[00:01.79]People of Europe, I send you the Rainbow of Argentina
[00:09.58]
[00:16.98]Spain has fallen to the charms of Evita
[00:22.03]She can do what she likes, it doesn't matter much
[00:25.75]
[00:25.92]She's our lady of the new world with a golden touch
[00:29.59]
[00:29.80]She filled a bull-ring, forty-five thousand seater
[00:34.85]
[00:35.11]But if you're prettier than General Franco, that's not hard
[00:40.89]
[00:42.55]Franco's reign in Spain should see out the forties
[00:47.95]So you've just acquired an ally who
[00:51.54]Looks as secure in his job as you
[00:55.23]
[00:55.45]But more important current political thought is
[01:01.13]Your wife's a phenomenal asset, your trump card
[01:06.33]
[01:06.97]Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
[01:10.26]It's been an incredible success
[01:13.82]We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
[01:17.61]
[01:17.97]Will Evita win through?
[01:19.95]But the answer is yes
[01:22.24]
[01:22.68]There you are, I told you so
[01:25.95]Makes no difference where she goes
[01:29.53]The whole world over just the same
[01:33.75]Just listen to them call her name
[01:37.11]And who would underestimate the actress now?
[01:44.32]
[01:44.93]Now I don't like to spoil a wonderful story
[01:49.98]But the news from Rome isn't quite as good
[01:53.69]She hasn't gone down like they thought she would
[01:57.33]Italy's unconvinced by Argentine glory
[02:02.86]They equate Peron with Mussolini, can't think why
[02:08.26]
[02:12.86]Did you hear that? They called me a whore!
[02:15.82]They actually called me a whore!
[02:18.66]
[02:19.36]But Signora Peron it's an easy mistake
[02:22.48]I'm still called an admiral
[02:24.71]Yet I gave up the sea long ago
[02:28.03]
[02:30.25]More bad news from Rome; she met with the Pope
[02:35.29]She only got a rosary, a kindly word
[02:38.28]
[02:39.03]I wouldn't say the Holy Father gave her the bird
[02:42.69]But papal decorations, never a hope
[02:48.11]
[02:48.31]She still looked the part at St. Peter's, caught the eye
[02:54.39]
[02:55.00]Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
[02:57.38]It's been an incredible success
[03:01.38]We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
[03:05.17]
[03:05.58]Will Evita win through?
[03:07.38]But the answer is ...
[03:09.61]A qualified
[03:10.61]Yes
[03:11.78]
[03:14.17]Eva started well, no question, in France
[03:19.97]Shining like a sun through the post-war haze
[03:23.37]A beautiful reminder of the care-free days
[03:27.08]She nearly captured the French, she sure had the chance
[03:32.93]But she suddenly seemed to lose interest
[03:36.31]She looked tired
[03:38.07]
[03:40.69]Face the facts, the Rainbow's starting to fade
[03:45.67]I don't think she'll make it to England now
[03:49.19]
[03:49.85]It wasn't on the schedule anyhow
[03:52.78]
[03:53.47]You'd better get out the flags and fix a parade
[03:58.32]Some kind of coming home in triumph is required
[04:03.49]
[04:04.21]Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
[04:07.67]It's been an incredible success
[04:10.89]We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
[04:15.20]
[04:15.41]Would Evita win through?
[04:17.79]And the answer is
[04:19.22]Yes
[04:20.16]And no
[04:20.96]And yes
[04:21.64]And no
[04:22.54]And yes
[04:24.88]No
[04:27.82]
[04:28.13]Let's hear it for the Rainbow Tour
[04:30.33]It's been an incredible success
[04:33.92]We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
[04:38.46]
[04:38.73]Would Evita win through? But the answer is
[04:44.44]Yes
[04:46.78]Yes
[04:49.11]Yes
[04:50.37]
