Claude-Michel Schönberg - The Transaction (Live West End Revival) lyrics

[Engineer] Hey, Monsieur John, how'd you like to get rich, Go home in style? [John] Yeah, okay, What's the pitch? [Engineer] A US visa to help me get out Lend me a bit of your emba**y clout [John] There isn't a chance pal, you're too well known. Look, what I want is that girl, in the dress [Engineer] You have a good eye, Her name is Kim, she's my new princess. You give her a try? [John] My buddy, Chris, It's like, something just snapped [Engineer] She's what he needs She's got treasures untapped But I have to warn you she don't come cheap [John, spoken] I've got that covered my man [Engineer] It's gotta be twenty, for my princess [John] Twenty for this sh**? She's sort of a virgin, well, more or less For twenty more you get a room and key You f**ing with me? For fifty bucks she's got the whole night free! [Americans] No one gives you a buzz like the Engineer does [John] Stop drooling white boy You're losing your cool. You like this jail-bait? [Chris] John open your eyes! This is the end of the line This whole rotten scene This little girl we could be in the sack And I'd take something I can't give back John, JOHN, It's time to go home It's time to get clean [John] I'm starting to cry you're so out of touch The trouble with you is you think too much A who*e is better than an empty bed Man, you need some action to clear your head [Americans] Nothing gives you a hit like the Engineers sh** [Engineer, spoken] That's right! (sung) My little princess I was right You are the first to score tonight You caught that sergeant by the nose You stay with him until he goes Call him Chris, he'll like that [Kim] Please don't... You said you needed a job You said you'd turn a trick You'd better prove it and quick! [Kim] Monsieur Chris [Engineer, spoken] Don't worry she's clean, I washed her myself
