Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand,
Jack is in his corset, and Jane is in her vest, and, me,
I'm in a rock'n'roll band.
Ridin' in a Stutz-Bearcat, Jim
Y'know, those were different times!
Oh, all the poet, they studied rules of verse,
And the ladies, they rolled their eyes.
Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane!
Jack, he is a banker,
And Jane, she is a clerk.
Both of them save their monies,
And when, when they come home from work!
Ooh! Sittin' down by the fire, oh!
The radio just play,
The classical music there, Jim.
"The March of the Wooden Soldiers".
And you can hear Jack say, get ready, ah,
Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane! Oh! Sweet Jane!
Some people, they like to go out dancing,
And other peoples, they have to work.
And there's even some evil mothers,
They're gonna tell you that everything is just dirt.
Y'know that, women, never really faint,
And that villains always blink their eye
We know children are the only ones who blush!
And life is, just to die!
I Sugarcubes sono stati un gruppo musicale alternativo rock islandese attivo dal 1986 al 1992. Fondati a Reykjavík, il gruppo era guidato dalla cantante e compositrice Björk, che si distinse per la sua voce eterea e le performance teatrali. La band ha raggiunto una certa popolarità internazionale grazie all'album "Life's Too Good" (1988), che includeva il singolo di successo "Birthday". Il loro sound era caratterizzato da un mix di rock alternativo, synthpop e elementi sperimentali, con testi spesso ironici e surrealistici. Dopo la disgregazione dei Sugarcubes nel 1992, Björk ha intrapreso una carriera solista di grande successo. Tra i brani più rappresentativi dei Sugarcubes ricordiamo "Birthday", "Deus Ex Machina", "Hold On To Your Dreams" e "Stick Around".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
