And I couldnt help it,
I just had to kiss the teacher
One of these days
Gonna tell him I dream of him every night
One of these days
Gonna show him I care,
gonna teach him a lesson alright
What a crazy day,
when I kissed the teacher
when I kissed the teacher
As I held my breath, the world stood still,
but then he just smiled
I was in the seventh heaven
when I kissed the teacher
(I wanna hug, hug, hug him)
When I kissed the teacher
Hey,
I'll tell you something about ABBA!
Do you know that ABBA's in the Bible?
It means "father".
- It's in Mark.
- I didn't know that.
The Gospel according to St. Mark.
Chapter 16.
"Abba the Father", it says. He told me.
I thought he was pulling my leg.
It's right in there. A-b-b-a.
Abba - Father.
I've got to get that interview.
I've just got to get it.

Hey! Can everybody just... Let's see
some of the people in the back-
- by some of the people in the front
dropping down a little bit.
Okay, everybody! Looking up this way,
and a bit of action!
- Take it easy, will you!
- Stop it, will you.
Come on, fellas.
No pushing, eh? Take it easy.
- Excuse me. Please...
- Not you again.
Just five minutes. Please.
- Not tonight, Josephine.
- Just for five minutes?

Ashley, I have told 40,000 people
that at 7.30 tomorrow night-
- we will give them
a two-hour ABBA radio special.
In depth, with warmth... and sincerity.
Please, Ashley...
Please?
Hello there!
Excuse me...
You are ABBA's manager, aren't you?
- Yes, I am.
- I hope you can help me.
- I have to get an interview with ABBA.
- Ignore this man, Mr. Anderson.
- He's crazy.
- Take it easy, will you!
I'm doing a radio special, and it
has to be on air tomorrow night.
I really need that interview.
But Mr. Anderson...
I'm really desperate.
If you're down in the reception
by 10 o'clock tomorrow morning...
...I will arrange this for you. Okay?
- For sure?
- I'll get to talk to them?
- Okay. Bye-bye.
From concert to concert
from town to town
as though her whole world was spinning
She got what she wanted, and yet
she feels like a marionette!
You're so free
That's what everybody's telling me
Yet I feel I'm like an outward-bound,
pushed around, refugee
Something's wrong,
got a feeling that I don't belong
As if I have come from outer space,
out of place, like King Kong
I'm a marionette, just a marionette,
pull the string
I'm a marionette, everybody's pet,
just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette, see my pirouette,
'round and 'round
I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette,
just a silly old clown
Like a doll,
like a puppet with no will at all
And somebody taught me how to talk,
how to walk, how to fall
Can't complain,
I've got no-one but myself to blame
Something's happening I can't control,
lost my hold, it's insane
Look this way, just a little smile,
is what they say
You look better on the photograph
if you laugh, that's okay!!
I'm a marionette, just a marionette,
pull the string
I'm a marionette, everybody's pet,
just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette, see my pirouette,
'round and 'round
I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette,
just a silly old clown
I'm a marionette
I feel something's wrong,
got a feeling that I don't belong
As if I have come from outer space,
out of place, like King Kong
I'm a marionette, just a marionette,
pull the string
I'm a marionette, everybody's pet,
just as long as I sing
I'm a marionette, see my pirouette,
'round and 'round
I'm a marionette, I'm a marionette,
just a silly old clown
I'm a marionette

- who want to en joy this concert
as much as you. Dont you?
It is time to get your rocks on!
First row, right? Thank you.
Everybody on stage!
All right! Ten minutes
and away we go!
We want ABBA! We want ABBA!
Now we're old and grey, Fernando
Since many years I haven't
seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night
we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight
for freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Thank you. Thank you so much.
- I'm goanna talk to them tomorrow.
- Really?
- Yeah. Interview them.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- Good luck.

Youve been sitting for a long time now
