lyrics

Oh I dedicate to you every girl-group song,
every doo-wop song,
anything "moody" or "soulfoul",
anything "swinging", anything "groovy",
the sound of being young, the sound of being in an out of love (and fool!)
the sound of being sixteen (but you´rere not!)
if only you could hold my hand,
only if you´d hold my hand!

Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!

Ru Ru I´d love to but you never seem to care
you always play it cool and this fact I just can't bear.
I don't even recall if we kissed before
or after the Beatles´ song
and I don't remember our ride back home
but I do remember being inside of you,
it felt like heaven, that expression on your face
keeps bringing spring into my step
but you're the wild kind I bet
confusion´s all I ever get.

Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!

Ru Ru I´d love to, I get high every time we talk
I wanna squeeze and kiss you, I love the way you walk
( but how does he look like?) well, he is pencil-slim,
(aha!) not exactly gorgeous but cute as a boy can be,
(mmm...) he does the shake like no-one does,
(wow!) I wish he would take me out to dance!
he's so smart, he is well-red and knows tons about music (cool!)
and yeah, he is kind of dirty in bed (mmm!)
if I could be in his head
if I could make him understand that...

Oh Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!

oh darling our story is all ups and downs,
one minute I'm on fire
next minute you give me the cold shower,
I can never make you stay
nothing but a heartache every day,

Ru Ru I´d love to but you never seem to care
you always play it cool and this fact I just can't bear
you said that we had to stop
I said no, we had not even started
my romantic dreams all gone down the drain
but don't expect from me to cry in the rain.
A good and faithful friend of yours I can always stay. someone just to write music to
one last time I´m telling you, you´ll never ever see me sad and blue.


Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! I want a boy like you!
Ru Ru Ru Ru Ru! Oh I´d love to! Oh I´d love to!
Oh I´d love to, pity it won´t be you,
still I dedicate to you every girl-group song,
every doo-wop song.

about

Evripidis and his Tragedies Barcelona, Spain

Evripidis and His Tragedies is Evripidis Sabatis. The "Tragedies" are the devastating, confessional, self-sarcastic, darkly humorous songs that draw on his classical piano training, queer sensibility and storytelling skills to examine and own up to the vicissitudes of life. Evripidis' pop inclinations take us for a bumpy, dancey ride across the fine line between tragedy and joie de vivre. ... more
