act i - scene iii: the ministro's plan - san francisco camerata lyrics
[ministro]
it’s me
open the door!
is she ready?
[doctor]
not yet, i need more time
another day, please
[ministro]
are you out of your mind?
the crowd wants to see her now
and i’ll see to it that they do
isabel, our president, keeps her promises
we can’t wait any longer!
ah, look at her!
they will adore her
they will worship her
[to isabel’s portrait]
it was the right thing to do
i told her so
[to doctor]
and her hair too
[pointing at isabel’s portrait]
my isabel even looks like eva, doesn’t she?
doesn’t she!
[doctor]
eva wasn’t a blonde either
[ministro]
isabel will renew their hopes
they will respond to her
as they responded to eva in the old times
she will tell them
what they want to hear
she will give them
the old party line
i’ll make sure she does!
she will do as i tell her
she will not defy my powers!
(spoken)
open the doors! let the mourners in!
[doctor]
these are strange times
[corpus evita]
desperate, indeed
[doctor, corpus evita]
we all had such high hopes (my ideals)
for democracy (put fire in their bellies)
but when perón came back (made their souls grow and change)
our young were massacred
at the airport (and they outgrew perón)
and now isabel (they outgrew him)
can our argentina (and they couldn’t love him)
survive isabel? (the same way anymore)
and he couldn’t forgive them
[doctor]
god save us
from the ministro’s ambitions
[corpus evita]
god has other plans
[woman 1, spoken]
evita, our saint.
[woman 2, spoken]
we love you!
[ensemble]
evita is our saint (evita is our saint, is our saint)
the patron saint of the poor (evita is our saint)
she’s back to protect us
she’s back to guide us
evita is our saint
and we carry her in our hearts
evita’s our saint
evita’s our saint
evita, evita, evita
evita, evita, evita
evita, evita, evita
evita, evita, evita
evita is our saint
saint
[ministro]
saint
yes, that’s right
that will be my next step
