The Actress Hasn't Learned The Lines

English: Thus all fairy stories end
Only an actress would pretend
Affairs of state are her latest play
Eight shows a week 2 matinees

My how the worm begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn
My how the worm begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn

Eva: The chorus girl hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She won't go scrambling over the backs of the poor to be accepted
By making donations just large enough to the correct charity
She won't be president of your wonderful societies of philanthropy
Even if you asked her to be
As you should have asked her to be

The actress hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She won't join your clubs she won't dance in your halls
She won't help the hungry once a month at your tombolas
She'll simply take control as you disappear

Che: Forgive my intrusion but fine as those sentiments sound
Little has changed for us peasants down here on the ground
I hate to sound childish ungrateful I don't like to moan
But do you now represent anyone's cause but your own

Eva: Everything done will be justified by my foundation

That Girl

Ive heard the rumours, I hear one every night
They say that youve been cheatin on me, I know theyre not right
They dont really know you, they just dont understand
I know you wouldnt do that, wouldnt be so underhand
Chorus:
And still they say, that girl, yeah the girl is playin round again
That girl, yeah they say I oughta know
They say I havent noticed, that you wanna be alone
And sometimes no ones there when I answer the phone
They say you tell me stories about the places you go
If theres somethin youre not tellin me, Ive got the right to know
Yeah -
Chorus
I hear it every night, that girl, they say if I know what is good for me
Hey that girl, they say that I should let her go
My friends are tellin stories, about your goings on
I just wanna talk to you, babe, Ive got to know whats goin on
They dont really know you, they just dont understand
I know you wouldnt do it, you wouldnt be so underhand
Yeah -
Chorus
Hear it every night
That girl, then they say its for the company
That girl, I hear it everywhere I go
That girl, they say that Im too blind to see
That girl, it seems she cant say no
That girl...

I worked hard, baby, night and day
The things i had somebody took away
They took away everything i earned
But there's one lesson that'a i have learned

You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (4x)
Verse 2:
I been pushed and i been knocked down
But i picked myself right back up off the ground
And baby there's one thing that i have found
Fighting's the only way's to stand your ground

You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (4x)
Bridge:
I've been used, i've been abused
I've had, baby, my regrets
I've been lost, i paid the cost
But there's one thing i ain't gonna forget
Verse 3:
I've heard some hard lines, i've seen some cryin' times
Bad luck and trouble they been friends of mine
Got to stand straight and stare right at your face (fate?)
And play it hard before it's too late

You got to hold on, little girl, to what you've got (8x)

English Eyes

What youre sayin it never really crossed my mind
I hear playin and everybodys keepin time
Im recallin that girl I met in london town
She was strange, young and tender and narrowed all my choices down
Chorus:
We ran away into the night hypnotized
You carved your name right next to mine, english eyes
I was tryin to read her lips and knew the time was drawing near
I forgot what she said but I remember how she whispered in my ear
I can hear laughter coming from the places we once knew
There were stories from a stranger out of nowhere but they seemed so true
Chorus
English eyes, english eyes
(instrumental break)
English eyes
Red sky warning, girl you really put a spell on me
Never told me bout the daddy you refused to please
You took the bishop when the king was standing right in front of you
Theres nothing in it if I cant have a girl with eyes like you
Chorus repeats 2x
English eyes, yeah, english eyes, english eyes

Without Your Love

Its late at night, nothins feelin right
Since youve gone away
I think I know why you left this time,
But its still hard to say
I nearly lost it, when he came around you
Now Im holdin it all inside and its killin me
We used to meet at an old cafe in chi-town
At first you could hear the wind stop,
Then my heart would pound
I remember everything you used to do, girl
Now Im learning something that you already knew
Chorus:
Its not the same without your love
Every night and every day, girl
Its not the same without your love
You dont have to be afraid
Its not the same without your love
Every night and every day, girl
Its not the same without your love
I sa you through the door, with your motor runnin
I can still hear the sound
I knew then, when you asked him in, you let your guard down
Youre talking soft, dont tell me,
I know youre sincere
I just called to tell you Im the only one here

Little Girl

It was just the month of may,
Words got in my way, girl Im so sorry
So Im reaching out to you,
With the hope to see you through
Just another day
Do you see
The words Im trying to say,
But words get in my way, girl I really mean it,
Yes I warned you from the start
That I could break your heart
So girl dont stay
Ooh, ooh little girl
Ooh, ooh little girl
Ooh, ooh little girl
Im the fool that plays the part, the one
That broke your heart,
Girl Im so sorry, so what more can a poor boy do,
Im reaching out to you,
So now dont you stay
(chorus)
Shades turn red from green to blue,
What more can I do, I told you this before,
So please walk out hat door
I told you from the start
That love could break your heart,
Girl Im so sorry, ooh ooh little girl

Gotta Tell Someone

CHORUS
I gotta tell someone,can anyone hear me
The girl of my dreams told me that she loves me
She whispered & I was consumed so completely
Lost in the love that I feel whenever she's near me
She's got me wishing for something that's missing
Staring at stars getting high on her kissing
Now I got my girl, my girl got me
We're making plans for a family
CHORUS
Together we'll stay come what may
Nothing come between us or get in our way
This is for real the really big deal
At last we've found someone who knows how we feel
CHORUS
She took me out walking, I should not be talking
Whispered in my ear but I'm telling you nothing
If I were you, you know what I'd do
Get one of your own so you can whisper too
CHORUS

