I always thought my country right or wrong
I used to say, here's where I belong
But that's a joke
I might as well have been
As loyal to
El Salvador, Afghanistan
The South of France, Japan, Hong Kong!
Oh, my insecticide!

[OFFICERS]
It's all very well—to a certain extent
For the lady at the side of the president
To show an interest—in affairs
But let's not be blind to the drift of events
She's eclipsing the strength of the government
She should return to—below stairs
She will never win our hearts
She's a woman for a start
She holds no elected post
She's an ornament at most

[PERÓN]
But on the other hand, she's all they have
She's a diamond in their dull grey lives
And that's the hardest kind of stone—it usually survives
And when you think about it, can you recall
The last time they loved anyone at all?
She's not a bauble you can brush aside
She's been out doing what we just talked about, example:
Gave us back our businesses, got the English out
And if you think about it—well, why not do
One or two of the things we promised to?

But on the other hand, she's slowing down
She's lost a little of that magic drive
But I would not advise those critics present to derive
Any satisfaction from her fading star
She's the one who's kept us where we are
