Don't you ever invite your boyfriend here
I like to be here alone
You just answer the door and feed the deer
And fight the telephone
Got to learn these words and I know you will
Or I'll send you right back to Guayaquil

Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home

Got to peel your eyes for the heat, my dear
You got to froth and foam
Got to send away the mad puppeteer
Who seems to think this is home
I want you to speak the English right
I want you to smile and be polite

Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home

I don't care if you drive my three fifty, honey
Don't let them steal my chrome
I don't care if you spend all my money, honey
Long as you leave me alone
I just want you to try and remember one thing
If somebody knocks or the telephone rings

Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home
Say b'wana she no home

Like sailing on a sailing ship to nowhere
Love took over my heart like an ocean breeze
As seagulls fly I knew that I was losing
Love was washed away with the drifting tide
Oh it's a dirty old shame when all you get from love is a love song
It's got you laying up nights waiting for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame when you've got to take the blame for a love song
Because the best love songs are written with a broken heart
Now the tears in my eyes are ever blinded
The future that lies before me, I cannot see
Although tomorrow I know the sun is rising
Lighting up the world for everyone but not for me
Oh it's a dirty old shame when all you get from love is a love song
It's got you laying up nights waiting for the music to start
It's such a dirty old shame when you've got to take the blame for a love song
Because the best love songs are written with a broken heart

. . .


Dreamin', I must be dreamin'
Or am I really lyin' here with you
Baby, you take me in your arms
And though I'm wide awake I know my dream is comin' true
And oh, I just fall in love again
Just one touch and then it happens every time
And there I go, I just fall in love again
And when I do
Can't help myself I fall in love with you
Magic, it must be magic
The way I hold you and the night just seems to fly
Easy for you to take me to a star
Heaven is that moment when I look into your eyes
And oh, I just fall in love again
Just one touch and then it happens every time
And there I go, I just fall in love again
And when I do
Can't help myself I fall in love with you

And oh, I just fall in love again
Just one touch and then it happens every time
And there I go, I just fall in love again
And when I do
Can't help myself I fall in love with you
Can't help myself I fall in love with you

ANNOUNCER:
People of Argenitna!
Your newly elected president, Juan Peron!

CROWD:
Peron! Peron!

PERSON:
Argentinos! Argentinos!
We are all leaders now!
Fighting against our common enemies
Poverty
Social Injustice
Foreign domination of our industries
Reaching for our common goals
Our independence
Our dignity
Our pride
Let the world know that our great nation is awakening
And that its heart
Beats in the humble bodies
Of Juan Peron
And his wife, the first lady of Argentina
Eva Duarte de Peron!

CROWD:
Peron! Peron!

CHE:
As a mere observer of this tasteless phenomenon
One has to admire the stage management
There again perhaps I'm more than a mere observer
Listen to my enthusiasm, gentlemen
Peron! Peron!

CROWD:
Evita! Evita!

You're always in my heart
From early in the mornin' till it's dark
I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile everyday
When I wake up in the mornin' and I see you there
I always whisper a little prayer
I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile everyday
I gotta know that you love me
And that you want me
And that you'll always be there
I gotta know that you care
And I gotta feel your arms around me
And that you need me
And you'll always be there
I gotta know that you care
If my times are bringin' me down
You're the only one that I want around
I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile everyday
And if I'm all strung out
You're the only one who can straighten me out
I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile everyday
I gotta know that you love me
And that you want me
And that you'll always be there
I gotta know that you care
And I gotta feel your arms around me
And that you need me
And you'll always be there
I gotta know that you care

You're always in my heart
From early in the mornin' till it's dark
I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile everyday
I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile everyday
I gotta see your sweet, sweet smile everyday

Well, there's two sides to every situation
Yes, there's two sides, two interpretations
A laugh is a cry, hello means goodbye
You're saying something, baby, I don't want to buy

Well, there's two sides to every creation
You and me, babe, we're no revelation
Well, there's darkness in our light, and there's wrong in our right
There's sorry, babe, I'm working late tonight

Well, there's two sides, there's another side of me
There's the one you think you live with, the one you never see
It's never really lived but it's never really died
It's never really made it but it's tried

Well, there's two sides to every conversation
But with you, babe, that's no consolation
Silence is golden, let me put you on hold
Dangling on your love line, baby, it's growing old

Well, I don't know how to say it
'Cause I never thought I could
God knows I've tried so many times

But there's two sides, there's another side of me
There's the one you think you live with, the one you never see
It's never really lived but it's never really died
It's never really made it but it's tried

[Well, there's two sides] to every creation
[You and me, babe,] we're no revelation
One sees the wrong, and one sees the right
The other side of me just caught a flight

Goodbye

Let us put man and woman together
And see which one is smarter
Some say man but I say no
The woman got the man like a puppet show

It ain't me, it's the people that say
The men are leading the women astray
But I say that the women today
Are smarter than men in every way

Well, that's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter

Little boy sat down and cried
An old man passing asked him why
He said I can't do what the big boys do
Old man sat down and he cried too

It ain't me, it's the people that say
The men are leading the women astray
But I say that the women today
Are smarter than men in every way

That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
(Wrong)

That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
Well, that's right, the women are smarter
Smarter than man in every way

Radio Jingle: All hit radio!

DJ: All right, you're listening to all hit radio and it's fifty three degrees, at thirteen minutes past the hour. And right now on our all request line I got Mike Ledgewood on the radio. Hey, babe, what would you like to hear?

Mike Ledgewood: We've been observing your earth.

DJ: Hey, babe, I'm sorry, I can't hear you too well. You're going to have to speak a little closer into the phone. Okay, babe, what would you like to hear again?

Mike Ledgewood: We are observing your earth.

DJ: Hey, Mike, I'm sorry, babe, but that's not on our play list. And by the way, you sound great over the phone. Anyway, if you'd give us your request we'll be glad to play it for you, babe, so let's hear it.

Mike Ledgewood: We are observing your earth.

DJ: Ah, listen, Mike, I'm sorry, babe, but we can't...

Mike Ledgewood: And we like to make...

DJ: I'm sorry, Mike, we... There's...

Mike Ledgewood: A contact....

DJ: Er...

Mike Ledgewood: With you... Baby.

In your mind you have capacities you know
To telepath messages through the vast unknown
Please close your eyes and concentrate with every thought you think
Upon the recitation we're about to sing

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft
Calling occupants of interplanetary, most extraordinary craft

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft
Calling occupants of interplanetary craft
Calling occupants of interplanetary, most extraordinary craft

You've been observing your earth
And we'd like to make contact with you

We are your friends

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft
Calling occupants of interplanetary, ultra emissaries

We've been observing your earth
And one night we'll make contact with you

We are your friends

Calling occupants of interplanetary, quite extraordinary craft

And please come in peace, we beseech you
Only our love we will teach them
Our earth may never survive
So do come, we beg you
Please, interstellar policeman
Oh, won't you give us a sign
Give us a sign that we've reached you?
Oh girl

With your mind you have ability to form
And transmit thought energy far beyond the norm
You close your eyes, you concentrate, together that's the way
To send the message we declare World Contact Day

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft
Calling occupants of interplanetary craft
Calling occupants of interplanetary, most extraordinary craft

Calling occupants
Calling occupants
Calling occupants of interplanetary, anti-adversary craft

We are your friends