Eva's Final Broadcast

Eva: The actress hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She's sad for her country
Sad to be defeated by her own weak body

I want to tell the people of Argentina
I've decided I should decline
All the honors and titles you've pressed me take
For I'm contented
Let me simply go on as the women who brings her people
To the heart of Peron

Don't cry for me Argentina
The truth is I shall not leave you
Though it may get harder for you to see me
I'm Argentina and always will be

Have I said too much
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you
But all you have to do is look at me to know
That every word is true

Cry

Cry love
Cry war
Cry innocence
That is lost forever more
Cry joy
Cry thief
Cry Beautiful
That is just beyond belief
So I...
CHORUS
Cry at the end
Cry 'cause it all begins again
Here you are and so am I
And we cry
Cry alone
Cry to me
Cry freedom
Then let yourself be free
To shed tears
That have to flow
To hold somebody close to you
And then let them go
CHORUS
Cry at the end
Cry 'cause it all begins again
Here you are and so am I
And we cry
Cry peace
Cry hate
Cry faithlessness
Then just have a little faith
CHORUS
Cry at the end
Cry 'cause it all begins again
Here you are and so am I
And we cry
Try to be true
Try 'cause we're only passing through
Here you are and so am I
And we cry
CHORUS
Cry at the end
Cry 'cause it all begins again
Here you are and so am I
And we cry

Conversation's Over

Conversation.. oohh
Did it start with an obsession?
Was the writing on the wall?
I can see through your deception
Through it all
I see clearly now
For too long you've had it your way
For too long I've tiptoed round
Finally we're face to face boy
No drama now
I'll stand my ground
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over
And there's nothing more to say
I've had my time with you
So hear me now
I won't stay
It's my turn to walk away
No point in talking round in circles
Or trying to read between the lines
I saw you dancing with the devil
I'm not blind
Don't sympathise
Cos for too long you've played your own game
For too long I've stood and cried
It's time I changed the combination
I'll be fine
Won't change my mind
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over
And there's nothing more to say
I've had my time with you
So hear me now
I won't stay
It's my turn to walk away
I've found the strength to finally say it
What the walls have heard a thousand times
And I just don't want pain
I know I'll go insane
I've reconnected my mind
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over, yeah
And there's nothing more to say
I've had my time with you
So hear me now
I won't stay (I won't stay)
It's my turn to walk away
Chorus:
Now the conversation's over (it's over yeah)
And there's nothing more to say (to say to say)
I've had my time with you
So hear me now
I won't stay (I won't stay)
It's my turn to walk away
Walk away
Walk away

I'm a Fool

got nothing to loose this time
and i'm bored with the same old lines
i never know what to do or what to say to you
one look and you'll knock me out
you put me on the floor with a ten count
i don't wanna make a scene i gotta make you see
that i've been waiting for a girl like you
and i know there's nothing i could do

[chorus:]
don't wanna make you hurt
don't wanna make you feel
like the world ain't on your side
like you're never gonna get it right
no i can't fight i can't sleep at night
just thinking about you girl
i'm a fool for you
yes i am

you've been on my mind
since i saw you walking by
i knew i had to know you better you were everything
but i didn't know what to say
so you just walked away
i couldn't believe what a fool i was to let you go
cause that i've been waiting for a girl like you
and i know there's nothing i could do

[repeat chorus]

yeah

then i saw you at the beach talking with my friends
i couldn't believe my eyes it was my lucky day
so i just asked you out to the Forum to see No Doubt
when you said you would go i thought i might explode
cause that i've been waiting for a girl like you
and i know there's nothing i could do

[repeat chorus 2x]

yes i am
i am a fool for you
yes i am
i am

I Can Hear Your Heartbeat

In the silence of the side street
In the whisper of the night
From the darkness of the empty hours
To the early morning light
From the hustle down on main street
With all it's lights so bright
To the trucker on the highway
Pressing through the night
I can hear you heartbeat
I can hear you heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me
And i'm sailing on your wind song
Oh, i can feel the summer breeze
You've got me walking on my tiptoes
You've got me standing on my knees
From the mills way down in pittsburgh
To the clubs of gay paris
Ah, no matter where i roam, girl,
You can always get to me
I can hear you heartbeat
I can hear you heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet
To me
We got freezing coca-cola
We got anything you want
I moving on that back beat
Girl, but it's you that sings the song
'cos i can hear you heartbeat
I can hear you heartbeat
The sound of you is so sweet
To me
Oh i still hear your heartbeat
Yea i still hear your heartbeat
Girl, the sound of you is so sweet,
To me

The Little Girl I Once Knew

We met when she was younger
And I had no eyes for her.
A few years went by and I saw her,
Now I'm gonna try for her.
(Look out, baby.)
(chorus)
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once
She's not the little girl I once
She's not the little girl I once knew.
How could I ever have known that
She'd be what she is today.
An' look at how her boy friend calls her.
I'll be movin' in one day.
(split man)
(chorus)
(Bow, bow, bow) Laa-do-day,
(Bow, bow, bow) Laa-do-day,
(Bow, bow, bow) Laa-do-day,
(Bow, bow, bow),
(chorus)
She's not the little girl I once knew.
She's not the little girl I once,
She's not the little girl I once knew.
She's not the little girl I once,
She's not the little girl I once knew.
She's not the little girl I once,
She's not. . .

