The Deal (no Deal) — текст песни (Various)





Benny Andersson, Tim Rice, and Bjorn Ulvaeus

THE AMERICAN:
Communist, democrat
An intriguing collusion
Fair exchange -- tit for tat
Comradeship in profusion
And the appeal, partner
Of this deal, partner
Is we all stand to win
You and me, the lady also
Don`t break her heart partner
Just be smart partner
Let her think that her past
Is as pure as snow in Moscow
Thank god we`re so civilised
And our word can be our bond
We can turn this into friendship for life
And beyond --
THE RUSSIAN:
Refugee, total shit
Is how I`ve always seen us
Not a help you`ll admit
To agreement between us
There`s no deal, partner
Who`s your real partner?
Could there be just a chance
That you`ve got some heavy clients?
THE AMERICAN (& voice of MOLOKOV):
That`s not true, partner
How could you, partner
Think I`d want to pursue
Any deal but our alliance?
How can you only think
Of your selfish ambition?
And not of her position?
Or you`d rather perhaps
See her world collapse?
For a tinpot competition!
THE RUSSIAN:
There`s no deal!
THE AMERICAN:
Silly boy, woman who
He should not have let walk out
There`s no hitch that we two
Can`t untangle or talk out
And the appeal, partner
Of this deal, partner
Is we both stand to win
We`ll bring back the golden era
Stick with me, honey
Leave him be, honey
In return I know who`ll
Tell you all they know in Moscow
FLORENCE:
Are you sick? Are you mad?
You still don`t understand why I loathe you, why I left
you?
FLORENCE & THE RUSSIAN:
Who`d ever think it?
Such a squalid little ending
Watch him descending
Just as far as he can go
I`m learning things I didn`t want to know
Who`d ever guess it?
This would be the situation
One more complication
Should be neither here nor there
I wish I had it in me not to care
Let him spill out his hate
Till he knows he`s deserted
There`s no point wasting time
Preaching to the perverted
