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
