from the songs album Evita Soundtrack (Part 1)
Che: At the watering holes
Of the well to do
I detect a resistance to
English: Precisely
Che: Our heroine's style
English: We're glad you noticed
Che: The shooting sticks
Of the upper class
English: Give her an inch
Che: Aren't supporting a single ass
That would rise for the girl
English: She'll take a mile
Such a shame she wandered
Into our enclosure
How unfortunate this person
Has forced us to be blunt
No we wouldn't mind
Seeing her at Harrod's
But behind the jewelry counter
Not in front
Che: Could there be
In our fighting corps
A lack of enthusiasm for
Troops: Exactly
Che: Peron's latest flame
Troops: You said it brother
Che: Should you wish
To cause great distress
In the tidiest officer's mess
Just mention her name
Troops: That isn't funny
Peron is a fool
Breaking every taboo
Installing the girl in the Army H.Q.
And she's an actress the last straw
Her only good parts are between her thighs
She should stare at the ceiling not reach for the skies
Or she could be his last whore
The evidence suggests
She has other interests
If it's her who's using him
He's exceptionally dim
Bitch
Dangerous jade
English: We have allowed ourselves to slip
We have completely lost our grip
We have declined to an all time low
Tarts have become the set to know
Eva: I am only a radio star with just one weekly show
But speaking as one of the people I want you to know
We are tired of the decline of Argentina with no sign of
A government able to give us the things we deserve
Troops: It's no crime for officers to do as they please
As long as they're discreet and keep clear of disease
We ignore we disregard
But once they allow a bit on the side
To move to the center where she's not qualified
We are forced to mark his card
She should get into her head
She should not get out of bed
She should know that she's not paid
To be loud but to be laid
Slut
Dangerous jade
Che: This has really been your year Miss Duarte
Tell us where you go from here Miss Duarte
Which are the roles that you yearn to play
Whom did you sleep-dine with yesterday
Eva: Acting is limiting the lines not mine
That's no help to the Argentine
Che: Can we assume then that you'll quit
Is this because of your involvement with Colonel Peron
Guards: Goodnight and thank you
Troops: She won't be kept happy by her nights on the tiles
She says it's his money but she's after his files
So get back onto the street
She should get into her head
She should not get out of bed
She should know that she's not paid
To be loud but to be laid
The evidence suggests
She has other interests
If it's her who's using him
He's exceptionally dim
English: Things have reached a pretty pass
When someone pretty lower class
Graceless and vulgar uninspired
Can be accepted and admired
