Live at Facshing help - swedish speakers

Hi folks,
I've been listening again to the Live songs from Stina's Fasching gig (
link here, and I noticed that at the end of each of the (mp3) tracks, there's a brief introduction to the next song.
Particularly at the end of 'I'll be Crying for you' (where Stina introduces 'Why don't we do it together'), and at the end of the WDWDIT, at the end of 'Soon after Christmas', I'd love to know what she's saying. Some of it elicits laughs from the audience... and I'm dying to know what's so funny.
Any Swedish-speakers out there that can help? (I couldn't find any other thread dealing with this, maybe there is one...
) Thanks!

HIS SONG
"Thankyou.You are so nice to me.The next song that we're going to play is called "I'll be crying for you".
I'LL BE CRYING FOR YOU.
"Now Mats is going to play the electric guitar again.He thinks that looks cooler.This song is called "Why dont we do it together?".Answer that one if you can.Why dont we do it together?What?Really,what is it that we dont do together?Its about a girl,who once upon a time met a guy.They were pretty young then.They were sitting down at a party,and he said that he was going home,or perhaps she said that,anyway,the other one said "but I'm going too,why can't we go together?.Then there is a solo in the song,and then its like ten years after,ten years later.At that time ,unfortunately,they've got a rather dull life together.But it might not always end up that way.What do you think.Why dont we do it together?".
WHY DONT WE DO IT TOGETHER?
"Thankyou! Hey...boys ,men,musicians...you're playing unbelievably beautifully,and I love you and stuff,but in spite of that,you'll have to leave the stage now.This song ,which I'm going to play now,is called Soon after Christmas.Its strictly autobiographical and rather sad.Dont laugh at me!Its probably about,no not probably,it is about love and its sad.I don't understand why all the songs that I write are about love and are sad.Its not intentionally , really.I will try to go to a health resort or something."
SOON AFTER CHRISTMAS
"Thankyou! Now we're going to play a song thats called The Miracle,The Miracle. Its about a girl who was born in the beginning of the 18th century,I believe.It was rather strange.She was actually born with wings.And...I was'nt there then,but Charlie Chaplin was'nt there either,but he got to hear about it,and he was going to do a film about it , called *THE FREAK*.But then he died,before he got the time to do that film.But now I've made a song about it.The Miracle."
THE MIRACLE

Anorak edit-the guitarist is called MAX.(Max Schultz).Credit where it's due.
I've just been transcribing the lyrics for 'Miracle' and 'Why don't we'.Anyone else had a go?
