I Am An A
(fältskog/ lyngstad/ andersson/ ulvaeus)


FRIDA:
I'm Frida, hello!
I'm the star of the show
AGNETHA: That's what she thinks anyway
And I like to perform
Benny says I am warm
BENNY: Well, hot is the least you can say
Independent and free
and ambitious, that's me
fighting for fame and success
and I'm tough too, you see
BENNY: No she's not, just ask me
Singing and dancing
is what like best


Agnetha & Frida: I am an A
Björn & Benny: I am an B
Agnetha & Frida: He is okay
Björn & Benny: So is she
ABBA: Singing together in harmony
Agnetha & Frida: He is a B
Björn & Benny: She's a bird
Agnetha & Frida: Fiddle-dee-dee
Björn & Benny: Yes you heard
ABBA:We are a simple four letter word
A-B-B-A

BJÖRN:
I'm Björn, I'm the guy
who is careful and shy
don't like to spend every dime
But I love my guitar
and I drive in my car
AGNETHA: Scares me to death every time
And I don't like to shave
AGNETHA: You should live in a cave
No, I feel more at home on the stage
When I sing and I play
with my group it's okay
Agnetha/Frida/Benny: You're group? You're kidding?
or is it your age?

Agnetha & Frida: I am an A
Björn & Benny: I am an B
Agnetha & Frida: He is okay
Björn & Benny: So is she
ABBA: Singing together in harmony
Agnetha & Frida: He is a B
Björn & Benny: She's a bird
Agnetha & Frida: Fiddle-dee-dee
Björn & Benny: Yes you heard
ABBA:We are a simple four letter word
A-B-B-A
Two and two together make four
every song opens a door
AGNETHA I am an A
BJÖRN: I am a B
BENNY: I am a B
FRIDA: I am an A

AGNETHA:
I'm Agnetha, hello
I'm the young one you know
FRIDA: And she never lets me forget
I am gentle and mild
underneath it I'm wild
BJÖRN: Craziest woman I've met
I'm romantic they say
but it's not quite that way
I'm down to earth, yes indeed
And I like early nights
so I turn off the lights
BJÖRN: And I never get any chances to read

Agnetha & Frida: I am an A
Björn & Benny: I am an B
Agnetha & Frida: He is okay
Björn & Benny: So is she
ABBA: Singing together in harmony
Agnetha & Frida: He is a B
Björn & Benny: She's a bird
Agnetha & Frida: Fiddle-dee-dee
Björn & Benny: Yes you heard
ABBA:We are a simple four letter word
A-B-B-A

BENNY:
I'm Benny at last
and I'm living quite fast
I like to travel and see
I can play day and night
if the feeling's all right
FRIDA: And it's sometimes a problem for me
I can play 'In The Mood'
I like wine, I like food
BJÖRN: Now that's something he just can't deny
But I'm the talented one
with a place in the sun
Agnetha/Frida/Björn: When he's not bragging
He's quite a nice guy

Agnetha & Frida: I am an A
Björn & Benny: I am an B
Agnetha & Frida: He is okay
Björn & Benny: So is she
ABBA: Singing together in harmony
Agnetha & Frida: I am an A
Björn & Benny: I am an B
Agnetha & Frida: He is okay
Björn & Benny: So is she
ABBA: Singing together in harmony
Agnetha & Frida: He is a B
Björn & Benny: She's a bird
Agnetha & Frida: Fiddle-dee-dee
Björn & Benny: Yes you heard
ABBA:We are a simple four letter word
A-B-B-A #abba2shay #abba
