1
Oh, what a circus, oh what a show
2
Argentina has gone to town
3
Over the death of an actress called Eva Peron
4
We've all gone crazy
5
Mourning all day and mourning all night
6
Falling over ourselves to get all of the misery right
7
Oh, what an exit, that's how to go
8
When they're ringing your curtain down
9
Demand to be buried like Eva Peron
10
It's quite a sunset
11
And good for the country in a roundabout way
12
We've made the front page of all the world's papers today
13
But who is this Santa Evita?
14
Why all this howling, hysterical sorrow?
15
What kind of goddess has lived among us?
16
How will we ever get by without her?
17
She had her moments, she had some style
18
The best show in town was the crowd
19
Outside the Casa Rosada crying, "Eva Peron"
20
But that's all gone now
21
As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
22
We're all gonna see and how she did nothing for years
23
Salve regina mater misericordiae
24
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
25
Salve salve regina
26
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
27
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
28
O clemens o pia
29
You let down your people, Evita
30
You were supposed to have been immortal
31
That's all they wanted, not much to ask for
32
But in the end you could not deliver
33
Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
34
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
35
Your queen is dead, your king is through
36
And she's not coming back to you
37
Show business kept us all alive
38
Since seventeen October 1945
39
But the star has gone, the glamour's worn thin
40
That's a pretty bad state for a state to be in
41
Instead of government we had a stage
42
Instead of ideas, a prima donna's rage
43
Instead of help we were given a crowd
44
She didn't say much but she said it loud
45
Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
46
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
47
Your queen is dead, your king is through
48
She's not coming back to you
49
Salve regina mater misericordiae
50
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
51
Salve salve regina Peron
52
Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
53
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
54
O clemens o pia
55
Don't cry for me, Argentina
56
For I am ordinary, unimportant
57
And undeserving of such attention
58
Unless we all are, I think we all are
59
So share my glory, so share my coffin
60
So share my glory, so share my coffin
61
It's our funeral too
