ABBA: The Movie Page #2

People who fear me

never go near me,

I am the tiger

Yellow eyes are glowing

like the neon lights

Yellow eyes,

the spotlights of the city nights

I am behind you,

I'll always find you,

I am the tiger

And if I meet you,

what if I eat you,

I am the tiger, tiger, tiger!

Thank you!

All right. All right.

- Can I see your press card, please?

- I haven't got my card on me.

I'm sorry, but I can't let you in

if you haven't got a card. Okay.

But I'm a radio announcer.

I've got to get an interview with them.

There's nothing I can do. If you

haven't got a card, you can't get in.

- I'll buy a ticket. How much are they?

- Sold right out.

I haven't got one left.

I'm very sorry.

Hello, Sydney!

Very glad to see you!

I'll tell you one thing:

You make us forget the rain.

I just hope that we

can make you forget it, too!

Where are those happy days,

they seem so hard to find

I tried to reach for you,

but you have closed your mind

Whatever happened to our love

I wish I understood

It used to be so nice,

it used to be so good

So when you're near me,

darling can't you hear me

S.O.S.

The love you gave me,

nothing else can save me

S.O.S.

When you're gone

How can I even try to go on

When you're gone

Though I try how can I carry on

You seemed so far away

though you were standing near

You made me feel alive,

but something died I fear

I really tried to make it out

I wish I understood

What happened to our love,

it used to be so good

So when you're near me,

darling can't you hear me

S.O.S.

The love you gave me,

nothing else can save me

S.O.S.

When you're gone

How can I even try to go on

When you're gone

Though I try how can I carry on

ABBA tickets for sale... ABBA tickets

going cheap. Want any tickets, mate?

- Want any ABBA tickets?

- Are you selling tickets?

- How much? I'll buy one.

- 50 bucks.

50 dollars? I haven't got 50 dollars.

You ain't gonna see ABBA then,

are you?

Money, money, money

Must be funny in the rich man's world

Money, money, money

Always sunny in the rich man's world

Aha-ahaaa, all the things I could do

If I had a little money

It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world

A man like that is hard to find

but I can't get him off my mind

Ain't it sad

And if he happens to be free

I bet he wouldn't fancy me

That's too bad

So I must leave, I'll have to go

To Las Vegas or Monaco

And win a fortune in a game,

my life will never be the same

Money, money, money

Must be funny in the rich man's world

Money, money, money

Always sunny in the rich man's world

Aha-ahaaa, all the things I could do

If I had a little money

It's a rich man's world

Money, money, money

Must be funny in the rich man's world

Money, money, money

Always sunny in the rich man's world

Aha-ahaaa, all the things I could do

If I had a little money

It's a rich man's world

It's a rich man's world

Thank you, Sydney!

The Sydney Opera House?

They should be there, mate,

that's what they reckon.

Terrific. Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Could you... hold this?

Could you, sort of,

hold it in the middle?

Let's have a smile.

Down. Lower! Down a bit.

That's it.

- Happy now.

- What do you mean, "happy"?

Excuse me...

Is it possible to have a talk?

Not now.

Go somewhere and have a quiet talk?

I know that this is an incredible

hassle for you... with all these people.

I can understand

these problems that you have-

- but if we can go somewhere quiet...

Have a drink or something to eat.

Go back. Press photographers only.

- Can we go somewhere quiet...?

- You can't go anywhere with them.

No interviews today at all,

it's just press photographers.

I was a fighter always looking for trouble

And my life was so empty,

didn't care for anybody

But then it happened one night

as I got into a fight

I could hear someone saying

as though he was praying:

Ah...

Treat him well, he is your brother

You might need his help one 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...

Treat him well, he is your brother

You might need his help one day

We depend on one another

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

Yeah, yeah, sure. Everything's fine.

There's no need to worry.

I met them at the airport,

we spoke for quite a long time...

Yes. Yes. There's just one thing:

- I have to go to Perth.

- Perth?

That's 2,000 miles

and a very expensive airfare away.

Yes, I know that, but you wanted

the close personal story, and they...

That's the way it has to be.

I have to get to know them.

They have to trust me.

I want every listener on 2TW

to share ABBA with you-

- and me and all of us, privately.

Right?

Don't worry.

I'll get the personal side.

No, no, no. I'll be able

to edit and record as I go.

I've already got

some interviews in the street-

- some comments on people,

how they feel about the group. Yeah.

Oh! Also...

Could you send my press card to Perth?

I left in such a rush

that I left it in the studio.

- Can I help you?

- Yes.

Could I...

Can I have these two T-shirts, please.

I'll take this as well. Thank you.

Thank you.
