Miss Saigon Soundtrack Miscellaneous What A Waste (A street filled with vendors in Patpong in Bangkok, outside a sleazy night-club called "Le Moulin Rouge" where the ENGINEER is doorman and barker. Other DOORMEN compete with him for the attention of crowds of TOURISTS.) ENGINEER check it out! DOORMEN girls! I got girls! DOORMEN gorgeous girls! DOORMEN very nice! TOURISTS hey, wow! Oh look!
