HAVE YOU HEARD

(Peter Grönvall / NanneNordqvist-Grönvall)
(Förlag: EMI Music Publ. Scand. AB)

It is the ladies night
They're gonna dance all night
Tonight they will do everything but sleep
Over a drink Susan
Is telling Jill and Anne
A lot of secrets that they swear to keep

Though yesterday Susan, promised Mary
Not to tell what she had been told
There is no harm in telling
Jill and Anne, they'll keep it all

REF: Have You Heard
All the latest news
And I can tell it's true
I know it well
Have You Heard
All the latest gossip
¨ Though I know I promised not to tell

Hey, I'm glad you phoned
I've waited for so long
To tell you what I heard the other day
You know the boy you see
He also dates Susie
Although I promised not a word to say

And have you read the papers
All the latest gossip 'bout the stars that we like
Though it's hard to believe but
I don't that papers lie, so

REF: Have You Heard...

Extra, extra, read all about it!

KNIFE IN THE KITCHEN

(Peter Grönvall / Nanne Nordqvist-Grönvall)
(Förlag: EMI Music Publ. Scand. AB)

Late one Friday night, when I stayed at home
Watching video, saw a horror-show
About a pretty girl all alone in a house
She relaxed and she started to drowse
When she suddenly is woken by a man
Standing right in front of her
Reaching out to lunge at
That's when she recalled

REF: That there's no Knife In The Kitchen
There's no gun in the drawer
Better try to hide away
While he's in the hall
Coz there's no Knife In The Kitchen
There's no gun in the drawer
Can she make it to the door?

And this horror-film made me really scared
Then I heard a noice, was there someone there?
But I told myself, little girl cool down
It's this movie that makes you hear sounds
Then I realized someone's at the door
Oh, I couldn't take no more
So I crept across the floor
That's when I recalled

REF: That there's no Knife In The Kitchen....

Can I make it to the door?
Better make it to the door!

Knife In The Kitchen
Knife In The Kitchen

As I paniced my boyfriend stood in the hall
And I was pale and I looked like a fool
Then we went to bed and I held him tight
Very soon I fell asleep, I was haunted in my dreams
It was all about

REF: That there's no Knife In The Kitchen....

Better make it to the door!
Coz there's no Knife In The Kitchen
There's no gun in the drawer
Better make it to the door!

STRANGER'S IN THE NIGHT (TONIGHT)

(Peter Grönvall / Nanne Nordqvist-Grönvall)
(Förlag: EMI Music Publ. Scand. AB)

Stranger's In The Night
Stranger's In The Night - tonight!

Well it's been quite a night
And I'm lookin for my way back home
Everywhere it's so dark
And I realize I'm not alone
And I know it's more than just a feeling
I can hear that someone is behind
Though I'm sure I heard some heavy breathing
There is no one when I look around

REF How I hate the empty streets
So I'm hurrying my feet
There are Stranger's In The Night
There are villains all around
Where darkness can be found
There are Stranger's In The Night

Why did daddy never teach me karate
To fight

When you're out all alone
There are hunters and you are their quarry
Oh, it's a dangerous world
So you better never stop to worry
My mama told me always to be careful
"Girl, remember always to watch out
And whenever there is danger near you
Start running just before you start to shout!"

REF How I hate the empty streets....

Why did school never give me instruction
In karate or some way to fight
Here I am, badly needing protection
There are Strangers In The Night
Strangers In The Night - tonight

Running for cover, I need to discover
Somewhere to hide though I try to stay cool
Running for places all crowded with faces
Somewhere to hide this lost and trembling fool
There are Stranger's In The Night
There are Stranger's In The Night

REF How I hate the empty streets....

If you're out all alone early mornings
All is silent, with nothing in sight
Don't relax, please remember my warning
There are Stranger's In The Night
Stranger's In The Night - tonight!

WE'RE SO GLAD

(PeterGrönvall / NanneNordqvist-Grönvall)
(Förlag: EMI Music Publ. Scand. AB)

Hey pretty boy, I remember those days when you did
All to convince me that you're full of charm
Hey gorgeous man, you fought for my attention
So I finally gave up, I switched off the alarm
I gave up my mates, my boyfriend and my lovers
But where were your friends?
I soon discovered:

REF:
Kör: We're So Glad that he's yours
Nanne: Won't anybody have him?
Kör: Really glad that he's yours
Nanne: He's boring me to death
Kör: Oh, We're So Glad, oh, so glad
Nanne: I'll pay you if you'll have him
Kör: Try to put out an ad
Nanne: Can't you see it's sad
Who's glad?

Hey boring man, are you really the same
Now won't you tell me what's happened
And why you have changed
Hey lazy man do get up from your sofa
Try to do something, make something out of this day
You bragged all the time 'bout all your girls and lovers
But I have asked them and they answered;

REF:
Kör: We're So Glad that he's yours....

REF:
Nanne: You're So Glad that he's mine
Kör: Coz no one want to have him
Nanne: Really glad he's mine
Kör: He's boring all to death
Nanne: Oh, how I hate that he is mine
Kör: He's nice but we don't want him
It's sad, but we are glad

REF:
Kör: We're So Glad that he's yours...

WHEN THE LADY SHAKES

(Peter Grönvall / Nanne Nordqvist-Grönvall)
(Förlag: EMI Music Publ. Scand. AB / SBKSongs)

I know a girl in town
Who's wearing hand-me-downs
And she's no beauty, no cutie
Always looking frown
She's walking on her own
She's always all alone
And she won't tell ya,
Wont't tell you any jokes for fun

She always stays behind
Won't say what's on her mind
She's acting shy and weak
But she is so unique
I tell you
Wait till you see her around at night
You will never let her out of your sight

REF: And all the people are glancing
When she's out there dancing
Coz everything's quakin'
When the lady's shakin'
And when she's out on the dance floor
Everybody wants more
Coz everything's quakin'
When the lady's shakin'
I know you will stay awake
When The Lady Shakes
When The Lady Shakes
When The Lady, When The Lady
When The Lady Shakes

She's never acting droll
She doesn't need the role
It's just the rhythm
The rhythm that turns on her soul
She lives a special life
And throws her grey discuise
When she is groovin'
She's prooving she can hypnotize

And when a guy turns up
Who wants dance a lot
She's dancing close to him
Until he's in a dim
And she is prooving that looks and a face ain't all
Coz what she has got is worth even more

REF: And all the people are glancing....
