[00:09.10]Oh what a circus, oh what a show
[00:13.21]Argentina has gone to town
[00:16.66]Over the death of an actress called Eva Peron
[00:21.70]We've all gone crazy
[00:24.77]Mourning all day and mourning all night
[00:28.10]Falling over ourselves to get all of the misery right
[00:36.26]Oh what an exit, that's how to go
[00:41.01]When they're ringing your curtain down
[00:44.53]Demand to be buried like Eva Peron
[00:49.38]It's quite a sunset
[00:52.18]And good for the country in a roundabout way
[00:55.76]We've made the front page of all the world's papers today
[01:03.37]But who is this Santa Evita?
[01:06.58]Why all this howling, hysterical sorrow?
[01:10.12]What kind of goddess has lived among us?
[01:13.69]How will we ever get by without her?
[01:20.76]She had her moments, she had some style
[01:25.70]The best show in town was the crowd
[01:28.55]Outside the Casa Rosada crying, "Eva Peron"
[01:33.49]But that's all gone now
[01:36.38]As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
[01:39.81]We're all gonna see and how
[01:44.24]She did nothing for years
[01:47.98]Salve regina mater misericordiae
[01:52.96]Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
[01:56.70]Salve salve regina
[02:01.08]Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
[02:07.64]Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
[02:12.05]O clemens o pia
[02:14.99]You let down your people Evita
[02:17.98]You were supposed to have been immortal
[02:21.61]That's all they wanted, not much to ask for
[02:25.32]But in the end you could not deliver
[02:31.49]Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
[02:33.88]Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
[02:36.22]Your queen is dead, your king is through
[02:38.46]And she's not coming back to you
[02:42.24]Show business kept us all alive
[02:44.41]Since seventeen October 1945
[02:46.59]But the star has gone, the glamour's worn thin
[02:49.14]That's a pretty bad state for a state to be in
[02:52.70]Instead of government we had a stage
[02:54.93]Instead of ideas, a prima donna's rage
[02:57.19]Instead of help we were given a crowd
[02:59.60]She didn't say much, but she said it loud
[03:03.17]Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
[03:05.38]Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
[03:07.68]Your queen is dead, your king is through
[03:09.99]And she's not coming back to you
[03:17.74]Salve regina mater misericordiae
[03:25.69]Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
[03:32.42]Salve salve regina
[03:39.09]Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
[03:51.01]Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
[03:59.77]O clemens o pia
[04:05.41]
[04:56.14]Don't cry for me Argentina
[05:00.54]For I am ordinary, unimportant
[05:05.79]And undeserving of such attention
[05:11.09]Unless we all are, I think we all are
[05:16.43]So share my glory, so share my coffin
[05:24.73]So share my glory, so share my coffin
[05:37.00]It's our funeral too
[05:44.89]
