Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! In Trondheim, the steam rises up, At Nidar, another pop can be heard. A shadow dances in the lamplight, Who is whispering here? [chorus] Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Pop, pop, pop – don't stop! Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Stay in there! We're going to win! Little bangs! Big dreams! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! [verse] At a trade fair in Germany, Holmsen got an idea, At Nidar, he wanted to see what might happen. The pipes are hissing, the pressure is rising, A bubble gives way with a pop! [chorus] Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Pop, pop, pop – don't stop! Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Stay in there! We're going to win! Little bangs! Big dreams! Explosions in the chocolate! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! [verse] Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! Another experiment ends with a bang, But Holmsen tries again anyway! One more time! One more time! [verse] One final hiss, then everything goes quiet, One bubble remains – dare we believe? One more! Now there are two! Look! They're staying – can you believe it? [chorus] Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Pop, pop, pop – don't stop! Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Stay in there! We're going to win! Little bangs! Big dreams! Look, the bubbles are staying! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! [verse] Who laughed inside the bowl? Just air inside the pipes... Look inside the piece, see what we found: Air inside the chocolate – it's true! One bubble! And another! Now they're staying, one by one! Stratos... [chorus] Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Pop, pop, pop – don't stop! Air bubbles! Air bubbles! Look! They're staying! Look! They're staying! Little bangs! Big dreams! Explosions in the chocolate! Nineteen thirty-six! Stratos goes on sale! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom! Bu-lo-bu, bu-lo-bom!
