The Actress Hasn`t Learned The Lines (Yo — текст песни (Madonna)

[Aristocrats:]

Thus all fairy stories end

Only an actress would pretend

Affairs of state are her latest play

Eight shows a week, two matinees

My how the worm begins to turn

When will the chorus girl ever learn?

My how the worm begins to turn

When will the chorus girl ever learn?



[Eva:]

The chorus girl hasn`t learned the lines you`d like to hear

She won`t go scrambling over the backs of the poor to be accepted

By making donations just large enough to the correct charity

She won`t be president of your wonderful societies of philanthropy

Even if you asked her to be

As you should have asked her to be



The actress hasn`t learned the lines you`d like to hear

She won`t join your clubs, she won`t dance in your halls

She won`t help the hungry once a month at your tombolas

She`ll simply take control as you disappear



[Che:]

Forgive my intrusion, but fine as those sentiments sound

Little has changed for us peasants down here on the ground

I hate to sound childish, ungrateful, I don`t like to moan

But do you now represent anyone`s cause but your own?



[Eva:]

Everything done will be justified by my foundation
