A New Argentina - Bob Gunton/Mandy Patinkin (曼迪·帕汀金)/Patti Pone[00:00:00]

Written by：Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice[00:00:02]

Peron：[00:00:05]

Dice are rolling the knives are out[00:00:06]

Would be presidents are all around[00:00:11]

I don't say they mean harm[00:00:14]

But they'd each give an arm[00:00:16]

To see us six feet underground[00:00:19]

Eva：[00:00:22]

It doesn't matter what those morons say[00:00:24]

Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew[00:00:29]

There's only twenty of them anyway[00:00:33]

What is twenty next to millions who[00:00:37]

Are looking to you[00:00:40]

All you have to do is sit and wait[00:00:45]

Keeping out of everybody's way[00:00:49]

We'll you'll be handed power on a plate[00:00:54]

When the ones who matter have their say[00:00:59]

And with chaos installed[00:01:03]

You can reluctantly agree to be called[00:01:08]

Peron：[00:01:12]

There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead[00:01:13]

For distance lends enchantment and that is why[00:01:19]

All exiles are distinguished more important they're not dead[00:01:26]

I could find job satisfaction in Paraguay[00:01:33]

Eva：[00:01:38]

This is crazy defeatist talk[00:01:38]

Why commit political suicide there's no risk[00:01:41]

There's no call for any action at all[00:01:44]

When you have unions on your side[00:01:48]

Workers：[00:01:51]

Peron Peron Peron Peron Peron Peron[00:01:51]

Che：[00:01:58]

A new Argentina the chains of the masses untied[00:02:03]

A new Argentina the voice of the people[00:02:11]

Cannot be denied[00:02:17]

Eva：[00:02:22]

There is only one man who can lead any workers' regime[00:02:22]

He lives for your problems he shares your ideals and your dream[00:02:28]

He supports you for he loves you[00:02:33]

Understands you is one of you[00:02:36]

If not how could he love me[00:02:39]

Che/Secret Police：[00:02:44]

A new Argentina the workers' battle song[00:02:44]

A new Argentina the voice of the people[00:02:53]

Rings out loud and long[00:02:58]

Eva：[00:03:03]

Now I am a worker I've suffered the way that you do[00:03:04]

I've been unemployed and I've starved and I've hated it too[00:03:09]

But I found my salvation in Peron may the nation[00:03:15]

Let him save them as he saved me[00:03:20]

Che：[00:03:25]

A new Argentina a new age about to begin[00:03:26]

A new Argentina we face the world together[00:03:34]

Che/Secret Police：[00:03:39]

And no dissent within[00:03:40]

Individual Workers：[00:03:44]

Nationalization of the industries that the foreigners control[00:03:45]

Participation in the profits that we make[00:03:50]

Shorter hours[00:03:55]

Higher wages[00:03:57]

Votes for women[00:03:58]

Larger dole[00:04:00]

More public spending[00:04:01]

A bigger slice of every cake[00:04:03]

Peron：[00:04:06]

It's annoying that we have to fight elections for our cause[00:04:06]

The inconvenience having to get a majority[00:04:12]

If normal methods of persuasion fail to win us applause[00:04:17]

There are other ways of establishing authority[00:04:23]

Secret Police：[00:04:28]

We have ways of making you vote for us[00:04:28]

Or at least of making you abstain[00:04:31]

Eva：[00:04:34]

Peron has resigned from the army and this we avow[00:04:35]

The descamisados are those he is marching with now[00:04:41]

He supports you for he loves you understands you is one of you[00:04:46]

If not how could he love me[00:04:52]

Both：[00:04:57]

A new Argentina[00:04:57]

The chains of the masses untied[00:05:00]

A new Argentina[00:05:05]

The voice of the people cannot be[00:05:08]

And will not be and must not be denied[00:05:13]

Peron：[00:05:21]

There again we could be foolish[00:05:23]

Not to quit while we're ahead[00:05:27]

I can see me many miles away[00:05:31]

Inactive[00:05:35]

Sipping cocktails on a terrace[00:05:38]

Taking breakfast in bed[00:05:42]

Sleeping easy doing crosswords[00:05:46]

It's attractive[00:05:50]

Eva：[00:05:52]

Don't think I don't think like you[00:05:53]

I often get those nightmares too[00:05:54]

They always take some swallowing[00:05:56]

Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum if[00:05:59]

It's you that you are following[00:06:02]

Don't close doors[00:06:05]

Keep an escape clause[00:06:06]

Because we might lose[00:06:08]

The big apple[00:06:10]

But would I have done what I did[00:06:13]

If I hadn't thought if I hadn't known[00:06:16]

We would take the country[00:06:19]

Both：[00:06:23]

A new Argentina[00:06:26]

The chains of the masses untied[00:06:29]

A new Argentina[00:06:35]

The voice of the people cannot be[00:06:37]

And will not be and must not be denied[00:06:43]
