Song by Jonathan Pryce<br /><br>

[Eva:]<br>

Just listen to that, the voice of Argentina<br>

We are adored, we are loved<br>

<br>

[Officer:]<br>

Statesmanship is more than entertaining peasants<br>

<br>

[Eva's sister:]<br>

We shall see little man<br>

<br>

[Crowd:]<br>

Evita Peron, La Santa Peronista ... <br>

<br>

[Eva:]<br>

I am only a simple woman<br>

Who lives to serve Peron in his noble crusade <br>

To rescue his people<br>

I was once as you are now, and I promise you this<br>

We will take the riches from the obligarchs<br>

Only for you, for all of you<br>

And one day, you too will inherit these treasures<br>

Descamisados, mis companeros<br>

When they fire those cannons, when the crowds sing of glory<br>

It is not just for Peron, but for all of us, for all of us<br>

<br>

[Aristocrats:]<br>

Things have reached a pretty pass<br>

When someone pretty lower-class<br>

Can be respected and admired<br>

<br>

[Aristocrat:]<br>

But our privileged class is dead<br>

Look who they are calling for now<br>

<br>
