[Original Broadway Cast of Evita, Mandy Patinkin, Patti LuPone, Mark Syers - Goodnight and Thank You lyrics]
You've completed your task
What more could we ask of you now?
Please sign the book on your way out the door
That will be all if we need you, we'll call
But I don't think that's likely somehow
Oh, but it's sad that when
A love affair dies
The parting, the closing of doors
But we must be honest, stop fooling ourselves
Which means "Up yours!"
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
Goodnight and thank you, whoever
She's in every magazine
Been photographed, seen, she is known
We don't like to rush but
Your case has been packed
If we've missed anything
You could give us a ring
But we don't always answer the phone
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
But Eva will not!
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
Goodnight and thank you, whoever
We are grateful you've 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
Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies
The decline into silence and doubt
Our passion was just too intense to survive
For God's sake, get out!
Oh, but this line's an embarrassing sight
Someone has made us look fools
Argentine men call the sexual shots
Someone has altered the rules
Fame on the wireless as far as it goes
It's all very well, but every girl knows
She needs a man she can monopolize
With fingers in dozens of different pies
Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies
