Tonight I will be Miss Saigon

Gigi

Tonight you'll be Miss "jumped upon"

Girls

I'll win a GI and be gone

Gigi

He'll screw you with your crown still on

Mimi

What happens when the Cong attack?

Gigi

They'll rip the hot pants off your back

Girls

The VC all wear basic black

Kim

Is this the way you make a chest?

Gigi

Hey, give that virgin act a rest

Girls

"You are my first American"

Engineer

Allez! Allez! Allez!

Why does it take all day?

Get your asses on stage

I'm raising cash tonight

Girls

Tonight I will be Miss Saigon

Engineer

Tell yourself that your passport's standing at the bar

Girls

Tonight I will be Miss Saigon

Engineer

Each day these little bums of yours are worth less and less

Rake in the dollars now before the market falls too far

Engineer

Look who I got out here

I can still engineer

It's like the old days, my little gamines

Girls

Oh sure!

Engineer

You know who's out here?

A gang of marines!

Girls

They're here?

Engineer

We'll clean them out the American way

Girls

Yes, sir!

Engineer

For something free, they don't care what they pay

Why are you in that dress?

Ah! It's my new princess

Ah, yes...

That bridal gown gives you some class

Lower your eyelids as you pass

Men pay a lot for virgin ass

Allez! Allez! Allez!

Get out and do your song!

Don't make the show too long

Voilà! On stage all!

Welcome to... Dreamland!

Americans

The heat is on in Saigon

The girls are hotter 'n hell

One of these slits here will be Miss Saigon

God, the tension is high, not to mention the smell

The heat is on in Saigon

Estevez

Is there a war going on?

Americans

Don't ask, I ain't gonna tell

Chris

How are you doing there, John?

John

I got the hots for Yvonne

We should get drunk and get laid

Since the end is so near

Chris

I tell you, buddy, I've had it

I don't want to hear

John

The heat is on in Saigon

But till they tell me I'm gone

I'm gonna buy you a girl

Chris

You can buy me a beer

Mimi

See my bikini, it's just the right size

Yvette

Don't you enjoy how it rides up my thighs?

Look from behind, it'll knock out your eyes

Yvonne

I'll show you my special trophy of war

Mimi

For a Marine, I'll show more

Americans

You won't get up off the floor

The heat is on in Saigon

Don't tell me I'm reassigned

All that chickenshit sucks

Tonight I'm out of my mind

Not to mention ten bucks

Gigi

If I'm your pin-up, I'll melt all your brass

Stuck on your wall, with a pin in my ass

If you get me, you will travel first class

I'll show you, we will make magic, cheri

Engineer

You buy more tickets from me

The winner gets her for free

Chris

The meat is cheap in Saigon

Why can't I just play the game?

We lost the war long ago

What is this bug up my ass?

You tell me, I don't know

Kim

I'm seventeen, and I'm new here today

The village I come from seems so far away

All of the girls know much more what to say

But I know

I have a heart like the sea

A million dreams are in me

Chris

Good Jesus, John, who is she?

Americans (and crowd)

The Cong is tight'ning the noose

Is it a week or a day or an hour that we got?

Tonight could be our last shot got to put it to use

All

Tonight I bet that you and I will get along

Forget about the threat, forget the Vi-et Cong

All men

Mimi, Gigi, Yvette or Yvonne

Gonna buy me a beer

And elect Miss Saigon

Engineer

Yvonne, Yvette, Mimi, Kim, Gigi

Attention, s'il vous plait!

By popular demand

Miss Gigi Van Tranh

Is elected Miss Saigon!

Americans

The heat is on in Saigon

And things are not going well

But still at midnight, the party goes on

A good-bye party in hell

Engineer

And now who wins her?

Gigi

Number 66!
