The Deal (no Deal)



Various Artists - The Deal (no Deal) - Текст песни

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