Actress

She uses her innocence as a shield
Hoping no one will ever see past it
See inside her story, once upon a time
For girl-next-door-beautifuls everywhere
She asked him
To her surprise, he refused
It broke her heart like a mirror
with her real face on the other side feeling pain
All I can say is
She's an actress
A great actress
She asks them how their day was
And gives them a grin
She teaches her "philosophy"- Think Win-Win
Yeah, right
But beyond that cheer is something called fear
of being on the outside of life
Beyond that joy is something that boy
left when he walked away
Leaving her in the dark
If she's an actress, she's the best
Or is she being real? Maybe she's happy that it
Happened, but if she's happy,
He's the one that's heartbroken
Walking away cause he saw it was a dare
A dare for herself, but he's wrong
She's an actress
A great actress
She revolves her life around him
When he refused, he broke her heart
Her real girl-next-door life
She failed girl-next-door-beautifuls
Thanks to him
She's an actress
He started a new life for her by refusing
If her philosophy was Think Win-Win,
he would have said yes
He would have said yes
She's an actress
A great actress

Words

Girl, dont you know everytime I see you smilin?
Hurts so bad cause when I see you, I start tryin.
Try everything to stop but theres no denying.
Falling in love with you girl is just like dying.
Ohhh, dont walk away.
Ohh, how can I make you stay, dont turn away
I can still hear you saying those
Chorus:
Words that never were true.
Spoken to help nobody but you.
Words with lies inside,
But small enough to hide
til your playin was through. ah!
Girl dont you know we can work it out with talkin?
You wont turn around or slow down your walking.
Ive given you everything with kiss to seal it
You had to get your kicks with tryin to steal it.
Now, Im standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those
Chorus:
Now, Im standing here.
Strange, strange voices in my ears, I feel the tears
But all I can hear are those-

Verse 1:
Tell me can I live my life
Doing what I feel is right

I got my own opinion and I know whats best for me
I do what I want when I want and thats how its gotta be

Tell me can I do my thing
Without you calling my name
Asking me where Im going, where Ive been
When Im leaving, why I came
Cant chose my own clothes go where I wanna go
Im not a toy for you to command Im not under your control
Girl why cant we just live equally oh girl it would be so nice
Instead of you giving an attitude and trying to run my life

Im not a machine no you cant control me

Haunted

I will come 2 u
In the still of the night
And I will crush u
With the burden of sight
And u will understand
The shadows in my heart
The fury of my conviction
Will cause your heart 2 quicken
And then, my dear
U will see u want me here
[CHORUS]
And when u wake up
U will see yourself through my eyes
And when u break up
You'll understand
Why it is I cry
Let me speak quietly
So your heart can hear
I will hypnotize and mesmerize u
With the sound of your own fear
[CHORUS]
I just wanna get along
This is your song
I wrote it in my head
But the melody's all wrong
And it's driving me crazy
Not having u, baby
2 keep me company
In my own private world
You're my one true girl
And I won't be stoppin' Just 'cause your knees are knockin'
When I decide 2 drop in
So don't make a sound
'Cause there's no one around
2 come between us now
I'm gonna haunt u, girl
[CHORUS]

Mrs. Right

Keepin' on..... Keep keepin' on....
Rap:
Yo, all I wanna do is like swing with you, is like swing with you, just swing with you, yo baby, all I wanna do is like swing with you, so come on girl and swing, so we can do our thing! All I wanna
do is like swing with you, is like swing with you, just swing with you, yo baby, all I wanna do is like swing with you, is like swing with you, just swing!
Ooh, ooh, baby
Come on, sugar
Baby, baby, come on
May be a fool to let my heart control me
And my mind is telling me I'm crazy
Is she the one although she hardly knows me
Should I cut her off, for my own safety
Will it last forever?
I don't think so
Will we stay together?
I don't know
My friends say never
Let your heart control you
Is it for the better?
Tell me so
Chorus:
Are you really Mrs. Right
'Cause I can't make up my mind
Girl you are so fine, so fine
Baby let me know the deal,
'Cause I gotta know if it's for real
Say you will be mine, all mine
Are you really? (repeat 4 times)
Where do I turn, I don't know which way
Will I ever learn from my own mistakes
If I play it smooth will Mrs. Right swing this way
Or will it lead to another heartache, baby
Will it last forever?
I don't think so
Will we stay together?
I don't know
My friends say never
Let your heart control you
Is it for the better?
Tell me so
Chorus twice
(I just can't fight it) I just can't fight it
(The way I feel) The way that I feel about you
(You've got to tell me) Tell me baby
(Are you for real?) Oh, baby
Rap
Chorus three times and fade
