Evita Soundtrack Miscellaneous The Lady's Got Potential (Five members of the G.O.U., a right-wing grouping of officers within the military government that seized power in Argentina in 1943, including Colonel Juan PERON, are seen moving slowly back and forth in rocking chairs. During this sequence, every time the music stops, the officers rise and one chair is removed. By the end of the scene there is just on chair left, occupied by PERON.) CHE In June of 43 there was a military coup Behind it was a gang called the G.O.U. Who did not feel the need to be elected They had themselves a party at the point of a gun They were slightly to the right of Attila the Hun A bomb or two and very few objected Just one shell and governments fall like flies Ka-pow, Die They stubble and fall Bye bye Backs to the wall Aim high We're having a ball The tank and bullet ruled as democracy dies The lady's got potential She was setting her sights Of making it in movies With her name in lights The greatest social climber Since Cinderella Okay she couldn't act But she had the right friends And we all know a career depends On knowing the right fella to be stellar. Just one shell and governments lose their nerve Ka-pow, Die They stubble and fall Bye, bye Backs to the wall Aim high We're having a ball That's how we get the government we deserve Now the man behind the president Calling the shots Involved so discreetly in a lot of their plots was Colonel Juan Peron would-be dictator He began in the army out in Italy so Saw Mussolini's rise from the very front row I reckon he'd do likewise sooner or later Just one blast and the tear gas falls like rain Ka-pow, Die They haven't a chance Bye bye The terrorists advance But one guy Doesn't dirty his hands Peron was biding time out in the slow lane. Suddenly a earthquake hit the town of San Juan Ka-pow, Die They stubble and fall Bye bye Keep away from the wall But one guy Was having a ball The tragedy a golden chance for Peron He organized a concert with incredible flair He named off all the victims such a grand affair Politicians, actors, stars of every flavor It was January 22, 1944 A night to remember yeah that's for sure For that's the night that Peron first met Eva For that's the night that Peron first met Eva. |
