MADONNA LYRICS - Peron's Latest Flame

"Peron's Latest Flame"



[Che:] At the watering holes of the well-to-do

I detect a resistance to

[Aristocrats:] Precisely

[Che:] Our heroine's style

[Aristocrats:] We're glad you noticed



[Che:] The shooting sticks of the upper-class

[Aristocrats:] Give her an inch

[Che:] Aren't supporting a single ass

That would rise for the girl

[Aristocrats:] She'll take a mile



[Aristocrats:]

Such a shame she wandered into our enclosure

How unfortunate this person has forced us to be blunt

No we wouldn't mind seeing her at Harrod's

But behind the jewelry counter, not in front



[Che:] Could there be in our fighting corps

A lack of enthusiasm for

[Army:] Exactly

[Che:] Peron's latest flame

[Army:] You said it brother



[Che:]

Should you wish to cause great distress

In the tidiest officer's mess

Just mention her name



[Army:]

That isn't funny



Peron is a fool, breaking every taboo

Installing a girl in the army H. Q.

And she's an actress, the last straw

Her only good parts are between her thighs

She should stare at the ceiling, not reach for the skies

Or she could be his last whore



The evidence suggests

She has other interests

If it's her who's using him

He's exceptionally dim

Bitch! Dangerous Jade



[Aristocrats:]

We have allowed ourselves to slip

We have completely lost our grip

We have declined to an all-time low

Tarts have become the set to know



[Eva:]

I am only a radio star with just one weekly show

But speaking as one of the people I want you to know

We are tired of the decline of Argentina

With no sign of a government able to give us the things we deserve



[Army:]

It's no crime for officers to do as they please

As long as they're discreet and keep clear of disease

We ignore, we disregard

But once they allow a bit on the side

To move to the center where she's not qualified

We are forced to mark his card



She should get into her head

She should not get out of bed

She should know that she's not paid

To be loud but to be laid

Slut! Dangerous Jade



[Che:]

This has really been your year, Miss Duarte

Tell us where you go from here, Miss Duarte

Which are the roles that you yearn to play?

Whom did you sleep... dine with yesterday?



[Eva:]

Acting is limiting, the line's not mine

That's no help to the Argentine



[Che:]

Can we assume then that you'll quit?

Is this because of your involvement with Colonel Peron?



[Heavies:]

Goodnight and thank you



[Army:]

She won't be kept happy by her nights on the tiles

She says it's his body, but she's after his files

So get back on to the street



She should get into her head

She should not get out of bed

She should know that she's not paid

To be loud but to be laid

The evidence suggests

She has other interests

If it's her who's using him

He's exceptionally dim



[Aristocrats:]

Things have reached a pretty pass

When someone pretty lower-class

Graceless and vulgar, uninspired

Can be accepted and admired
