CHE (To MAGALDI)
Goodnight and thank you Magaldi
You've completed your task, what more could we ask
Of you now?
Please sign the book on your way out the door
That will be all
If we need you we'll call
But I don't think that's likely somehow
EVA
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
The parting, the closing of doors
But we must be honest, stop fooling ourselves
CHE
Which means--up yours!
CHE and MAGALDI
There is no-one, no-one at all
Never has been and never will be a lover
Male or female
Who hasn't an eye on
In fact they rely on
Tricks they can try on
Their partner
They're hoping their lover will help them or keep them
Support them, promote them
Don't blame them
You're the same
CHE (To EVA's FIRST LOVER)
Goodnight and thank you whoever
She's in every magazine, been photographed, seen
She is known
We don't like to rush but your case has been packed
If we've missed anything
You could give us a ring
But we don't always answer the phone
EVA
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
But when we were hot we were hot
I know you'll look back on the good times we've shared
CHE
But Eva will not!
CHE, EVA, MAGALDI, EVA's FIRST LOVER
There is no-one, no-one at all
Never has been and never will be a lover
Male or female
Who hasn't an eye on
In fact they rely on
Tricks they can try on
Their partner
They're hoping their lover will help them or keep them
Support them, promote them
Don't blame them, you're the same
CHE (To EVA's SECOND LOVER)
Goodnight and thank you whoever
We are grateful you found her a spot on the sound
radio
We'll think of you every time she's on the air
We'd love you to stay
But you'd be in the way
So do up your trousers and go
EVA
Of but it's sad when a love affair dies
The decline into silence and doubt
Our passion was just too intense to survive
CHE
For God's sake get out!
(By now a fairly long line of EVA's rejected LOVERS
has formed)
LOVERS
Oh but this line's an embarrassing sight
Someone has made us look fools
Argentine men call the sexual shots
Someone has altered the rules
CHE
Fame on the wireless as far as it goes
Is all very well, but every girl knows
She needs a man she can monopolize
With fingers in dozens of different pies-
LOVERS
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
