Goodnight and Thank You Songtext

von Andrew Lloyd Webber

Ché:
Goodnight and thank you, Huevo
She's in every magazine, been photographed, seen, she is known
We don't like to rush but your case has been packed
If she's missed anything, you could give her a ring
But she won't always answer the phone

Eva:
Oh, but it's said when a love affair dies
But we have pretended enough
It's best that we both stop fooling ourselves

Ché:
Which means...

Eva & Ché:
There is no one, no one at all
Never has been and never will be a lover
Male or female
Who hasn't an eye on, in fact they rely on
Tricks they can try on their partner
They're hoping their lover will help them or keep them
Support them, promote them
Don't blame them, you're the same

Ché:
Goodnight and thank you, Emilio
You've completed your task, what more can we ask of you now
Please sign the book on your way out the door
And that will be all, if she needs you she'll call
But I don't think that's likely somehow

Eva:
Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies
But when we were hot, we were hot
I know you'll look back on the good times we shared

Ché:
Which means...

Eva & Ché:
There is no one, no one at all
Never has been and never will be a lover
Male or female
Who hasn't an eye on, in fact they rely on
Tricks they can try on their partner
They're hoping their lover will help them or keep them
Support them, promote them

Ché:
Don't blame her, you're the same

Eva & girls:
There is no soap, no soap like Zazz
Do detergent, lotion or oil with such power
In the shower
It's the mother and father of luxury lather
The talk of the bath, the great ointment
One little frolic with new Zazz carbolic
You're scented, you'll be sent

Ché:
Goodnight and thank you, Señor Jabon
We are grateful you found her a spot on the sound radio
We'll think of you every time she's on the air
We'd love you to stay, but you'd be in the way
So do up your trousers and go!

Eva:
Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies
The decline into silence and doubt
Our passion was just to intense to survive

Ché:
Which means...

Eva's suitors:
This is a club I should never have joined
Someone has made us look fools
Argentine men call the sexual shots
Someone has altered the rules

Eva:
Fame on the wire, as far as it goes
Is all very well, but every girl knows

Ché:
She needs a man she can monopolize
With fingers in dozens of different pies

Eva's suitors & Ché:
Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies
