text: Oh what a circus, oh what a show
  Argentina has gone to town
  Over the death of an actress called Eva Peron
  Weve all gone crazy
  Mourning all day and mourning all night
  Falling over ourselves to get all of the misery right
  Oh what an exit, thats how to go
  When theyre ringing your curtain down
  Demand to be buried like Eva Peron
  Its quite a sunset
  And good for the country in a roundabout way
  Weve made the front page of all the worlds papers today
  But who is this Santa Evita?
  Why all this howling, hysterical sorrow?
  What kind of goddess has lived among us?
  How will we ever gеt by without her?
  She had her momеnts, she had some style
  The best show in town was the crowd
  Outside the Casa Rosada crying, Eva Peron
  But thats all gone now
  As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
  Were all gonna see and how, she did nothing for years
  Salve regina mater misericordiae
  Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
  Salve salve regina
  Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
  Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
  O clemens o pia
  Hail, oh queen, mother of mercy
  Our life, sweetness, and hope
  Hail, hail, oh queen
  To you we cry, exiled sons of Eve
  To you we sigh, mourning and weeping
  Oh clement, oh loving one
  You let down your people Evita
  You were supposed to have been immortal
  Thats all they wanted, not much to ask for
  But in the end you could not deliver
  Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
  Enjoy your prayers because you havent got long
  Your queen is dead, your king is through
  And shes not coming back to you
  Show business kept us all alive
  Since seventeen October 1945
  But the star has gone, the glamours worn thin
  Thats a pretty bad state for a state to be in
  Instead of government we had a stage
  Instead of ideas, a prima donnas rage
  Instead of help we were given a crowd
  She didnt say much, but she said it loud
  Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
  Enjoy your prayers because you havent got long
  Your queen is dead, your king is through
  Shes not coming back to you
  Salve regina mater misericordiae
  Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
  Salve salve regina Peron
  Ad te clamamus exules filii Eva
  Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
  O clemens o pia
  Dont cry for me Argentina
  For I am ordinary, unimportant
  And undeserving of such attention
  Unless we all are, I think we all are
  So share my glory, so share my coffin
  So share my glory, so share my coffin
