Lyrics The Heat Is On In Saigon - Original London Cast Recording - Jonathan Pryce

Soldiers: The heat is on in Saigon
The girls are hotter than 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
Is there a war going on?
Don't ask, I ain't gonna tell
Chris: How are you doing there John?
John: Chris!
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 wanna hear
John: Get out of here
The heat is on in Saigon, but 'til 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 show you my special trophy of war
Mimi: For a marine I show more
Soldiers: You won't get up of the floor
The heat is on in Saigon
Don't tell me I'm reassigned
All that chicken shit 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, cherie
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 17 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?
Soldiers: The Cong is tightening the noose
Is it a week or a day or an hour we've got?
Tonight could be our last shot, got to put it to use
Tonight I bet that you and I will get along
Forget about the threat
Forget the Viet-Cong
Mimi, Gigi, Yvette or Yvonne?
Gonna buy me a beer and elect Miss Saigon
Engineer: Yvonne
Yvette
Mimi
Kim
Gigi
Ladies and gentlemen by popular demand
Miss Gigi Van Tran is elected Miss Saigon
Soldiers: 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!
