Rainbow tour

Rainbow tour
 
Радужный тур

[Peron:]
People of Europe,
I send you the Rainbow of Argentina

[Che:]
Spain has fallen to the charms of Evita
She can do what she likes,
It doesn't matter much

[Aide #1:]
She's our lady of the new world
With a golden touch

[Aide #2:]
She filled a bull-ring,
Forty-five thousand seater

[Che:]
But if you're prettier than General Franco,
That's not hard

[Aide #1:]
Franco's reign in Spain
Should see out the forties
So you've just acquired an ally who
Looks as secure in his job as you

[Aide #2:]
But more important current political thought is
Your wife's a phenomenal asset,
Your trump card

[Peron and Aides:]
Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure,
We had a few doubts…

[Peron:] Will Evita win through?
[Aides:] But the answer is yes

[Peron:]
There you are, I told you so
Makes no difference where she goes
The whole world over just the same
Just listen to them call her name
And who would underestimate the actress now?

[Che:]
Now I don't like to spoil a wonderful story
But the news from Rome isn't quite as good
She hasn't gone down

Like they thought she would
Italy's unconvinced by Argentine glory,
They equate Peron with Mussolini,
Can't think why.

[Eva:]
Did you hear that?
They called me a [bad word] #33;
They actually called me a [bad word] #33;

[Italian admiral:]
But Signora Peron it's an easy mistake
I'm still called an admiral
Yet I gave up the sea long ago

[Aide #2:]
More bad news from Rome;
She met with the Pope
She only got a rosary, a kindly word

[Che:]
I wouldn't say the Holy Father gave her the bird,
But papal decorations, never a hope.

[Aide #1:]
She still looked the part at St. Peter's,
Caught the eye

[Peron and Aides:]
Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success,
We weren't quite sure,
We had a few doubts…

[Peron:] Will Evita win through?
[Aides:] But the answer is ...
[Che:] qualified
[Aides:] Yes

[Che:]
Eva started well, no question, in France
Shining like a sun through the post-war haze
beautiful reminder of the care-free days
She nearly captured the French,
She sure had the chance
But she suddenly seemed to lose interest
She looked tired.

[Che:]
Face the facts, the Rainbow's starting to fade
I don't think she'll make it to England now

[Aide #1:]
It wasn't on the schedule anyhow

[Che:]
You'd better get out the flags and fix a parade
Some kind of coming home in triumph is required

[Peron and Aides:]
Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success,
We weren't quite sure,
We had a few doubts…

[Aide #2:] Would Evita win through?

[Aide #1:] And the answer is…

[Aide #2:] Yes
[Che:] And no
[Aides:] And yes

[Che:] And no
[Aides:] And yes
[Che:] No

[Peron and Aides:]
Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure,
We had a few doubts…

[Aides:]
Would Evita win through?
But the answer is…

[Aide #2:] Yes
[Aide #1:] Yes
[Aide #2:] Yes
 

[Перон:]
Люди Европы,
Я посылаю вам Аргентинскую Радугу.

[Че:]
Испания пала под чарами Эвиты,
Она может делать то, что ей нравится,
Это не имеет значения.

[Помощник 1:]
Она — наша леди нового мира
С золотым прикосновением.

[Помощник 2:]
Она собрала арену
На сорок пять тысяч мест.

[Че:]
Но если вы симпатичнее Генерала Франко,
Это не сложно.

[Помощник 1:]
Господство Франко в Испании
Увидит сороковые,
Таким образом, вы только что приобрели союзника,
Чьи взгляды так сх
