokes and there's nothing more to prove
it`s a poor man`s game
and it`s just the same
it`s a poor man`s game
Silly Willy in his tilley
feels like killy dilly
lookin` all the best he knows
and she`s wearing something frilly
makin`it with willie
everyone knows where it goes
it`s a poor man`s game...

Summer Is Here
03:04
|
|||
walkin` about
sunshine is out
there is no doubt
summer is here
girls passin` by
gleams in their eyes
boys by their sides
summer is here
sitting on a sunny morning
feeling all the things you feel
fresh air and you`re not yawning
something says this ain`t no deal
lookin` at those happy wand`rers
walkin` side by side
the land is wide
feelings inside
wake up the tide
I stopped to cry
summer is here
I smile at you
and you smile too
think I`ll get through
summer is here
got some hopes of love from your mind
something I just feel inside
like you because you`re so kind
something says you`re by my side
do you wanna see the movies
I`d rather see you
now let me do
I don`t know why
I`ve stopped to cry
now it`s all right
summer is here
nobody knew
my love for you
still it is true
summer is here
go down to the very depth of my mind
ring the bells of love you see there
I`m living for you and the love you`ll find
do you find it in me then care
walkin` around
hearing the sound
of grass on the ground
summer is here
you will like me
as I like thee
we`re feelin` free
summer is here

Do To a Daughter
05:45
|
|||
The boys keep chanting their desire
The boys keep chanting their desire
But I'm gonna put out their fire
I won't let them get any higher
Cos I know what they can do to a daughter
And I won't let them do it to you
No I won't let them do it to you
A man goes lurking around you
A man goes lurking around you
I don't know how he has found you
But I'll have to do what I'm bound to
Cos I know what he can do to a daughter
And I won't let him do it to you
No I won't let him do it to you
I just wanna show my affection
I just wanna show my affection
I'm anxious of your selection
It's all about your protection
Cos I know what they can do to a daughter
And I won't let them do it to you
No I won't let them do it to you

Stitches
03:36
|
|||
Limp instead of walkin'
Tell you why it's so
It's so hard to move
With stitches on the toe
Looking for some dinner
There inside the shop
Suddenly I fell down
The foot came to a stop
Woman in the food store
Asked did I need aid
Looking down I noticed
Blood in a cascade
Said I`ll take some napkins
Blood will stop to flow
I will take my dinner
Before I have to go
Waking up the lady
Bringing home the food
She looked up and asked
Had I´ve been in a feud
Told her what had happened
Going to the shop
That I was surprised when
The foot came to a stop
Got to see a doctor
All she had to say
Didn`t think I had to
Wanted my buffet
Well OK let`s eat first
Then we`ll have to go
Waiting in the room for
Some stitches on the toe
stitches on the toe stitches on the toe
stitches on the toe stitches on the toe
Limp instead of walkin'
Tell you why it's so
It's so hard to move
With stitches on the toe
Limp instead of walkin'
Tell you why it's so
It's so hard to move
With the stitches on the toe
It's so hard to move
With the stitches on the toe

Eating Apple-Pie
03:28
|
|||
I put some hot dogs in my ears
and I walked down to your grave
I jumped into the earth
and I ate your slave
in the bottle was a hole
and the bucket stood at drawn
the undertaker walked home
I could see him yawn
so I`m lookin` kinda fusty
eating apple pie
the water poured in through my hat
and my brain crawled out of sight
my arms came to your head
and I held you tight
in my pocket was a man
and he said: son, you`re a cow
I hit him with a body
blood poured down his brow
he was lookin` sad while I was
eating apple pie
April honey works on me
I am feeling oh so free
building all this misery
I laugh
I cry, aaa
I grabbed a minute by the hand
and I kissed my uncle Jay
I took my father to the water
and I made him sway
in the red magnolia tree
was a withdrawn questionmark
it looked like mister Wilson
sitting in the park
and his eyes were kinda yellow
eating apple pie
inside the pretty lookin` bird
I was havin` kinda fun
but suddenly I heard
someone start to run
and I made your sister laugh
and she walked offside to cry
the mystery grew thicker
while the band walked by
so I`m sitting on my playground
eating apple pie
April honey works on me
I am feeling oh so free
building all this misery
I laugh
I cry
