Evita (Musical)
People of Europe!
I send you the Rainbow of Argentina!
Spain has fallen to the charms of Evita
She can do what she likes--it doesn't matter much
She's our Lady of the New World with the golden touch
She filled a bull-ring--forty-five thousand seater
But if you're prettier than General Franco That's not hard
Franco's reign in Spain should see out the forties
So you've just acquired an ally who Who looks as secure in his job as you
More important, current political thought is
Your wife's a phenomenal asset Your trump card
Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
Would Evita win through?
But the answer is yes!
There you are, I told you so Makes no difference where she go
The whole world over--just the same
Just listen to them call her name
And who would underestimate the actress now?
Now I don't like to spoil a wonderful story
But the news from Rome isn't quite as good
She hasn't gone down like we thought she would
Italy's unconvinced by Argentine glory
They equate Peron with Mussolini Can't think why
Did you here that?
They called me a whore!
They actually called me a whore!
But Signora Peron
It's an easy mistake
I'm still called an admiral
Yet I gave up the sea long ago
More bad news from Rome she met with the Pope
She only got a rosary, a kindly word
I wouldn't say the Holy father gave her the bird
But papal decoration's never a hope
She still looked the part at St. Peter's Caught the eye
Let's here it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
Would Evita win through?
But the answer is
A qualified Yes!
Eva started well, no question, in France
Shining like the sun through the post-war haze
A beautiful reminder of the carefree days
She nearly captured the French, she sure had the chance
But she suddenly seemed to lose interest She looked tired
Face the facts, the Rainbow's starting to fade
I don't think she'll make it to England now
It wasn't on the schedule anyhow
You'd better get out the flags and fix a parade
Some kind of coming home in triumph Is required
Let's here it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
Would Evita win through?
And the answer is
Yes
And no
And yes
And no
And yes...
No
Let's here it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
Would Evita win through?
And the answer is
yes. Yes. Yes?
