Evita - Buenos Aires (feat. Patti LuPone) lyrics

rate me

Eva:

What's new Buenos Aires?

I'm new, I wanna say I'm just a little stuck on you

You'll be on me too.

I get out here, Buenos Aires.

Stand back, you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me

Just a little touch of star quality.

Fill me up with your heat, with your noise

With your dirt, overdo me.

Let me dance to your beat, make it loud

Let it hurt, run it through me.

Don't hold back, you are certain to impress

Tell the driver this is where I'm staying.

Hello, Buenos Aires!

Get this, just look at me dressed up, somewhere to go

We'll put on a show.

Take me in at your flood, give me speed,

Give me lights, set me humming.

Shoot me up with your blood, wine me up

With your nights, watch me coming.

All I want is a whole lot of excess,

Tell the singer this is where I'm playing

Stand back, Buenos Aires

Because you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me

Just a little touch of star quality.

And if ever I go too far

It's because of the things you are

Beautiful town, I love you.

And if I need a moment's rest

Give your lover the very best

Real eiderdown and silence.

[Musical Interlude]

You're a tramp, you're a treat

You will shine to the death, you are shoddy.

But you're flesh, you are meat

You shall have every breath in my body.

Put me down for a lifetime of success

Give me credit, I'll find ways of paying.

Rio de la Plata,

Florida, Corrientes, Nueve de Julio

All I want to know.

Stand back, Buenos Aires,

Because you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me

Just a little touch of

Just a little touch of

Just a little touch of star quality!
