The Lady's Got Potential ("Evita" - 1976 Concept Album) - Andrew Lloyd Webber (安德魯·勞埃德·韋伯)/Colm Wilkinson

Written by：Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice

The lady's got potential she ought to go far

She always knows exactly who her best friends are

The greatest social climber since Cinderella

But Eva's not the only one who's getting the breaks

I'm a research chemist who's got what it takes

And my insecticide's gonna be a bestseller

Yeah just one blast and the insects fall like flies

Kapow die they don't have a chance

In the fly killing world it's a major advance

In my world it'll mean finance

I'm shaping up successful capitalist wise

But getting back to Eva she just saw those guys

As steps on the ladder to the ultimate prize

And he goes by the name of Colonel Peron

He began his career in the army overseas

Teaching all the other soldiers all he knew about skis

When others took a tumble he would always stay on

Yeah sure Peron could ski but who needs a snowman

He said

Great men don't grow on trees

I'm one I ain't gonna freeze

Dictators don't grow on skis

Peron would be no number two to no man

He married in the meantime but the poor girl died

Imagine if she hadn't we'd have been denied

The heartwarming tear jerking rise to fame of Eva

Now my insecticide contains no dangerous ***

It can't harm humans but it's curtains for bugs

If you've got six legs I ain't doin' you no favor

Yeah just one blast and the insects fall like flies

Kapow die they don't have a chance

In the fly killing world it's a major advance

In my world it'll mean finance

I'm shaping up successful capitalist wise

Kapow die they don't have a chance

In the fly killing world it's a major advance

In my world it'll mean finance

I'm shaping up successful capitalist wise

Oh yes Peron he joined a faction called the GOU

G government O order U unity

They were the gang behind the military coup

So Peron was a heartbeat away from control of the nation

They thought that Hitler had the war as good as won

They were slightly to the right of Attila the Hun

And Eva set her sights on Peron and his situation

And Eva set her sights on Peron and his situation

The GOU is a three pronged operation

Government unopposed and allied

With order ruthlessly applied

And unity those not on our side

Are subject to the process of elimination
