[Verse 1] Friday night and nowhere we had to be Warm American beer underneath the city Last train running, everybody in Someone says the Irish Pub, we're off again A couple marks between us, nowhere else to go Seventeen in Berlin, what did we know? [Pre-Chorus] No plans, no phones, no reason to know Just tell me where and tell me when to go [Chorus] Oskar at seven Don't be late We'll figure out the rest when everybody gets there Oskar at seven Friday night Last train home in the morning light We didn't know then what we'd never forget Just say the word— Oskar at seven [Verse 2] Döner after midnight, nowhere left to sit Riverboat, Sugar Shack, Club XTC Dancing till our legs gave out Toga bash weekend, what was that about? One night into another, nothing much was planned We had the whole of West Berlin in the palm of our hands [Pre-Chorus] No plans, no phones, no reason to know Just tell me where and tell me when to go [Chorus] Oskar at seven Don't be late We'll figure out the rest when everybody gets there Oskar at seven Friday night Last train home in the morning light We didn't know then what we'd never forget Just say the word— Oskar at seven [Bridge] There was a Wall at the edge of town Headlines talking Libya Army jeeps beside our school buses And somehow that was normal to us History was happening all around us But history could wait We had somewhere we had to be Somebody yelled— [Break] Oskar at seven! [Final Chorus] Oskar at seven Don't be late We'll figure out the rest when everybody gets there Oskar at seven Friday night Berlin in the morning light We didn't know then what we'd never forget All these years later I can see it yet Oskar at seven Oskar at seven We were young in Berlin Oskar at seven
