Letra Eva & Magaldi/eva Beware Of The City de Madonna original

(eva:)
To think that a man as famous as you are
Could love a poor little nothing like me

Chorus:

(eva:)
I wanna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(evas family:)
She wants to be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple

(che:)
Just listen to that, theyre on to you magaldi
Id get out while you can

(eva:)
Its happened at last, Im starting to get started
Im moving out with my man

(magaldi:)
Now eva dont get carried away

(eva:)
Monotony past, suburbia departed
Who could ever be fond of the back of beyond?

(magaldi:)
Dont hear words that I didnt say

(evas family:)
Whats that? youd desert the girl you love?

(magaldi:)
The girl I love?
What are you talking about?

(evas family:)
She really brightened up your out-of-town engagement
She gave you all she had, she wasnt in your contract
You must be quite relieved that noones told the papers, so far

(eva:)
I wanna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple

Would I have done what I did
If I hadnt thought, if I hadnt known
We would stay together

(evas brother:)
Seems to me theres no point in resisting
Shes made up her mind, youve no choice
Why dont you be the man who discovered her
Youll never be remembered for your voice

(magaldi:)
The city can be paradise for those who have the cash
The class 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 class ...

(eva:)
Screw the middle classes! I will never accept them!
My fathers other family were middle class
And we were kept out of sight, hidden from view at his funeral.

(evas brother:)
Do all your one night stands give you this trouble?

(magaldi:)
Eva beware of the city
Its hungry and cold, cant 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
Im bored, so clean, and so ignored
Ive only been predictable, respectable
Birds fly out of here, so why oh why oh why the hell cant 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 youll look at me with a foreigners eyes
The magical city, a younger girls city
A fantasy long since put down

(eva:)
All youve done to me, was that a young girls fantasy?
I played your city games alright, didnt i?
I already know what cooks, how the dirty city feels and looks
I tasted it last night, didnt i?

Im gonna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple

(eva and family:)
Shes gonna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple

(magaldi:)
Eva beware your ambition
Its hungry and cold, cant 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, Ill not steal you away
