MRS JOHNSTONE :
Oh bright new day, we're moving away
We're starting all over again
Oh bright new day
We're going away
Where nobody's heard of our name
Where we can begin again
Feel we can win and then
Live just like livin' should be
Got a new situation
A new destination
And no reputation following me
We're getting out
We're moving house
We're starting all over again
We're leaving this mess
For our new address
Sixty-five Skelmersdale Lane
The air is so pure
You get drunk just by breathing
And the washing stays clean on the line
Where there's space for the kids
The garden's so big
It would take you a week just to reach the far side
Just pack the bags, we're leaving the rags
The wobbly wardrobe,
Chest of drawers that never close
The two-legged chair, the carpet so bare
You wouldn't see it if it wasn't for the holes
Now that we're movin'
Now that we're improvin'
Let's just wash our hands of this lot
For it's no longer fitting for me to be sitting
On a sofa, I know for a fact, was knocked off
At the weekend a gentleman friend
Might take me dancin' to the local bands
We'll have a front room
And then if it should happen
That his holiness flies in from Rome
He can sit there with me eating toast, drinking tea
In the sort of surroundings that remind him of home
Oh bright new day,
We're movin' away
We're starting all over again
Oh bright new day
We're goin' away
Where nobody's heard of our name
Now we can begin again
Feel we can win an' then
Live just like livin' should be
Got a new situation
A new destination
And no repuation following me
CAST :
We're gettin' out, we're moving house
We're goin' away, gettin' out today
We're movin', movin', movin', movin', movin' house
We're goin' away
Oh bright new day

Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
