Ring Ring

Estava eu a ouvir o meu grupo favorito, os Abba, em altos gritos, apareceu o “Ring Ring”. Lembrei-me, que me dizem incessantemente para eu telefonar ao amor da minha vida, pois, claro, com certeza, hmmmmm, está bem, ok, é isso, mas não consigo! Podem chamar-me de tudo, sou assim, e pronto. Para atenuar, fica aqui a letra desta canção, é de 1973, tem mais 5 anos do que ela, mas não é para gozar com ela, está bem? Entenderam? Houve até uma versão alemã desta canção, cuja letra deixo aqui também, que no fim diz: Telefona, telefona, se não, é o fim! Vamos lá a ver......

Ring Ring

I was sitting by the phone
I was waiting all alone
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you
It's a dark and dreary night
Seems like nothing's going right
Won't you tell me honey how can I go on here without you?
Yes I'm down and feeling blue
And I don't know what to do, oh-oh

Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?

You were here and now you're gone
Hey did I do something wrong?
I just can't believe that I could be so badly mistaken
Was it me or was it you?
Tell me, are we really through?
Won't you hear me cry and you will know that my heart is breaking
Please forgive and then forget
Or maybe darling better yet, oh-oh

Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won't you please understand the need in me
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
Oh-oh, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
So, ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?


Ring Ring (German version)

Ich bin ganz allein zu haus,
sowas hält doch keiner aus,
deine Eifersucht, die ist doch blöd
und albern und dumm nur!
Baby, treib es nicht zu weit,
immer wieder machst du Streit,
kannst du mir mal sagen, du,
wieso, weshalb und warum nur?
Auch bei mir reißt mal der Draht,
häng dich an den Apparat -

Ring ring
sechzehn-null-sieben-null-drei
Ring ring
telefonier’, es ist frei.
Ring ring
sonst ist es aus und vorbrei.
Geh doch endlich mal ran ans Telefon,
sag doch endlich: Komm an, ich warte schon,
Ring ring
sechzehn-null-sieben-null-drei,
Ring ring -
sonst ist es aus und vorbrei!

Sag mir nicht, dir fehlt die Zeit
oder die Gelegenheit,
denn es gibt hier doch
an jeder Straßenecke eine Zelle.
Sag mir nicht, daß es nicht paßt,
weil du keine Groschen hast,
denn in jeder Post
in jeder Bank ist eine Wechselstelle.
Auch bei mir reißt mal der Draht,
häng dich an den Apparat -

Ring ring
sechzehn-null-sieben-null-drei
Ring ring
telefonier’, es ist frei.
Ring ring
sonst ist es aus und vorbei.
Geh doch endlich mal ran ans Telefon,
sag doch endlich: Komm an, ich warte schon,
Ring ring
sechzehn-null-sieben-null-drei,
Ring ring -
sonst ist es aus und vorbei!
Ring ring
sechzehn-null-sieben-null-drei,
Ring ring -
sonst ist es aus und vorbei!
