Eva Beware Of The City
4
(Eva:)
5
To think that a man as famous as you are
6
Could love a poor little nothing like me
7
Chorus:
8
(Eva:)
9
I wanna be a part of B.A.
10
Buenos Aires, Big Apple
11
(Eva's family:)
12
She wants to be a part of B.A.
13
Buenos Aires, Big Apple
14
(Che:)
15
Just listen to that, they're on to you Magaldi
16
I'd get out while you can
17
(Eva:)
18
It's happened at last, I'm starting to get started
19
I'm moving out with my man
20
(Magaldi:)
21
Now Eva don't get carried away
22
(Eva:)
23
Monotony past, suburbia departed
24
Who could ever be fond of the back of beyond?
25
(Magaldi:)
26
Don't hear words that I didn't say
27
(Eva's family:)
28
What's that? You'd desert the girl you love?
29
(Magaldi:)
30
The girl I love?
31
What are you talking about?
32
(Eva's family:)
33
She really brightened up your out-of-town engagement
34
She gave you all she had, she wasn't in your contract
35
You must be quite relieved that noone's told the papers, so far
36
(Eva:)
37
I wanna be a part of B.A.
38
Buenos Aires, Big Apple
39
Would I have done what I did
40
If I hadn't thought, if I hadn't known
41
We would stay together
42
(Eva's brother:)
43
Seems to me there's no point in resisting
44
She's made up her mind, you've no choice
45
Why don't you be the man who discovered her
46
You'll never be remembered for your voice
47
(Magaldi:)
48
The city can be paradise for those who have the cash
49
The class and the connections, what you need to make a splash
50
The likes of you get swept up in the morning with the trash
51
If you were rich or middle class ...
52
(Eva:)
53
Screw the middle classes! I will never accept them!
54
My father's other family were middle class
55
And we were kept out of sight, hidden from view at his funeral.
56
(Eva's brother:)
57
Do all your one night stands give you this trouble?
58
(Magaldi:)
59
Eva beware of the city
60
It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, it is mad
61
Those who are fools are swallowed up whole
62
And those who are not become what they should not become
63
Changed, in short, they go bad.
64
(Eva:)
65
Bad is good for me
66
I'm bored, so clean, and so ignored
67
I've only been predictable, respectable
68
Birds fly out of here, so why oh why oh why the hell can't I?
69
I only want variety, of society
70
(chorus)
71
(Magaldi:)
72
Five years from now I shall come back
73
And finally say, "You have your way, come to town."
74
But you'll look at me with a foreigner's eyes
75
The magical city, a younger girl's city
76
A fantasy long since put down
77
(Eva:)
78
All you've done to me, was that a young girl's fantasy?
79
I played your city games alright, didn't I?
80
I already know what cooks, how the dirty city feels and looks
81
I tasted it last night, didn't I?
82
I'm gonna be a part of B.A.
83
Buenos Aires, Big Apple
84
(Eva and family:)
85
She's gonna be a part of B.A.
86
Buenos Aires, Big Apple
87
(Magaldi:)
88
Eva beware your ambition
89
It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, will run wild
90
This in a man is danger enough, but you are a woman
91
Not even a woman, not very much more than a child
92
And whatever you say, I'll not steal you away
