Overture/Backstage Dreamland

One of us will be Miss Saigon
Spread the word! It's Miss Saigon!
Who's left to screw who hasn't gone?
Shut up and get your hot pants on!

Each day more G.Is disappear
There's still some left, and they'll all be here
Us girls can trust the Engineer

Surprise!
I found this new girl. Get her dressed!
From the country, untouched

Just give that virgin act a rest
"You are my first American"
Allez, allez, allez!
Why does it take all day?
Get your asses onstage!
I'm raising cash tonight! (Tonight I will be Miss Saigon)
They say Saigon has weeks
I say it's time to pack (Tonight I will be Miss Saigon)

Each night these little buns of theirs are worth less and less
I need a visa, fast
And I'm not looking back
Son of a bitch, they're here
I can still Engineer
You take a look, yeah?

It's like the old days, my little gamines (Oh, sure!)
You know who's out there? A gang of marines (They're here)
We'll pick 'em clean
That's what this contest's about (Yes, sir!)
One of these boys might be your ticket out

Why is she in that dress?
It's my new princess
A bride will give the guys a treat
Lower your eyelids and play sweet
Men pay the moon to get fresh meat
Allez, allez, allez
Get out and do your song
Don't make the show too long
Voila! Onstage, all
Welcome to
Dreamland!
