The song Waltz in 2-3 by Karl S starts off with a solo from Miriam, where she repeats "pa-pa" eight times. Then, the others join in with "hum paa pa" for 16 repetitions. Following this, Pamela and the rest of the group sing "a-ma a-ma, a-ma-sa doo-sa" twice, followed by "a-ma-sa doo-sa da." This pattern repeats for a few more lines. The song then transitions into an orchestral interlude before returning to the same pattern as before.
The chorus incorporates a new set of lyrics: "a-ma-sa ra-ba-ka" repeated twice, followed by "a-ma-sa ba va." The song then transitions back to the previous pattern, with Miriam singing a solo and the rest of the group joining in.
The song concludes with a nasal voice section repeating "a ba ya coo ya poo a a ke ya" 15 times, followed by "a ba ya coo ya poo a ba" once. The song concludes with the group singing "a-ma a-ma, a-ma a-ma, a-ma a-ma do, a-ma ra, a-ma a-ma, a-ma a-ma towards the end."
Overall, the lyrics are quite repetitive and don't convey a clear message or story. Instead, the song relies heavily on its catchy beat and rhythm to captivate listeners.
