Bright Blue Tie Lyrics

On my first day in town we saw the king

He was dressed in a suit with a bright blue tie

And it matched his eyes

And when ours met, I sighed



Took a boat or a ferry to an island

There were gardens and trees

And balloons in the sky

And we knew it was right

It wasn't only the light



Rode our bikes up and down the streets so wide

Don't lock 'em up, no, they'll be just fine

And I said

"Oh my, my

I can't believe it!,"

I cried



This must be paradise

But it's not, no, no, no, no

But it's sweet, sweet, sweet

Sweet, sweet, oh Sweden



Had a breakfast of cheese

Yogurt, too

All this fat, but you're so skinny to boot

You said it's in my genes

Yeah, we're so skinny, we're mean



Took the train everyday from your suburb, yeah right

Only ten minutes and we're south centre tonight

And we don't have to pay

We sneak in free everyday



Schnapps on the house at the bars you like

Your friends stand in line and practice English all night

And I like them, they're nice

All so blonde and precise



This must be paradise

Oh it's not, no, no, no, no

But it's sweet, sweet, sweet

Sweet, sweet, oh Sweden
