The Lady's Got Potential |
In June of forty-three 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 Atilla the Hun |
A bomb or two and very few objected |
Yeah, just one shell and governments fall like flies, kapow, die |
They stumble and fall, bye bye |
Backs to the wall, aim high |
We’re having a ball |
The tank and bullet rule as democracy dies |
The lady’s got potential, she was setting her sights |
On making it in movies with her name in lights |
The greatest social climber since Cinderella |
OK, 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 |
Yeah, just one shell and governments lose their nerve, kapow, die |
They stumble 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 |
Yeah, just one blast and the tear gas falls like rain, kapow, 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 |
Yeah, suddenly an earthquake hit the town of San Juan, kapow, die |
They stumble 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 |
In aid of all the victims, such a grand affair |
Politicians, actors, stars of every flavor |
It was January twenty-second, 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 |
