Lyrics

Jag kom gende en natt
Det var i utkanten av stan
Jag sg en skylt som ls i regnet
Det stod Club Zebra
Tv marschaller flmtade
Och drren den var svart och vit
En trappa ner i djupet till Club Zebra
Hett och rkigt, l och whisky
Flickor satt i kn
P unga mn som vlte sin glas
Och skrt och skrek
Bandet hadde redan spelat
Klockan var halv tre
Jag satte mig vid senen helt osynlig
Jag sg mig sjlv med anneli
Min arm runt hennes midja
Hon var varm som en kamin
Och alldeles ljuvlig
Vi kte vra tretti mil
Tre set p en kvll
Trehundra i ett vardagsrum
Och fest sen p ett motorhotell
Dimma ver stan, kriget har brjat
Lttare att va frmling
I frmmande land n hr Hennes hr r nnu blont av sommarens sol
En bild av henne i tidningen
Jag vet inte vem hon r Alla frlorade slagna utanfrvarelser
Gr genom grindarna ikvll
Dom bygger ett fort av snger och drmmar
Som Robin Hood och Blind Willie McTell
Du behver nn att lska
Du behver ngra vnner
Du behver nn att leva fr Du behver ntt att tro p Men det r ett land fullt av hedningar
Ett land utan sjl, och handen du trycker
Nr du skriver kontrakt r det klor p Drren har gtt i bakls igen
Du r utlst i ditt eget kvarter
Det ligger ett tempel p kullen i solen
Vill du dit fr du ta trappan ner
Sonny kliver genom spegeln och
Frsvinner, byter namn
Nu kan du se honom i svart och rosa
P Club Zebra
Sara har ett skepp i sjlen
Jolly Roger fladdrar, hon vill kapa
Alla cutters p Club Zebra
Winnifred och Babylon har ett hus
Dom vill vnda ut-och-in p Gameboy har rymt hemifrn
Han slr dvrat till och spottar
P vgger som Rimbaud -a

Lyrics translation

I came gende one night
It was on the outskirts of town
I sg A sign like ls in the rain
It said Club Zebra
Tv marching overalls flmted
And drren it was black and white
Downstairs to Club Zebra
Hot and Hot, L and whiskey
Girls sat in kn
P Young mn who vlte his glass
And screamed and screamed
The band hadde already played
It was half past three
I sat down at the tendon completely invisible
I saw myself with anneli
My arm around her waist
She was hot like a stove
And absolutely lovely
We got our thirty miles
Three sets p one kvll
Three hundred in a living room
And then party at a motorhotel
Fog over the city, the war has broken
Easier to be frmling
In faraway country her hr is still blond of the summer sun
A picture of her in the newspaper
I don't know who she's all lost beaten aliens
Gr through the gates ikvll
They're building a fort of snger and DRM
Like Robin Hood and Blind Willie McTell
You need to love
You need some friends
You need to live because you need to believe but it is a land full of Gentiles
A country without sjl, and the hand you press
When you sign a contract it's chlorine because the doctor's got back in bakls
You're in your own neighborhood
There is a temple on the hill in the sun
Do you want to go there fr you take the stairs down
Sonny steps through the mirror and
Disappears, renames
Now you can see him in black and pink
P Club Zebra
Sara has a ship in shlen
Jolly Roger flutters, she wants to hijack
All cutters p Club Zebra
Winnifred and Babylon have a house
They want to vnda out-and-in P Gameboy has escaped hemifrn
He slr dvrat to and spits
P vgger as Rimbaud-a
