Max von Essen - Eva, beware of the city lyrics

MAX VON ESSEN AND ELENA ROGER [Magaldi:] The city can be paradise for those who have the cash The cla** and the connections, what you need to make a splash The likes of you get swept up in the morning with the trash If you were rich or middle cla** ... [Eva:] Screw the middle cla**es! I will never accept them! My father's other family were middle cla** And we were kept out of sight, hidden from view at his funeral [Eva's brother:] Do all your one night stands give you this trouble? [Magaldi:] Eva beware of the city It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, it is mad Those who are fools are swallowed up whole And those who are not become what they should not become Changed, in short, they go bad [Eva:] Bad is good for me I'm bored, so clean, and so ignored I've only been predictable, respectable Birds fly out of here, so why oh why oh why the hell can't I? I only want variety, of society [Chorus] [Magaldi:] Five years from now I shall come back And finally say, "You have your way, come to town." But you'll look at me with a foreigner's eyes The magical city, a younger girl's city A fantasy long since put down [Eva:] All you've done to me, was that a young girl's fantasy? I played your city games alright, didn't I? I already know what cooks, how the dirty city feels and looks I tasted it last night, didn't I? I'm gonna be a part of B.A Buenos Aires, Big Apple [Eva and family:] She's gonna be a part of B.A Buenos Aires, Big Apple [Magaldi:] Eva beware your ambition It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, will run wild This in a man is danger enough, but you are a woman Not even a woman, not very much more than a child And whatever you say, I'll not steal you away
