Текст песни Miss Saigon - What A Waste

(A street filled with vendors in Patpong in Bangkok, outside a sleazy
night-club called "Le Moulin Rouge" where the ENGINEER is doorman
and barker. Other DOORMEN compete with him for the attention of
crowds of TOURISTS.)

ENGINEER
check it out, hey!
yo! check it out!
hey, boy! You want to try my girls?
try my girls, eh? etc...

DOORMEN
girls! I got girls!

DOORMEN
gorgeous girls!

DOORMEN
very nice!

TOURISTS
hey, wow! Oh look! We gotta see!

VENDORS
bags! Gucci bags!

VENDORS
cultured pearls!

VENDORS
shrimp and rice!

TOURISTS
I'm glad my wife's not here with me!

ENGINEER
what a waste!
to pay for my keep
I'm rounding up sheep
to fleece here in Bangkok

I'm disgraced
I can't get ahead
there's nothing as dead
as peace here in Bangkok

ten cents an hour, and I stand all day
I could sell Kim for ten times my pay

(to some TOURISTS)

if you're looking for fun
original sin
if you want to put out
then you gotta come in

(TOURISTS pass. He tries to make them take his leaflets.)

DOORMEN
girls! I got girls!

DOORMEN
gorgeous girls!

DOORMEN
very nice!

DOORMEN ENGINEER (to TOURISTS)
girls! gee, isn't Bangkok really neat?
I got girls! the things they're selling on the street
girls! fresh dog, if that's what you'd enjoy
worth the price a girl, or if you want a boy

DOORMEN and the ENGINEER
come, come to me
first drink is free

ENGINEER
(to two Japanese TOURISTS)
don't be a lump, you can hump
for a small extra fee

ENGINEER
I'm depressed
for hustling amours
to Japanese tours
is no treat in Bangkok

I'm the best
but where's a Marine
with fistfuls of green
I'd cheat him in Bangkok

ten cents an hour...

(The CLUB OWNER, the ENGINEER'S boss, passes.)

ENGINEER
evening, Boss

..screw the Siamese
look how they're ripping off... refugees

(to another PASSER-BY)

ENGINEER
if you're looking for fun
original sin
if you want to put out
then you gotta come in

DOORMEN ENGINEER
girls! hey boys, don't stand around like wimps
I got girls! watch out, those guys, they're really pimps
girls! you want some thrills, I'll guarantee some
half the price! tonight, a twosome or a threesome

DOORMEN
hey, come to me!

(unfolding folders of photos)

DOORMEN
look what you'll see!

ENGINEER
hey, that's a joke, mine blow smoke
for a small extra fee

VENDORS
acid, marijuana and hash

DOORMEN
we'll get you high in a flash

TOURISTS
let's go and see what they mean

VENDORS
chicken, lemon grass and bamboo

TOURISTS
we want to try something new

DOORMEN
come do the ping pong routine!

ENGINEER TOURISTS
hey, Joe, try taking a little excursion
you'll all feel good from a little perversion oh yeah!
massage requiring total immersion oh wow!
some strange positions they say are Persian oh no!

ENGINEER
drinks are on me
first girl is free
what can I say? You get me
for a small extra fee!

VENDORS
acid, marijuana and hash

DOORMEN
we'll get you high in a flash

TOURISTS
let's go and see what he means

VENDORS
chicken, lemon grass and bamboo

TOURISTS
we want to try something new

DOORMEN
come do the ping pong routine!
