Fairytale of New York [live]

Lyrics

[Mellansnack: Håkan] Tack s� mycket, tack f�r dansarna Tack f�r t�rarna p� kinderna, och stj�rnorna p� himlarna Jag undrar varf�r det inte sn�ar l�ngre kring jul, f�rresten Som jag minns det s� var det alltid sn� p� julafton och s�nt d�r men, det kanske �r en efterkonstruktion Det spelar kanske inte s� stor roll heller Inte s� l�nge man har Fairytale Of New York Och inte s� l�nge man har Plura Jonsson [Vers 1: Plura] It was Christmas Eve, babe In the drunk tank An old man said to me "Won't see another one" And then he sang a song ''The Rare Old Mountain Dew'' I turned my face away And dreamed about you [Vers 2: Plura] Got on a lucky one Came in eighteen-to-one I got a feeling This year's for you and me So happy Christmas I love you, baby I can see a better time When all our dreams come true [Vers 3:Håkan och Plura] They've got cars big as bars They've got rivers of gold But the wind blows right through you It's no place for the old When you first took my hand On a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway Was waiting for me [Vers 4: V�xlande, tillsammans] ''You were handsome!'' ''You were pretty Queen of New York City'' When the band finished playing They howled out for more Sinatra was swinging All the drunks, they were singing We kissed on a corner Then danced through the night [Refr�ng: H�kan och Plura] The boys of the NYPD Choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas Day [Vers 5: V�xlande] ''You're a bum, you're a punk'' ''You're an old slut on junk Lying there almost dead On a drip in the bed'' ''You scumbag, you maggot You cheap lousy faggot Happy Christmas, your arse I pray God it's our last'' [Refr�ng: H�kan och Plura] The boys of the NYPD Choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas Day [Vers 6: V�xlande] ''I could have been someone'' ''Well, so could anyone You took my dreams from me When I first found you'' ''I kept them with me babe I kept them with my arms Can't make it all alone I've built my dreams around you!'' [Refr�ng: H�kan och Plura] The boys of the NYPD Choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas Day
