Lyrics for Song: Elaine
Lyrics for Album: Thank You for the Music [1994]
You hate, you scream, you swear
And still you never reach him
You curse, you try to scare
But you can never teach him
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You know they're gonna get you
You try to break away
But they will never let you
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind, they'll take your soul
You come, you stay, you go
It really doesn't matter
You've done it all before
By now they'll know the pattern
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind, they'll take your soul
Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you
Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you
It's a dead end street
They tie your hands and tie your feet
And the street is narrow
A nowhere lane
A nowhere train for Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
You're like a goldfish in a bowl
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine
They have your mind, they'll take your soul
Now that you're gone, you know they're gonna get you
Now that you're gone, you know they'll never let you

ABBA's "Elaine" stands as a quintessential example of the Swedish group's melodic pop craftsmanship, released on the 1994 compilation "Thank You for the Music." The track showcases the band's signature blend of lush orchestration and catchy hooks, characteristic of their late-career output. While often associated with their earlier disco-influenced era, the song retains the emotional depth and vocal harmony that defined their catalog. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of ABBA's enduring appeal, capturing the essence of their work during a period when they were revisiting their classic material for new audiences. The recording exemplifies the polished production style that made them global icons, blending romantic themes with an upbeat rhythm that has ensured its place in their legacy. |
