Martha (at the Costa Rica airport, in posession of Margaret's j**els): Industrialists, the military, peasants are waiting at the airport CHORUS: She's coming, she's coming, she's coming With a great silver bird she's coming She's coming, she's coming, she's coming With a great silver bird she's coming Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha Martha: When I was poor I hated it Always the wolf at the door Now that I'm rich I'm so happy I'll never be poor anymore I'll never be poor anymore Chorus: Heavy industry A higher standard of living Martha: When I was a kid grandma told me Girl, now you listen to me Without any money you're nothing Without money you'll never be free
Chorus: Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha You might be pretty, forget it, forget it You might be smart but so what If you don't have plenty of money It's plenty of nothing you've got Heavy industry A higher standard of living Hard currency [An unwritten dance] Martha: I had a friend I betrayed that friend Am I an animal or what? Does not a human heart beat within my breast Maybe not! Chorus: Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha, Martha Martha (speaking to the audience): Goodbye, goodbye everyone! We won't see each other ever again. But in my heart, I'll always be an American. (Some angry grumbling) A north american. Goodbye and give my regards to broadway!
